==== Description ==== 

Starting off as two different techniques, Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA), the development of DFMA begins as a way to reduce time-to-market and total production costs by simplifying the design of the product and designing for ease of assembly. [1] Originally, this technique was used in the design precess for automotive and consumer products. Nowadays, the use of DFMA has spread also to construction projects. [2]
