What should a design review include?

A design review is a formal process used to evaluate a design and identify any potential issues or improvements. A design review typically includes the following elements:

  • An overview of the design and its purpose, including its goals, constraints, and requirements.
  • A detailed review of the design, including its components, features, and performance characteristics.
  • A discussion of any potential issues or challenges with the design, including any areas where the design does not meet the specified requirements or constraints.
  • A review of any alternative designs or solutions that may be considered to address any identified issues or challenges.
  • A summary of the design review findings and any recommendations for improvement or further action.
  • A review of the design process, including any issues or challenges encountered during the design process, and any recommendations for improvement or further action.

Overall, a design review should be a comprehensive and thorough evaluation of the design, including both its technical and operational aspects, to ensure that it meets the specified requirements and constraints.
