Abstract
A methodical approach is created in this study to aid SMEs across Europe (Turkiye, UK, Belgium, Italy) in their product and process development endeavors. Methods and processes that must be followed are examined and streamlined, starting from the point of client contact, and ending with establishment of a pilot production line. This study provides strategies to help technicians and engineers create excellent product designs. Though most of the concepts and methods it will produce are anticipated to be applicable to the design of all types of goods, its primary focus is on the engineering-related aspects of product design. The formulation of problems and the conceptual and embodiment phases of design are the main topics of this work. It will support designers in SMEs with problem identification, explanation, and generation and assessment of solutions. To understand their approach and issues, a thorough search in this field is conducted, along with interviews with multiple SMEs. Additionally, to ascertain the SMEs’ network architecture and how their technical employees interact inside these organizations in a way that supports the creation of new products. This will demonstrate these SMEs' advantages or strengthen their creative positions in the face of global competition.
