Analyze and Select an Alternative

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of the prototype, comparing alternatives, and selecting the best overall solution. Output is the final design choice.

StarStarStarStar

Evaluate the Solution

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve testing the implemented solution under real-world conditions and evaluating its performance against the initial specifications. Output is an evaluation report detailing the solution's effectiveness.

StarStarStarStar

Develop and Test a Prototype

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve creating a detailed design, building a prototype, and testing it to see if it meets the requirements. Iteration may be necessary. Output is a tested prototype.

StarStarStarStar

Refine the Design

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve making improvements and refinements to the selected design. Detailing for production and addressing any issues found during testing. Output is the final design documentation.

StarStarStarStar

Identify the Need or Problem

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve identifying the customer for the engineering project and understanding their needs. Define the problem that needs to be solved clearly. Output is a problem statement or a needs assessment.

StarStarStarStar

Brainstorm Solutions

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve creative thinking and generating multiple possible solutions. Techniques might include sketching, modeling, or prototyping. Output is a list of potential solutions.

StarStarStarStar

Select the Best Solution

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve evaluating the potential solutions against the requirements, often using trade-off analysis. Output is the selection of the most promising solution.

StarStarStarStar

Create or Implement the Solution

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve the actual construction or fabrication of the solution. Implementation in the real world or production environment follows. Output is the implemented or manufactured solution.

StarStarStarStar

Specify Requirements

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve defining the specific criteria and constraints that the solution must meet. Output is a requirements specification document.

StarStarStarStar

Research the Problem

StarStarStarStar

Activities involve gathering information about the problem or need, understanding the context and constraints, and reviewing existing solutions. Output is a summary of findings and a list of constraints.
