ABSTRACT
This research aims to develop a solution in the form of a set of guidelines, which allow designers to ensure the quality of the information in the PDP (Product Development Process), provided through PMI (Product Manufacturing Information) annotations. The methodological framework called DSR (Design Science Research) was adopted in the development of this solution. An eight-step flowchart in the solution development phase was developed. The results were seven guidelines and a tool to assist man–machine interaction. For the evaluation criteria as efficiency, generally, ease of use and operation were used. The objective of this work is to develop a set of configurations that allow the designers to guarantee the IQ (Information Quality) provided by the PMI in the PDP. Thus, the use of the proposed set of guidelines has the potential to prevent design deficiencies and manufacturing inefficiencies, contributing to increased productivity, throughout PDP, cost reduction, and improved quality in the final product.
