Context matters; A person cannot be expected to know how to make a bone implant if they do not know what a bone is. With all the necessary details and in as much detail as possible, the engineer should provide data on the problem. The next step after research is to define the requirements. This should be natural as it almost parrots the problem. The problem is taken and broken down into its essential elements. An easy way to do this would be to create a bulleted list. Making a list breaks it down and removes any miscommunication that might arise from engineering jargon. The essential elements clarify what is needed so that the engineer can now satisfy it. Brainstorming is the bread and butter of the engineering design process. The wackiest ideas, practical ideas and revolutionary ideas all start here. Everything is taken into account and noted. All engineers pitch ideas to be judged by each other. Ideas are born just like that, ideas. These ideas can be visualized in many ways, including: freehand sketches, tool-assisted sketches, 3D models, and much more. After multiple discussions, the ideas boil down to fewer. More consideration is given and even more will be cut. The survival game ends and the final idea remains. This idea is what will be tested. The construction process begins and a prototype is made. In many cases, it is too expensive and unnecessary to build a full-scale prototype of the product. A model is made, or in the case of something inexpensive, a full-size prototype. It will certainly be sturdy, because it is the first of its kind, but it will be so
