Promotion of scientific methods in Olympus Providing a solution, depending Providing a solution, depending on the purpose and period of the theme on the purpose and period of the theme 2012 ～ 2010 2009 Solution for Fuzzy Frontend QFD QFD TM QFD TM QFD Short time Setting Theme Short time Functionality Limited purpose assessment Fast Cause Analysis Problem setting type Long time Parameter design Long time Original QFD TRIZ Making Strong Patent TRIZ TRIZ TRIZ Short time Only Creation of Idea Cost Reduction One loop TRIZ ※ One method to use in some cases Evaluation & Experiment TM Long time Some loops or PAT TRIZ TM Risk Prevention Typical Use of Providing optimal solutions Using various types of methods according to the problem to the problem Methods 90 min Basic Training, applied to the theme 4 4 2013/8/13 2013/8/13 No data copy / No data transfer permitted No data copy / No data transfer permitted

5 3. Reaction of the engineers for scientific methods ◆ Engineers are busy, and have no time for their training. ⇒ They can not have the time for training. 90 minutes training is their limit . ◆ We can not grasp the engineer’s heart by the scientific methods. They want the best approach for the purpose. ⇒ Engineers want to know what method is used for their problem. Their aim is not to take advantage of the method, but to grow in efficiency. Experienced engineers hope someone will tell them how to solve problems immediately without learning the basics of the method. ◆ Many engineers have an allergy to the scientific method. ◆ ⇒ Almost all manager class engineers have failed experiences by using QFD, TRIZ and TM in the past. ◆ We can not resolve problems by only one method. However, it is difficult for us to connect several methods. ⇒ Evangelists of the method say they can resolve any problem by only one method. But they don’t shows us how to connect several methods. 5 2013/8/13 No data copy / No data transfer permitted

6 4. Aim of providing 7 solutions Using various methods naturally naturally while deploying 7 solutions while deploying 7 solutions Using various methods Engineers should have many “Drawers” for the Forcing to use the solution of problem. method is not our purpose! 》 QC7? QFD Statistical methods ? TRIZ TM Mr. B relies on his knowledge Mr. A knows the Many “Drawers” and experience of the past scientific method. for the purpose Learning by practice in close contact NG with the theme Evangelist of the method is not required.

Possibility of expansion in 7 solutions Concept of of connecting connecting Methods and 7 Solutions Methods and 7 Solutions is important is important Concept Technology Preparation Technology Preparation Core Method Search Product Design Production Search Product Design Production Development for production Development for production Project example TRIZ Fuzzy Frontend QFD Fish bone chart QFD Setting Theme Fish bone chart TRIZ TM Fast Cause Analysis Making Strong Patent QFD TRIZ TRIZ TM Cost Reduction TRIZ TM DOE Evaluation & Experiment DOE QFD Risk Prevention TRIZ TM ※ TRIZ includes Functional approach and Root cause analysis. 7 2013/8/13 No data copy / No data transfer permitted

Can I cut the fish quickly without remainder on the kitchen knife? You can solve the problem concretely. However, the range of ideas is narrow Type of fulfilling the desire Type of fulfilling the desire Belt- -conveyor conveyor Belt Got it! Expression of desire Sushi bar Sushi bar Why can’t I Brewery supply the sushi fast? You can obtain a wide innovative idea.
