INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION ____________
DESIGN REVIEW
FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This International Standard has been prepared by IEC technical committee 56: Dependability. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1992 and its amendment 1(1994) and constitutes a technical revision. The major changes with regard to the previous edition concern the inclusion of the previous amendment
which dealt with environmental effects (10.2.7), human factors (10.2.9) and legal matters (10.2.10), as well as clarification of responsibilities for the design review process and the design review process itself. This bilingual version (2006-02) replaces the English version. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 56/1044/FDIS 56/1064/RVD

INTRODUCTION The dependability of a product is enhanced through implementation of necessary disciplines during the design and development phases of a product’s life cycle. Like other technical and engineering disciplines, a design review needs to be properly managed in order to achieve its objectives. Properly implemented, design reviews enhance the potential for delivering a product of the required dependability, quality, performance, safety and potential for reduction in costs and delivery schedule. Both supplier and customer can utilize it. A design review is an advisory activity. It is intended primarily to provide verification of the work of the design development team, and to provide recommendations, where possible, to improve the product or process and its realization. Thus design reviews should be considered as a confirmation and refining procedure and not a creative one. Design reviews, regardless of frequency or depth cannot replace good product definitions, design specifications, and management of the design and development process. Used as a control process, design reviews can provide the necessary verification of the successful outcome of the design effort at a given time. Design reviews should not be confused with day-to-day management of a design project. The design manager carries the responsibility for the design and the final decisions for the response to a design review’s actions and recommendations. Design reviews when properly conducted, increase confidence that design and development activities were carried out with due regard to all pertinent requirements for a product throughout its life cycle. The application of this standard needs to be tailored to the needs of the design and development project or task in question and the organization preparing the design.

DESIGN REVIEW
1 Scope 1.1 General This International Standard makes recommendations for the implementation of design review as a means of verifying that the design input requirements have been met and stimulating the improvement of the product’s design. The intention is for it to be applied during the design and development phase of a product’s life cycle. It provides guidelines for planning and conducting a design review and specific details concerning contributions by specialists in reliability, maintenance, maintenance support and availability.
The process for design and development is outlined in Figure 1 and requirements for management of the design and development process overall are given in ISO 9001:2000. The stages at which the design review or reviews are to be held should be determined during the development of the plan for the design.

The objectives of a design review include: • assessing whether the proposed solution meets the design input requirements that include, but are not limited to: specified general performance requirements, dependability, lifecycle costs, safety, endurance, environment, electromagnetic compatibility, human factors; • assessing whether the proposed solution is the most robust, efficient and effective solution to achieve the product requirements; • providing recommendations as required for achieving the design input requirements;
• assessing the status of the design in terms of the completeness of the drawings and specifications; • assessing the evidence to support the verification of the design performance; • proposing improvements. Design review facilitates assessment of the status of the design against the input require-ments, identification of opportunities for improvement and guides the design manager towards appropriate action. It accelerates maturing of the product by reducing the time needed to stabilize design details, and allows product realization to proceed without frequent interruptions. Design review can also stimulate early product improvement. 1.2 Application The stage or stages at which a design review is to be performed should be determined in the design and development planning stage of a project or a design task. Influencing factors should include customer requirements, regulatory requirements, the size and complexity of the product, the use to which the product is to be put, and the consequences of failure. The cost to correct deficiencies in a design and the potential consequences increase as the design nears completion. Also, as the design progresses towards completion, so the flexibility to implement a change to correct a deficiency or to optimize the design decreases. Each organization undertaking design and development should adopt either a comprehensive design review programme as presented in this standard, or tailor a more limited one to meet specific product and/or process needs. The design review should be incorporated into the organization’s overall management system and, as applicable, each project’s schedule. Limitations of size and resources of the organization, project value, product benefits, risks and complexity, all influence the size and frequency of design reviews. In smaller organizations, it could be necessary to supplement staff with personnel from suppliers, consultants and other outside advisors. 1.3 Types of application There are two types of application: either an in-house created requirement for a new design, or a design requirement from an external source. In the case of the latter, the risk of a misunderstanding is much greater. Any misunderstanding could become a contractual issue and design review meetings with the client will be of primary importance to ensure that the emerging design meets the client's requirements.



