 Using DFMEAs to Improve DVP&Rs

Design Verification Plans (DVP&Rs)

The software allows you to add a design verification plan and report (DVP&R) analysis for any item in the system hierarchy. A DVP&R is a worksheet that is used to track the progress of design verification tests. The lessons learned from the design FMEA can be a valuable input to the DVP&R (and vice-versa).

If you wish to be able to add a DVP&R analysis to an item in your project, select the Enable Legacy DVP&R check box Configurable Settings page of the Project Properties window. When this option is selected, the Add DVP&R command will be visible on the Analyses tab of the ribbon.

The DVP&R analysis tab will open in the Analysis panel. In addition, the DVP&R icon will appear in the corresponding column in the System Hierarchy tab of the System panel (if that column has been selected for display on your computer).

The DVP&R analysis contains two tabs: a Header tab and a Worksheet tab. The Header tab contains general information about the entire analysis that will be displayed in the header of the report output while the Worksheet tab contains the analysis data. A DVP&R can have zero, one or many plan records. Each plan can be associated with one or many report records. The background color in each cell of the DVP&R worksheet identifies the record type (plan = blue and report = green).

Typically, DVP&Rs are used in one of two ways:
