Study On Cost Control Of Kiosk Substation Modular Design Project Of X Company

Current economic globalization competition increasingly fierce,enterprises not only face the competition pressure but also come under pressure from the market for product upgrading.Enterprises have to research and develop innovation in order to survive for a long time.But research and development is different from improvement,It is an entirely new unknown project.And the risk is very big due to a lot of money without return.So how to determine the R&D project,control,research and development costs is an urgent task.This project is based on the actual case from X company.It is a research and development project under the premise that X company plans to enter the global market.Due to the lack of overseas market experience in X company,and the lack of comprehensive and specific consideration by the marketing personnel in the early stage when providing the demand specification,the development design was revised repeatedly,resulting in the tight development time in the later stage and the rush in making the prototype.Without taking into account the details and process requirements,not only did the test not pass,but also caused serious over expenditure on research and development costs,causing great losses to the company.Based on this background,this paper analyzes the R&D process of the whole project from the perspective of cost analysis and cost control according to the characteristics of the modular design project--saving manpower,reusability and development time.During the whole development cycle from project approval to project completion,the cost control of each stage for each module is the key of the whole project,in which the cost of the design stage,prototype manufacturing and test stage occupies the main cost of the entire development process.Therefore,the cost analysis and cost control of the project is particularly important in the entire R&D process.Only by managing the cost at this stage can the research and development cost of the project be within the budget,and can the initial investment return be realized and the company's motivation to invest in the research and development project be motivated.Only in this way can the research and development innovation of the company have lasting value and significance.In this paper,by analyzing the cost composition of each stage and process of the modular design project of X company's kiosk substation,the process of each design stage of each module subproject is analyzed in details.The cost of each modular design sub-project is summarized,mainly including labor cost,manufacturing cost and verification cost.Based on the literature theory,the process of the whole project was simplified by using PERT network analysis to make a network diagram of time flow,and the key process of design and development was found in the network diagram.In the key process,the cost of these design stages is further optimized by analyzing the stage of cost over expenditure and using the corresponding cost control method,and the optimization results are further applied to the modification of the design scheme,so as to achieve the purpose of the subject research.This research result has certain reference value for the same industry and other overseas R&D and design projects of X company.
