Design Review / Verification Processes
I am currently putting together ideas for a [I]Review/Verification Guideline [/I]to assist new engineers with developing their own process and assist more experienced engineers with improving their process. Below is the context of what type of input I am looking for:
The intention [B]is[/B]:
1. Suggestions on the techniques or the “How To” used by the reviewers/verifiers of design products - This is what you do when verifying/reviewing a document to markup and keep track of your review (a.k.a. highlighting, redlining, comments, check-marks, etc.).
2. Limited to methods used for drawings, calculations, reports, and technical specs.
3. An opportunity for you to contribute and improve engineering design verification by participating in this forum.
The intention [B]is not[/B]:
1. High level concepts or methods (e.g. peer review, independent verification, etc.)
2. A set of requirements that must be followed when performing verification.
3. A verification or design checklist of information that should be checked in a design document - such as inputs/outputs, standards, dimensions, document numbers, etc.
[B]Example: [/B]Drawing Verification – Highlight Method
• Make a copy of the drawing to be verified.
• Highlight each element of the drawing copy as it is verified.
• Provide specific written comments on the drawing copy.
• Highlight each comment or unverified element of the drawing as it is incorporated or a disposition is accepted.
• The review/verification of drawing is considered complete once all drawing elements and comments have been highlighted.
I look forward to any insight that can be shared.
Thanks!
