Appropriate Content for Design Review Documents

[Zanzi]

Does any one have any decent information regarding appropriate content for design review documents - I propose to use Preliminary (Concept), Crtitical (Detail) and Informal Design Review in the management system. All ideas are appreciated.

Design Fmea?

I guess Zanzi lost touch... :thedeal:

I tend to use Design FMEA's within my system from the point of view of Design Verfications. What I'm keen to produce is a simple checklist type document to ensure we are happy that all designs are complete and suitable for manufacture. These should obviously be aligned with a the FMEA's to ensure all design input requirements are fulfilled.

I ask the engineering groups to create an agenda first. It includes a review of customer requirements (kind of a contract review) to make sure nothing has slipped past, review of cross-functional design development (does part 'A' fit into part 'B'), customer concerns, and verification and validation development. We also include budgetary info on an as needed basis.

Design Reviews

We use a table in our Scope of Work (SOW) to identify all the "input requirements", e.g., sequence of operation, function, performance, statutory & regulatory, acceptance criteria and match "design outputs", e.g., drawings, component selctions (BOM), simulations and R&M calculations (e.g., stress analysis, R&M projections, etc.) with the input requirements. This is done station by station for a system and the design engineers initial and date each requirement's design output.

At a minimum, design reviews are conducted at contract acceptance (contract/concept design review) and prior to production release (final design review) and typically there are one or more preliminary/intermediate design reviews and a customer acceptance review.

In the attached file, the "Characteristics/Design Input Requirement#" is typically a sequence of operations with functional & performance requirements inserted as appropriate.

Hope this helps.

Zanzi,
Take a look at this form. It is what we use for design input, R&M, etc. for a fixture design. It has been modified to work for our product & die designs also. It has become a document we use for everything from Contract Review, Design Reviews and Customer Buyoffs.
