Engineers must understand the difference between requirements and constraints. Lets say a team of engineers are asked to design, build, test and present a comfortable chair at a furniture market 2000 miles away in one week’s time. They determine that the only way to generate concepts for a comfortable chair in this amount of time is to use some features of existing chairs they have researched. What is the team's constraint?

A design team uses Inventor to create a 3D computer model of their current automata solution. They create part files of each part, mate them together in an assembly file, and use that assembly to create a presentation file which demonstrates how to build or put together the automata. All of these files are then place on a technical drawing sheet with dimensions and a title block. Which step of the 6 step design process is this?
