I personally don’t have any experience in industry; however, we’ve had design reviews for our capstone project at NJIT. The way these meetings go is that each team has their requirement documents or test plan reviewed in front of all the other teams and every other team has to pick apart nuances in the document for the purpose of helping the project team develop a better document. My capstone professor has pointed that this is how it essentially works in industry; where the project team has to sit down and listen while their colleagues constructively critique the document. This also applies for a product’s design. The point of these meetings is to assure that everything is in check with the product’s design and that everything follows the customer’s needs and is following the proper regulations and protocols set forth by the FDA and such. I feel as though these meetings are very important for this reason since the project team may be blind to the faults in their design for one reason or another. These reviews can also let other people such as management know how the project is progressing and is good communicator for everyone involved.
