RequirementsTranslate the source wording into questions an engineer can assess
Explore the engineering issues raised by a product rule, including scope and exceptions. Draft candidate requirements for review while keeping interpretation separate from the wording of the source.
InterfacesCheck how components and interfaces affect the assembled system
Investigate how components, accessories, integrations, or installation conditions affect the regulatory analysis. Clarify what the supplied component establishes and what must be assessed for the assembled system.
TestingExamine what a test result establishes about a requirement
Research the purpose of testing and technical documentation for a defined requirement. Prepare questions about the tested configuration, method, results, and the limits of the conclusion.
StandardsUnderstand how a regulation uses standards and conformity routes
Investigate how regulations refer to standards and conformity routes. For clause-level analysis, attach the standard text you are authorized to use and distinguish it from the regulatory source.
Change controlRevisit the evidence when a component, function, or use changes
Examine the implications of a component substitution, software update, altered operating condition, or new intended use. Draft the questions that determine which earlier evidence remains relevant.
Technical filesConnect the technical file with the design's regulatory rationale
Develop an outline that connects product description, applicable rules, design rationale, and supporting evidence. Use it to organize a technical-file discussion with quality and regulatory colleagues.
