DISH WASHING EXPERIENCE ININDIAN KITCHEN
WE KNOW WHAT YOU LOOKING FOR?
Hey, I’m Lakshmi Home makerwe have something to look on our story.
We are family of 5 members inculdes child + grand parents + us, depends on Monthly salary.
Each day, we Prepare 3 different meals per Day + Morning coffee + Evening tea + Night milk.
-Tiffen for Breakfast.-Meals for Lunch.-Tiffen for Dinner.
I have to use the same different vessels,that occupies different quantities. So minimum3 times dish washing per day for meal.
In between every meal, habit of drinking tea or eat something, requires a wash.
Approx 10x times a Day requiresDishwashing.
Technological robustness in digital appliances offers luxuries in life with limited to liability, but only for the people who can afford. Innovation? or Business strategy?
Dish washing Experience are enjoyable,but notfrequently.
I have something more to express!
Experience of Pain
Define the Problem:Understanding the user environment
UserDish washer
Spactial Issue for vessels
Lack ofInvolvement &Repetation ofprocess
Smelly Environment
WaterScarcity
Fatigue(Mental & physcial)
Healthissues(detergentallergy)
Why we following the same standard process?
Super system: Contractor or builder who build the building (doesn’t care how they use?)
System: User. (Rental building & Own house)
Sub system: kitchen Equipment provider - doesn’t care how he/she going
to use products.
Plausible root causes? - Empathy Why Dish washers not so popular in india?
Apart from Type of Indian foods.
Functional Attribute Process:
1. Soaking vessels - with water or soap2. Provide detergent to scrubber (often repeats till 3rd process completes) 3. Trasmit force, Accomodate grip - Scrub remove dirt in vessels4. Sort vessels 5. Limit water and Control Faucets - water flows (often repeats till process 6 gets completed) 6. Rinse vessels7. Dry water from vessels
Understanding Present System & the Ideal System
-Water resources are cheap in India.-Cost of Dish washer 30,000 + Installation + Electricity + oper-ational maintenance = 40,000 INR approx.Monthly Electricty bill + other consumables.-Usability of Existing vessels in dishwasher are not convenient.

“Are we designing products for people or process”
Innovation in Complex system does not looks simple.
By Applying separation principles on the process with respect to human factors, leads to low cost efficiency model with “Affordability & more adoptability”These are some approximate Ideal solutions, still we can extract the better and best.
