Lesson 3:
Setting Design Performance Standards
2 Design Performance Standards
If the satisfaction level does not meet the threshold, then the
performance standards for some attributes may have to be
brought closer to their desired levels
If this is not feasible for any attribute because of perceived
cost or technology constraints, then the team may consider
excluding some of the less importance attributes in the
design, especially if the slopes of their
performance/satisfaction function are steep
If this relaxes some technological constraints and reduces
cots, there may be some additional flexibility to tighten the
standards of the most important attributes
Some trial and error may be necessary before an
acceptable solution is obtained

Slope is positive
Higher values provide more satisfaction than lower
values
Slope is negative
Lower values provide more satisfaction than higher
values
Continuous attributes
Satisfaction varies linearly between the two extreme
values
Discrete attributes
The continuous linear function is a useful guideline, but
judgment must be used to interpret the satisfaction
rating at the intermediate scale values
