Managing Connector Design Changes
There are many possible motivations for considering and implementing changes to the design of a connector. Typically these would include:
•Enhance performance when requested by a specific customer or the general marketplace. (Competitive performance)
•Solve an unexpected problem with the connector design that was found after release of the connector to the marketplace.
•Reduce the connector manufacturing cost (Price competition)
•Materials used to make the connector are being discontinued by the supplier and must be replaced by an alternate material.
