目前汽車產業逐漸開始增加電子化的應用，在未來藉由模組化與新裝置的導入，據估計在汽車電子方面約有80%的功能性創新。當進入國際化的市場，大多數的汽車中心廠都經歷到，在產品開發期與分散世界各地的外包廠商共同開發的困難。為了讓跨公司的產品開發變為可能，協同設計的程度應該提高，並同時降低資訊交換的頻率。 本研究即在探討設計結構矩陣（DSM)與DRFT的應用，其包含能夠呈現出作業流的資訊交換模型。同時藉由汽車電子系統專案開發的案例，來闡明模型建立的技巧與分析的方法。 Auto industry has increasingly changed its application of electronics. It is estimated that automotive electronics accounts for 80% of functional innovation in new models, with ever-more modules and devices being introduced. While entering the global market, most of automakers have undergone the difficulties in developing products with their outsourcing partners worldwide. To make cross-company product development possible, the support of collaborative design should be enhanced and the complexity of information exchange should be reduced. This paper describes the application of Design Structure Matrix (DSM) and Do-It-Right-First-Time (DRFT), which includes an information exchange model to represent activities flows. Important techniques for model building and analysis are illustrated by using an automotive electronics system.
