Glossary
Module 3C
Engineering Validation measures and analyzes the process, audits and calibrates equipment and creates a document trail that shows the process leads to a consistent result to ensure the highest quality products are produced. (Repeat from 2C)
Design Validation is testing aimed at ensuring that a product or system fulfills the defined user
needs and specified requirements, under specified operating conditions. (Repeat from 2B)
Development is the systematic use of scientific and technical knowledge to meet specific
objectives or requirements. (Repeat from 2B)
Manufacturing Development or Engineering & Manufacturing and Development (EMD)phase is
where a system is developed and designed before going into production. (Repeat from 2B)
Molding Process is the process of manufacturing by shaping liquid or pliable raw material using
a rigid frame called a mold or matrix.
Make-Versus-Buy Analysis calculates the benefits between manufacturing a product in-
house or purchasing it from an external supplier.
Total Cost (TC) describes the total economic cost of production and is made up of variable
costs, which vary according to the quantity of a good produced and include inputs such as labor
and raw materials, plus fixed costs, which are independent of the quantity of a good produced
and include inputs (capital) that cannot be varied in the short term, such as buildings and
machinery. (Repeat from 3A)
Total Fixed Cost (FC) are business expenses that are not dependent on the level of goods or
services produced by the business. (Repeat from 3A)
Total Variable Cost (VC) is costs that change in proportion to the good or service that a
business produces. (Repeat from 3A)
Marginal Cost (MC) is the change in the opportunity cost that arises when the quantity
produced is incremented by one unit, that is, it is the cost of producing one more unit of a
good.
Break-Even (BE) Point is the point at which total cost and total revenue are equal. (Repeat from
3A)
