See how engineering leaders gain the visibility and control to deliver on time, with less risk
Holistic Engineering Management in Electronic Design
You Own the Whole Process. Your Tools Show Only Part of It.
Requirements are defined in spreadsheets and documents. Design happens in one tool, while reviews happen in email and meetings. External consultants, custom IC partners, mechanical engineers, and procurement stay aligned through exports and file transfers.
When something fails in the field, the answers are scattered. The engineer who knew them may have already moved on.
You carry the risk for delivery and quality, but you cannot always see where the process stands.
What This Webinar Explores
How Electronics Teams Manage the Full Development Lifecycle in One Workspace
In this session, Olaf Zinke follows a product development from its first requirement through to field returns. We look at the full development process from an engineering leader's point of view, and show where structure and shared visibility change the outcome.
We will walk through:
Capturing customer requirements, then linking them to design blocks and team members so nothing is missed at kickoff
Bringing external consultants and custom IC partners into the work with controlled access that protects your IP
Making design reviews and process steps repeatable and visible with prebuilt and configurable workflows
Catching electrical, mechanical, and supply chain issues during co-design, before they become re-spins
Using complete design history to speed up testing, certification, and field-return investigations, even after key people leave
Who Should Attend
This session is for engineering managers, VPs of engineering, and design leads who are accountable for delivery, quality, and risk across an electronics development team.
PCB designers, mechanical engineers, procurement specialists, and manufacturing stakeholders will also see where their work connects to the wider process.
If your team already designs in Altium Designer, you will see how Altium Agile Teams adds structure, shared visibility, and access control across the full development process.
