Trying to get my head around 7.3 Design and development. What is the criteria for design and therefore a design review? At my company we generally have two types of projects that go through our engineering department. First, customer has an idea and we design something from scratch based on customer's desires/needs etc. I have no doubt that this will require design review. The second type of work is the customer has already designed the product, and our engineering team reviews the customer drawing to determine whether it gives enough information for the shop to build. If it is, the customer's drawing (controlled) goes to the floor. If not, we would create shop drawings from the customer's supplied drawings to convey information the shop needs. Question - is the second type actual design? If not, does it need to go through design reviews etc as indicated in ISO9001:2000 7.3
