This study seeks to analyze how the joint deployment of concurrent engineering and reverse logistics chains contributes to cost reduction and product-quality improvement. An analytical-descriptive methodology is adopted, combining a review of relevant literature with available quantitative and qualitative data to interpret the phenomenon under investigation. The research explains how applying concurrent-engineering principles curtails waste and shortens development and production cycles, while reverse logistics recovers value from returned or end-of-life products and reinserts it into the production process, thereby supporting both economic and environmental sustainability. The study also highlights the integration of these two approaches as an effective strategy for securing competitive advantage by balancing lower operating costs with higher quality levels that align with customer requirements and global quality standards. The chief finding is that the coordinated use of concurrent engineering and reverse logistics markedly reduces costs and enhances quality.
