Tips for Concept Development & Tips for Concept Development & SelectionSelection
• When possible, use objective rather When possible, use objective rather subjective criteriasubjective criteria
• Useful to identify strengths of concepts Useful to identify strengths of concepts that do not make it through that do not make it through screening/scoring stages – could these be screening/scoring stages – could these be incorporated on winning concept(s)?incorporated on winning concept(s)?
• Include ease of manufacture or cost as Include ease of manufacture or cost as criteriacriteria
• Use concept development & selection Use concept development & selection process throughout SD1 and SD2process throughout SD1 and SD2
