  • The QFD methodology has its origins in Japan, when it was successfully used by Japanese manufacturers in the late 1970s to increase the competitiveness of their cars in the American and European markets. From Japan, it gradually spread to the USA and Europe. Today, QFD is one of the standard methodologies (e.g. VDA 4) used in planning processes, product and process design and process improvement in industry and services. Its outputs make it possible to effectively deploy the FMEA method and other improvement tools.
