    What This Quality Function Deployment Course DeliversSkills You Apply from Day One

    Quality Function Deployment Training in Mozambique is a one-day, instructor-led course that teaches the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) methodology and the House of Quality, the structured way to translate what customers want into the engineering and process decisions that deliver it. QFD was developed in Japan by Yoji Akao and Shigeru Mizuno and first applied at the Kobe Shipyard in 1972, and it is now used across manufacturing, product development and service design worldwide. The course suits product designers, design and quality engineers, product managers, and R&D and process-improvement professionals across Mozambique's manufacturing, food and beverage, building materials and energy sectors. You learn to capture the Voice of the Customer, build and interpret the House of Quality, resolve design trade-offs, and cascade requirements from product planning through to production. As Mozambican manufacturers work to compete with imports and meet the standards demanded by LNG and export supply chains, professionals who can design quality in from the start are increasingly valued. Start building that capability with Invensis Learning.

    The QFD Skills You Will Walk Away WithTools You Can Use at Work

    Skills covered in Quality Function Deployment training include capturing the Voice of the Customer, building the House of Quality, resolving design trade-offs, and cascading customer requirements from product planning through to production. Each skill is practised on real scenarios so you can apply it immediately at work.

    Capture the Voice of the Customer

    Gather and structure customer needs using interviews, observation, surveys and the affinity diagram, then organise them into the primary, secondary and tertiary requirements that drive the whole QFD analysis.

    Classify Needs with the Kano Model

    Separate must-be, performance and delighter requirements so you invest design effort where it creates the most customer satisfaction, and weight each requirement by importance.

    Build the House of Quality

    Construct the full House of Quality step by step: customer requirements, measurable engineering characteristics, the relationship matrix, competitive benchmarking and engineering targets.

    Resolve Design Conflicts with the Roof

    Use the correlation roof to expose where improving one characteristic hurts another, so you can settle trade-offs and design hot spots before they reach expensive prototypes.

    Set Engineering Targets from Customer Priorities

    Calculate absolute and relative column importance to rank the characteristics that matter most, then turn them into clear, prioritised targets for the design team.

    Cascade QFD Across Four Phases

    Carry requirements from Product Planning through Parts Deployment, Process Planning and Production Planning, and apply QFD within DFSS, DMAIC and service design projects.

    Quality Function Deployment is a structured, customer-driven method for translating customer requirements, the Voice of the Customer, into specific engineering and process decisions. Its core tool is the House of Quality, a planning matrix used across product development, manufacturing and service design.

    General

    What is Quality Function Deployment (QFD)?

    Quality Function Deployment is a structured, customer-driven method for translating customer requirements, the Voice of the Customer, into specific engineering and process decisions. Its core tool is the House of Quality, a planning matrix used across product development, manufacturing and service design.

    Who should attend the QFD training in Mozambique?

    The course suits product designers, design and quality engineers, product managers, marketing and R&D professionals, and Six Sigma practitioners. Anyone who needs to turn customer needs into product or service specifications will benefit, and no prior QFD knowledge is required.

    Is QFD training worth it for professionals in Mozambique?

    Yes. As Mozambican manufacturers work to compete with imports and meet the standards demanded by LNG and export supply chains, professionals who can design quality in from the start are increasingly valued across food and beverage, building materials and energy sectors.

    Do I need prior experience to take this course?

    No. The course introduces QFD and the House of Quality from first principles. Familiarity with product development or quality management helps but is not required, so beginners and experienced professionals can both attend and get value.

    Does QFD apply to services as well as products?

    Yes. Although QFD began in manufacturing, the House of Quality applies to any situation where customer requirements must become design or delivery specifications, including healthcare, financial services, software and IT service design.

    Pricing

    How much does QFD training cost in Mozambique?

    Fees vary by delivery format (live online, classroom or corporate group) and group size, so pricing is available on request. Contact Invensis Learning for a current quote tailored to your needs, and ask about group pricing if you plan to train a team.

    What is included in the course fee?

    Your fee includes instructor-led training across all six QFD modules, hands-on House of Quality exercises, course materials and templates, and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Request a quote for the full inclusions in your chosen format.

    Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

    Yes. Volume-based pricing is available for corporate and group bookings, which is ideal for cross-functional product and quality teams. Contact us for a tailored group quote for your organisation in Mozambique.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major cards and bank transfers, and instalment options are available on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you best.

    Is there a separate exam or certification fee?

    No. This is a non-certification skills course, so there is no examination or external credential fee. The only cost is the training fee itself, which is available on request.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for the QFD course?

    No. Quality Function Deployment Training is a non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on House of Quality construction exercises, case studies and team discussion during the one-day programme.

    What will I receive after completing the training?

    You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning. There is no external credential or awarding body, as QFD is a practical skills methodology rather than a certification scheme.

    How is my learning assessed?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you build and interpret real House of Quality matrices through practical exercises during the course, so you leave able to apply QFD to your own products and services.

    How long is the QFD training?

    The course runs for one day (8 hours). It covers QFD foundations, Voice of the Customer capture, full House of Quality construction, interpretation, the four-phase QFD cascade, and QFD in DFSS, DMAIC and service design, with hands-on exercises throughout.

    Will the skills expire or need renewal?

    No. QFD is a practical skill with nothing to maintain or renew. Once learned, the House of Quality method is immediately applicable and stays with you throughout your career.

    Course Content

    What topics does the QFD course cover?

    The course covers QFD principles and origins, capturing and structuring the Voice of the Customer with affinity diagrams and the Kano model, building the six rooms of the House of Quality, interpreting it, cascading QFD through four phases, and applying it in DFSS, DMAIC and services.

    What is the House of Quality?

    The House of Quality is the central QFD planning matrix. It links customer requirements to measurable engineering characteristics, scores their relationships, maps design trade-offs in the correlation roof, benchmarks competitors, and sets engineering targets anchored to customer priorities.

    What are the four phases of QFD?

    The four-phase QFD cascade runs from Product Planning, the House of Quality, to Parts Deployment, Process Planning and Production Planning. Each phase carries customer requirements one level deeper, giving traceability from customer need to production control.

    Are there hands-on exercises?

    Yes. You build a full House of Quality from a realistic scenario, structure the Voice of the Customer with an affinity diagram, classify needs with the Kano model, calculate column importance and identify design conflicts, so the learning is practical throughout.

    How does QFD relate to Six Sigma?

    QFD is a core tool in Design for Six Sigma, the DMADV Measure phase, and is used in the DMAIC Define phase to translate the Voice of the Customer into critical-to-quality requirements. The course shows how to apply QFD within both.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in the QFD course?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, course materials and joining details. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing a batch.

    What training formats are available?

    The course is available as live online (live virtual) instructor-led training, in-person classroom training, and customised corporate on-site sessions for teams in Mozambique, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule. Many learners opt for the Quality Function Deployment course online for the added flexibility.

    Can the course be delivered for my team on-site?

    Yes. Corporate on-site delivery is available and works well, because your cross-functional team can build a House of Quality for one of your own products during the exercises, creating immediate value. Contact us for a group quote.

    When can I start?

    New live online and classroom sessions run regularly. Check upcoming schedules on the Invensis Learning website or ask a learning advisor about the next available batch in your time zone.
