Abstract
This project aims to study the redesign of a standard rack of a company in order to achieve
improvements through the implementation of the tool named Quality Function Deployment
(QFD). This tool is used in the informational design stage inside the product development
process and allows studying the customer needs as well as from the competence and the
market needs, helping to discover gaps in functionality and quality. In short, it aims to
discover all those requirements that still does not meet the product and bring added value to
the product, studying them carefully and concluding with possible solutions adapted to the
existing model
