Assignment Brief

Scenario
Design engineers are problem solvers who bridge the gap between traditional engineering and design. It's a discipline which draws on knowledge of manufacturing techniques, product development, technical design, and rapid prototyping to bring new innovations to market. It also focuses on improving existing products and the processes used for making them.

Assignment Briefing
ABC Company hires you as a design engineer to develop a selected product (product that you have already selected). Imagine that you need to develop the product from the beginning. The design team of your company needs you to prepare a state of art document to convince its management to fund the design product.

Problem Task 01

Define your design in terms of engineering. You may refer following points as a guide.
• Produce a design specification from a given design brief.
• Explain the impact of the stakeholder's design letter and the requirements in preparing the design specification
• Create a design project schedule with a graphical illustration of planned activities
• Explore industry-standard evaluation and analytical tools in the development of possible technical solutions
• Create a possible design solution using appropriate design techniques.
• Prepare a technical design report for industry standards
• Explain the role of design specifications and standards in the report on technical design

Problem Task 02
Define your methodology of developing the product. You may address the following to develop your methodology
• Evaluate potential planning techniques and present a case for the chosen method
• Demonstrate critical path analysis techniques in planning/ planning design projects and explain its use
• Use appropriate software to apply modelling, simulation, and/or prototyping principles to develop the right design solution
• Concept Selection (You may need at least 3 Concept for the selection)
• Reflect on effectiveness Morphological analysis
• Explain the use of CPA (Critical Path Analysis) for your product
• Assess all issues related to compliance, security and risk management specific to the technical design report
• Think about the effectiveness of the chosen communication strategy in the presentation of the design solution and reflect
• Compare and compare the completed design specification with the relevant specification of the industry standard
• Evaluate potential technical solutions, presenting a case for the final choice of solution.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of the industry's standard technical design report to produce a fully compliant finished product

Problem Task 03
Develop a CAD model of your product using SolidWorks. During the developing stage, as a design engineer you need to address the following consideration in your report.
• Initial hand sketching
• Explore how you have embedded the ergonomics into your product.
• Evaluate potential selection material
• Apply Industry-standard specifications
• Assess any compliance with the standards you have considered?
• Present the recommended test procedure for your product practically and physically?
• Clarify the role of BOM (Bill of Materials)
• Present methods and operations in bulk manufacturing
• Prepare cost analysis
• Reflect the effectiveness

Problem Task 04
Students will get three minutes to pitch the developed product following with a Q&A Session. The maximum possible number of slides will be five including the title slide. Date of the pitching will be advised later. Students should address following aspect when design the presentation.
• Present the recommended design solution to the identified audience
• Explain possible communication strategies and presentation methods that could be used to inform the stakeholders of the recommended solution
• Reflect on the effectiveness of the chosen communication strategy in presenting the design solution
• Justify potential improvements to the design solution and/or presentation based on reflection and/or feedback
