  text: Development engineers are most valued for their excellence in physical product
    development, but on the flipside, project managers face problems when trying to
    fit them into effectively running development processes. Because of the advantages
    of Lean Management in production (Lean Production), process managers often try
    to transfer lean principles directly to development processes, not considering
    that major differences exist between well-described production processes and new
    product development processes which include much more uncertainty and risk. Nevertheless,
    several lean principals are applicable in product development. This paper describes
    five lean development insights (LDIs) which were found when optimizing an entire
    product realization process. Lean principles have been examined and then translated
    to collaboration between product development and tool manufacturing at a globally
    operating German family-run company. These LDIs are meant to help project and
    process managers, consultants and developers to rethink their ways of organizing
    product development. The application of these insights will result in increased
    transparency, intensified collaboration, improved processes and quality, shortened
    lead times, and also eliminate waste.
