Members & Roles: Structural Accountability Protocol

In a high-stakes engineering environment, Edelweis enforces a protocol that clearly bifurcates Creative Execution from Critical Verification. By defining strict boundaries between the Lead Engineer (Creator) and the Reviewer (Gatekeeper), we ensure no single point of failure exists in the design-to-manufacturing pipeline.

1. The Lead Engineer (Creator & Owner)

The primary architect responsible for "As-Designed" integrity and sub-system integration:

• •
  Design Ownership: Translating project charters into 3D geometry using Master Modeling and Large Assembly protocols.
• •
  Physics Validation: Performing initial FEA and CFD simulations to prove designs meet target Safety Factors.
• •
  Documentation Execution: Generating Drawing Standards, BOM Structures, and QC Checklists.

2. The Reviewer (Auditor & Gatekeeper)

A senior-level engineer with "Veto Power" to identify flaws missed due to confirmation bias:

• •
  Simulation Audit: Verifying Boundary Condition Standards and Mesh Sensitivity. Auditing the math behind results.
• •
  Tolerance Validation: Stress-testing Stack-up Analysis to ensure manufacturing success even in "worst-case" scenarios.
• •
  Safety Factor Sign-off: Final signature required to transition parts from "In-Work" to "Released" status in PDM.

3. Conflict Resolution & Peer Review

4. Role-Based Permissions in PDM

Roles are enforced through digital infrastructure to prevent unauthorized design changes:
