Finally, What is the difference between "design" and "development" regarding cl. 7.3 of 9k2k? I know that these terms have different meanings in different countries. May be it has been already discussed? Please give me corresponding references. Thank you in advance IP: Logged |

I'm not an expert. Design is the beginning of the product development. Development is the monitoring requirements for inputs;outputs;validation;etc. Yes? No? IP: Logged |

Reference Q9000-2000 "Fundamentals and Vocabulary" there is a note to the definition stating " The terms design and development are sometimes used synonymously and sometimes used to define different stages of the overall design and development process". IP: Logged |

ee, Perhaps this might help: Design - taking an idea or concept and translating it into a product (design). Development - taking an existing design and making improvements to it over a period of time. Enhancements to a maturing product, for instance. When reading the QS9000 requirements and the fact that they sometimes use terms interchangeably, it makes it difficult to interpret at times. This is further compounded by folks from different countries where words might not be synonymous or no equivalent exists. I don't know if this is totally avoidable but occasionally unfortunate.

it's like a cycle. when you design you have to develop it. and when it is developed you have to think of something else, then make a design out of it. as in PDCA, PD-is like the design stage, CA-is like the development stage. then you start all over again. IP: Logged |

Thank you gentlemen for your assisstance. But do you know that in previuos drafts of ISO 9001:2000 (CD3,DIS) the name of ch. 7.3 was "Design and/OR development". So it means that somewhere (in different countries or in various fields of business activities) these are equal things. Am I right? IP: Logged |

ee, I agree. You are correct about the DIS version. Looks like it was changed for some reason. Could be the very confusion you mention. As it reads now, it's like one word. I would refer to it just as shown. Design and development. No difference between the two. energy IP: Logged |
