"I have used a design procedure that has three classes of design. The lowest level is a slight modification of an existing design, The second level is a significant modification of an existing design. The third is completely new design.
The lowest level uses a highly streamlined version of the total design process. The second incorporates more elements, and the third uses all elements."
For the above referenced process with 3 levels.
We make IVD devices- agar and broth in patented devices- so our product is more the container than the agar/broth, but we have many different agars/broths in our device. These are all different products. We can buy a commercially available agar and hydrate and pour it (minimal D&D), or formulate our own agar or broth (full D&D) or design an entirely different device to put our agars/broths in (full D&D). My question is how did you structure the 3 tier D&D process? Our process does not currently have any exception to do an abbreviated D&D process, but I would like to write this into our process. Having an example or insight from it being done would be very helpful!
