Integrated Product and Production Development Supporting Sustainability 

Wlazlak's research centres on streamlining the organization and use of methods, tools, and mechanisms to enhance the knowledge integration across diverse disciplines throughout the product realization process, with a specific emphasis on integration of product and production development. This integration is important to facilitate smooth product introductions, minimizing waste, and advancing sustainable engineering solution. The integration of product and production development is important in tackling today's sustainability challenges.

Key skills and expertise: 

·         Integrated product and production development during product realization 

·         Knowledge integration during product realization

·         Boundary crossing and boundary objects in product realization  

·         Production development 

·         Production development as a part of a product realization process

·         Development of a sustainable production systems

·         Realisation of circular strategies in production system 

·         Industrialisation process /New product introduction

·         Supplier integration in product realization 

·         Integration of product and production development to support circular strategies
