Information on System Design Review
The System Design Review is one of the
major reviews that is conducted at the end of Conceptual
Design to evaluate the system-level design to determine its ability
to meet the system-level requirements. The System Design Review therefore reviews and approves the System Specification to ensure
completeness and amendments since the last System Requirements Review. The
System Design Review establishes the Functional Baseline and
provides: a formalised communication of the intended design approach, a
means to identify and discuss interface issues, and a formal
record of design decisions and acceptance.
It is not advisable for
Preliminary Design to continue until the System Design Review has been completed. Pragmatically, however, resources cannot be left
idle and some work will no doubt continue.
The System Design
Review approves the Functional Baseline as well as
manufacturing plans, design schedules, personnel plans, and so on. All
major documentation and major plans are also reviewed at the
System Design Review.
The System Design review
could be considered to be a final, formal System Requirements
Review.
