18、isciplines is reflected by increasing documentation. As companies transferparts of production to subsuppliers, the exchange of documentation among companies increases accordingly. Thenecessity to interchange larger amounts of technical information more frequently increases the importance ofproduct d

20、 a document knows whohas prepared the document and which other documents have been used in its preparation;simultaneous or concurrent engineering consisting of parallel activities during the product life cycle;implementation of project management techniques with the registration of the document flow
21、 in the company;registration and proof of existing documents in a documentation overview;control and coordination of paper documentation and electronic documentation;clear delineation of responsibilities, processes, results and persons responsible for preparing documents.This International Standard
22、results from the obvious need to establish common principles for dealing with technicaldocumentation in a company.Technical product documentation Life cycle model andallocation of documentsDIN ISO 15226:2017-03 5 1 ScopeThis International Standard gives a method of establishing a flexible life cycle
23、 model and gives guidance on efficientand easy-to-understand handling technical documents during the product life cycle. The product life cycle takesdifferent company-specific requirements into account, in accordance with project management techniques. Forgeneral use in connection with non-company-s
24、pecific requirements, procedures, processes and products, it may benecessary to establish a standardized life-cycle model with defined phases.This International Standard is intended for use in companies, bodies of authority and other organizations who dealwith manufactured products, with the compila
25、tion and use of technical documents during the product life cycle. It isnot applicable either to services or software.This International Standard is intended to be an aid in controlling and coordinating documents, in accordance withISO 9001, ISO 9002, and ISO 9003.2 Normative referencesThe following

33、 divided into defined periods called phases in which activities that belong together aregrouped, e.g. product concept, design, production etc. The beginning and ending of phases require definite decisions (e.g.releases).3.8concurrent engineeringcoordination of parallel activities in the product life
34、 cycle, especially in the phases up to market introduction4 Determining a product life cycle4.1 GeneralBecause requirements are different and depend on the branch of industry, the product, and the internal structure ofa company involved, a standard general life cycle for all technical products would
35、 hardly be relevant. Moreover, ageneral standard would restrict the freedom of companies to manage their own organizational structure. Everycompany must therefore develop one or more of its own product life cycles, depending on specific productrequirements. Subclauses 4.2 and 4.3 present a general m
36、ethod for defining and describing a product life cycle.NOTES1 The tables shown in annex B are examples intended to assist in the development of life cycle models. The phasesdescribed may have to be edited, extended, deleted, etc. to suit individual company-specific life cycles.2 The descriptions of
37、phases in the design process are given in ISO 11442-3.DIN ISO 15226:2017-03 7 Table 1 General life cyclePhasesPhase 1 Phase 2 . . . Phase nName of phase Name of phase . . .

39、el of a product life cycleAs a first step in developing a life cycle model the phases necessary for the life cycle of a specific product must belisted. Phases are delineated by activities and conditions which mark their beginning and their end. The result is anoverview; see table 1.The beginning and
40、 end of a phase have fixed times which are determined by documentation and by company andproduct-specific requirements. Such requirements are often called “release“, “development valuation“, or“milestones“ and must be given in the row “Conditions, beginning and end of a phase“ for each phase. The ac
41、tivitiesassociated with a phase must take the product from phase beginning to phase end. Activities are processes,procedures or parts thereof. Generally, an activity is allocated to a fixed organization unit so that it becomes clearlydelineated on the activity matrix.The defined method can also be r
42、epresented by the flow of documents in concurrent engineering. To gain quickaccess to the market it is often not feasible to wait until all type-related activities in one phase are completed beforebeginning the next phase. Figure 1 shows an example of part of a product life cycle. The curves illustr
43、ate the workintensity for the different kinds of activities.The temporal aspects of phases must be determined in a way which ensures that most type-related activitiesbecome part of one phase. All activities in the phase must then reach a state that enables the next phase to begin.In principle, resou
44、rces devoted to activities must be used during the phase in which the particular activities occur.The product life cycle, the activity matrix (see clause 5) and the allocation of documents to activities (see clause 6)should be independently documented within the company. Authorized members of the st
45、aff must have access tosuch documentation. Documentation may be in the form of printed matter or computer-based information.4.3 Procedure for defining a specific product life cycleThe definition of a product life cycle is divided into four steps described in 4.3.1 to 4.3.4.4.3.1 Specifying relevant
46、product life cycleDifferent products in the company can have different life cycles. The development of specific life cycles will dependon whether the products concerned are the subject of single or series production, or whether complex systems orsimple consumer products are manufactured.DIN ISO 1522
47、6:2017-03 8 Figure 1 Allocation of activities in terms of time and contentThe decision on whether two or more products/product groups should have the same life cycle is a question ofoptimization: optimum adaptation of the product life cycle to the single product, or the rationalization/unification ofadministrative work. The more similar the handling of the products in the company becomes, the greater is thepossibility of using common life cycles.4.3.2 Elaborating product life cycle phasesAfter determining the relationship between a product or product group, the company-relev
