7.3 Design and Development
I actually value most of the changes in the new ISO 9000:2000, i think it makes it a much more user friendly beast.
However Design and or Development still has me confused.
Can you help me out, can we take an unusual example ie the design of a NASCAR Racecar, and specify what each section could be. This is my understanding;
7.3.1 Design and/or development planning
OK so we need a procedure for how design is going to be done.
7.3.2 Design and/or development inputs.
Could the NASCAR regulations be described as design inputs? ie Car shall weigh at least 450Kgs and not be wider than 1.8 Meters etc
7.3.3 Design and/or developement outputs.
Could this simply be the drawings that come of the CAD machines for the chassis and suspension etc?
7.3.4 Design and/or development review
Could this simply be the weekly project meeting?
7.3.5 Design and/or developement verification.
What could this be? Can you offer any realistic suggestions. How can you verify designs,? FEM is the only thing that crosses my mind.
7.3.6 Design and/or development validation
What could this be? In this example does it actually mean doing a product test? ie taking the car to the race circuit. This seems to be more like a product test than a design test.
7.3.7 Control of Design and/or development changes.
This should be relatively clear, some form of Engineering Change System.
Any help greatfully accepted.
