Designers Making Tools? How R&D Deals With it.
It’s
often assumed that engineers are the ones that make the tools that designers
use to apply art to create innovation. But what is the case when this is not the
case? Here what.
The
prevailing notion is that designers are those who apply art to the science of
tools thus producing the value that engineers cannot normally deliver due to
their distance from the emotional contortions of complex interactions. There
are those that make the car run and those that drive the car to a win in LeMan.
But what of the case when the designer is the engineer and the tools that are
created are utilized and created in the same capacity?

Design and Engineering – A 2 Minds Model for Breakthroughs
The
mind(s) of the design creator are not one and contrary to the belief that they
can be one is the root cause for innovation failure. But how can this be
alleviated? Here’s how.
When
the necessity to separate the design and engineering function is demanded from
investors, labs, corporations and organizations who focus on the
compartmentalization of these functions, innovation becomes limited. Time to
deliver these innovations however is increased as compartmentalized function
based attributes of new product development organizations is well knows.
However in the small tight teams of firms such as Whatsapp (13 people in the total
design and development team) the coupling of the enginnering and design
fuctions can not be more easily seen. In A DescriptiveFramework Of The Design Process From A Dual Cognitive Engineering Perspective
we see the basis and tools necessary to make this happen. This is one of the
key components for the delivery of true innovations and ground breaking new
product development efforts.