61160  IEC:2006 – 15 –
A design review should be held: • prior to order acceptance to ensure that the scope of work is established together with all the parameters that need to be met for an acceptable design; • prior to detail design to ensure that the members of the design team have first-hand knowledge of all detail requirements. Interface provisions should be established and a list of defining documentation scheduled for submission and approval between the parties; • at suitable points during detail design to review all interface provisions and agree on the test procedures for verifying that the design meets contract requirements. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

[ISO 9000:2000, definition 3.8.5] 4 Management of the design review process 4.1 General recommendations The organization should establish and maintain a management system to direct and control those design review activities that are part of the organization’s overall management system. For designs reviews this should include: a) identifying the functions and activities needed for the organization’s design reviews; b) establishing the design review objectives and plan to achieve these objectives during design planning; c) ensuring timely implementation of the design review activities during all applicable design phases; d) assessing the criteria and methods for performance assessment, evaluation and accept-ance of the product; e) providing resources and information necessary to achieve required design reviews; f) monitoring the design review activities and, measuring and analysing the results for continual improvement.



61160  IEC:2006 – 19 –
4.2 Documentation requirements The management system documentation for design review should include: a) documented commitment and objectives for design review; b) documented procedures for management of the design review process; c) records arising from the design review activities; d) records of completion of action items and recommendations. 5 Management responsibility 5.1 Top management Top management of the design organization should communicate and demonstrate its commitment to the design review process to all personnel involved.
Achieving this includes: • defining the management responsibilities and authorities for design review; • ensuring the required resources for design reviews are available.
5.2 Design manager The design manager’s responsibilities should include but not limited to: • developing and implementing a design plan that includes the points at which design reviews are required; • selecting an independent suitably experienced person to chair the design review meeting or meetings, as applicable, or otherwise defined; • preparing and providing the design data required for each scheduled design review’s input package; • ensuring that actions and recommendations arising from a design review meeting are responded to and completed in a timely manner. NOTE For external designs, the contract may define requirements for some of these. 5.3 Management review At planned intervals, top management should review its procedures and practices for design reviews to ensure their continuing suitability, adequacy and effectiveness. This can be carried out as a part of an organizational management review process. The design review records can be analysed for opportunities for process improvement. 6 Design review process 6.1 General Design reviews require careful planning, organization and reporting. This clause provides a framework for implementation of the design review process itself. Specific details will depend on the product and the type of design review (see Annex A).



61160  IEC:2006 – 21 –
Care should be taken to prevent the design review from dictating the ultimate design. Decisions are made everyday which bear on the design of the product or process under review. If each decision is subjected to an independent review, the review team would, in essence become the designer with the potential for increased development time and costs. Conversely, if the first design review occurred only just before production or use, its benefit could be questionable as there may be little opportunity to influence the situation without a significant time or cost penalty.
The process for design review is outlined in Figure 2. The stages at which design reviews are held should be established during the development of the design plan. In determining the stage or stages at which a design review is to be held, factors to be taken into account include: a) The size and complexity of the product. For example: • is it a simple design or a minor upgrade; • is it a product involving multiple systems; • is it a complex system? b) What would be the impact of a delay in delivery or failure of the product? Project risk management tools given in IEC 62198 can be utilized in assessing this. The most critical design stage will be the conceptual design. This is usually carried out in support of a submission for authorisation to proceed with a design project or to enable a proposal to be submitted to a client. The major objective will be to verify the design feasibility, estimate the cost and to plan its execution.
The design feasibility or risk can be ranked as follows:
a) customized design based on the selection from a range of proven components and materials; b) design that involves the use of an unproven component, material or subcontractor; c) design based on the interpolation of existing experience; d) design based on the extrapolation of existing experience; e) a completely new design or application of unproven technology. Designs that have a high risk will require more design reviews as a measure of risk management. In the case of a new design to be released for series production the detail design could be considered to be that of a prototype. The need for an intensive design review of the results of prototype testing will be critical for deciding on the features needed to ensure a reliable final design. In extreme cases it could even result in a decision for abandonment.
