Document Summary
Analyze and evaluate your concepts, choose the best solution for your project. Within the context of the design specifications/metrics previously developed. An option that will be further refined through iteration. Technology available to solve a problem is not static it evolves and matures over time. Immature technology may lead to a poor-quality product or cost overruns. Each requirement transformed into yes, maybe, no questions. Eliminate concepts with many no-go answers highly unlikely to be the best concept. Consider modifying concepts with few no-go responses may be worth modifying the design threshold for this depends on quality of other concepts. Eliminates less viable concepts with a minimum of analysis. Efficiency of screening depends on overall quality of other concepts. Divide by the net total to get a weight. One concept needs to be the baseline or datum. The concept that the designer thinks is best. How well does this concept meet this requirement, relative to the datum? .
