A Road Map...to E.D.D.
Justified, well worded Problem Statement
NOTE A project can be started here as long as
justification for the solutions existence can be
supported. (Reverse Engineering)
All Current and Past Solutions
Solution 1 How well does it work? Why is it not
perfect? (Pros and Cons)
Solution 2 How well does it work? Why is it not
perfect? (Pros and Cons)
Solution ETC. How well does it work? Why is it
not perfect? (Pros and Cons)
Option 1 Improve an existing solution Option 2
Combine one or more solutions to increase the
overall success rate Option 3 Invent a new or
unique solution
