DCP
Dynamic Control Plan/Dimensional Control Plan. Design for Manufacturability and Assembly
A simultaneous engineering process designed to optimize the relationship between design
function, manufacturability, and ease of assembly.
Design Information Checklist
A mistake proofing checklist designed to assure that all important items were considered
in establishing design requirements.
Design Reviews
A proactive process to prevent problems and misunderstandings.
Design Validation
Testing to ensure that product conforms to defined user needs and/or requirements. Design
validation follows successful design verification and is normally performed on the final
product under defined, operating conditions. Multiple validations may be performed if
there are different intended uses.
Design Verification
Testing to ensure that all design outputs meet design input requirements. Design
verification may include activities such as: Design Review, Performing Alternate
Calculations, Understanding Tests & Demonstrations and Review of Design Stage
Documents Before Release.
DFMEA
Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis.
Documentation
Material defining the process to be followed (e.g, quality manual, operator instructions,
graphics, pictorials).
DOE
Design of Experiments
Durability
The probability that an item will continue to function at customer expectation levels, at
the useful life without requiring overhaul or rebuild due to wearout. |
