Design: Major distinction between 7.3.5 Verification and 7.3.6 Validation?

[Rich S.]

What essentially are they looking in the design area? and what is the major distiction between verification and validation? I'm thinking if you know the end use product, you validate that it works in the application. If you don't, know where it ends up ,you cannot validate it. We're a couple tiers down and build parts to print, and sometimes never know the end use. Thoughts?

Thanks.

Please see the following thread for a discussion of just what you are asking.

Design Verification vs. Validation - What is YOUR definition?

If you are BTP (Build to Print) then you have no design of the part and do not need to verify/validate some thing that you did not do.
What you do do is design the production process, tools etc, in this case the validation is of the process itself and that it produces the part you require.

Howard is right, you only have to validate that your designs meet the expectations, if you do not do any designs and only build to prints then exclude the design clauses
