What is Industrial Design?
» The professional service of creating and developing concepts and specifications that optimize the function, value and appearance of products and systems for the mutual benefit of both user and manufacturer.
» ID exists within the context of cooperative working relationships with other members of a development group. Typical groups include management, marketing, engineering and manufacturing specialists. The industrial designer expresses concepts that embody all relevant design criteria determined by the group.

Design philosophy attributes that help define form, relationships, interfaces, etc“dynamic rhythm” for example
Physical or interface details in combination with the Principles, Positioning and aligned to the Core Values are the makeup of the Design Language – These are updated over time.

Vision - PQ
» Anecdotal evidence and internal knowledge tell us that consumers are great at comparing the level of perceived quality (PQ) of products at point-of-sale, and it can have a significant affect on consumer purchase decisions.
50
Vision - PQ
» Research also tells us that consumers are not great at articulating the reasons for their actions and choices, and that their performance with a product does not always correlate with their preference for a product.▪ Ease of use is just part of the user experience (UX) story.
51
Vision - PQ
» How can we improve the PQ of our products over our competition (or even different design iterations) if we don’t know exactly how consumers are evaluating PQ?

Final Output
» The output of this assessment is a PQ Scorecard that would be used as a deliverable during the CDI process as part of an overall UX assessment.▪ Contains specific, measurable,
and prioritized guidelines for PQ.
▪ Ensures systematic and consistent application of PQ knowledge across products.
» Using the PQ Scorecard is an effective way to benchmark the PQ of our products as well as our competitors.▪ It identifies specific focus areas to
improve over our competition.
