This house of quality sample illustrates VOC vs. technical requirements.
It was designed on the base of the figure 3-3 in Lecture "How QFD helps in product quality improvement?" from the website of National Programme on Technology Enhanced
Learning (NPTEL), India. [nptel.ac.in/ courses/ 110101010/ downloads/ mod3/ Module%20 III-Lec1.pdf]

"As the customer needs and expectations are expressed in terms of customer requirements, the QFD team needs to come up with engineering characteristics (HOW’s) that will affect one or more of the customer requirements. Each engineering characteristic must directly affect a customer perception (VOC) and be expressed in measurable terms.
Implementation of the customer requirements in design is difficult until they are translated into counterpart technical characteristics. Counterpart technical characteristics are an expression of the voice of the customer in technical language and specifications. For example, a customer requirement for an automobile might be a smooth ride. This is rather an abstract statement, which is important from the point of view of selling an automobile. Technical characteristics for a smooth ride can be appropriate dampening, anti-roll, and stability requirements. These are the primary technical descriptors or characteristics. Engineering knowledge and brainstorming among engineering staff’s is a suggested method for determining technical characteristics. Figure 3-3 shows the different technical requirements which can address all VOC for the bike stem design." [nptel.ac.in/ courses/ 110101010/ modules/ module3/ lec1/ 1.5.html]
The HOQ example "House of Quality - VOC vs. Technical Requirements" was designed using ConceptDraw PRO software extended with House of Quality solution from Quality area of ConceptDraw PRO Solution Park.

This picture graph sample shows how does manufacturing compare with other industries in U.S. It was designed using data from the U.S. Census Bureau website. [census.gov/ how/ img/ manufacturing_ 2014_ th.jpg]
"Manufacturing is the production of merchandise for use or sale using labour and machines, tools, chemical and biological processing, or formulation. The term may refer to a range of human activity, from handicraft to high tech, but is most commonly applied to industrial production, in which raw materials are transformed into finished goods on a large scale. Such finished goods may be used for manufacturing other, more complex products, such as aircraft, household appliances or automobiles, or sold to wholesalers, who in turn sell them to retailers, who then sell them to end users and consumers."

The arrows bar chart example "Manufacturing in America" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Picture Graphs solution from the Graphs and Charts area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
