Research Topic 047 / 200
Design handoff documentation omits critical intent.
Engineering drawings specify dimensions but not which tactile or formal qualities must endure.
Three-step solution method
- Annotate key identity surfaces, contact zones, and permissible adjustments.
- Provide physical references and visual criteria to reduce reliance on verbal explanation.
- Review prototypes item by item with the engineering team and log every change.
Key Deliverables
- Design intent brief
- Critical feature list
- Prototype sign-off form
Verification Approach
Spot-check engineering changes to confirm critical features and their rationale are retained.
Translating research into products and services
