A company can enter the global market only if it can fulfil the customer needs regarding features and quality of products. Customers are becoming more and more demanding and their requirements are changing all the time. In these circumstances only that company can survive on the global market, which can offer its customers the right products in terms of features and quality, products which are produced at the right time and place, at the right quality and at the right price. When developing anew product the company has to pay special attention to fulfilment of the basic market requirement, i.e. as short new product development time as possible (as short delivery time as possible). This goal can only be achieved by reduction of product development time, while quality and cost of the product should be taken into account at the same time, which is possible if the concurrent engineering concept is used. The basic idea of the concurrent engineering is concurrent execution of formally sequential activities during new product development process. The article presents techniques and analyses of sequential and concurrent product development processes, the emphasis being on team work, organisational structures and tools needed for transition from sequential to concurrent product development process. The article also presents the results of implementation of concurrent engineering in an SME which produces civil engineering equipment.
