Dept of Industrial & System Engineering
Student Briefing,12 Aug 1400h EA-06-02
Systems Design Project
Module offered as part of the B.Eng (ISE) degree
requirement
Students are in 3rd and 4th year standing; equipped with
skills and knowledge to solve complex systems
problem; time to apply
Students work in groups on an actual industrial
problem sponsored by a company over 2 semesters;
more like the real world.
Our Objectives Apply knowledge learnt in the classroom to solving an
actual industrial problem – real world problem solving
Study, formulate and analyze an actual industrial
problem with the goal of recommending a design
solution that is practical
Appreciate intangible attributes via teamwork and
practical experience in a real world environment
Learn to communicate by setting and managing
expectations with the client company through your oral
and written skills
Company Involvement
• Identify the needs or opportunities
• Have a session with the student group to discuss on the possible scope of the project which can be reasonably completed within 9 months (about 200 hours per student)
• Identify a liaison who is able to provide group guidance, operations and economic information, and plant access. This person will most likely interact with group members in the subsequent follow-ups
• Participate in providing feedback on the students' work
• $2000 per project to cover administrative overhead
• Industry Profile
Benefits to Companies
• You may bring fresh perspective or “out-of-box” thinking to old industrial problems
• Possibility of developing novel solutions which are implementable or at least “show the way” to companies
• Documentation of the study, complete with the problem, possible solutions and recommendation will be provided
• You are therefore the Consultant and Problem Solver in Handling Information, Uncertainty, Providing Insights and Good Outcomes That Have Persuaded the Company and Your Department.
The Process - Timeline
• August– Form Team– Meet with Company Next Week or After (Latest)– Settle the Initials– Start to Understand and Define the problem
• September– Discuss & Submit Proposal or Proposition (might need to
present)– 1st Lecture on Case Study Development by Prof Gong on
Friday, 2 Sep 2011
• January– Interim presentation to company & Examiner– Case Study Proposal, Review & Feedback
• February– 2nd Lecture on Case Study Development on 3 Feb 2012
• April– Final Report, Final Presentation to examiner and to company– Final Case Study/Teaching Note – Poster Exhibition
(need to have separate presentation)• Time Management is Crucial
The Process - Timeline
Study Steps
• Problem Understanding– Process Mapping– Data Collection to show where the company is
• A good data presentation is important
– Identify bottleneck and potential for improvement
• Problem Definition– Scope– Understand company needs and try to satisfy their
requirement– Keep company and supervisors constantly in the loop.
Why? Provide progress report.
Study Steps
• Model Building– Find the most suitable model (objective)– Proper assumption (validate or involve users)– Not necessary sophisticated model
• Analysis– Statistical analysis– Intuition is the most important– Collect sufficient and meaningful data– is the mean not the goal– Verification is important
• Recommendation– Qualitative and Quantitative– Present the results in layman language

Interaction• Dress code and Deportment • Update frequently on the progress
– Prepare a progress report• Keep your supervisor in the loop• Be punctual• Do proper planning before collecting data
– Reduce chances of over-collecting the data, or recollecting of data– Some companies might want a lot of data
• Discuss with supervisor before committing to scope of the problems (or change the scope of the problem)
• Minute down the meeting, and send the minute back to the company for them to see if you have correctly capture the points mentioned during the meeting
• Good attitude• Speak in the company’s language • Work as a Team with a united understanding• Learn to Handle Inherent and Induced Uncertainty, Awareness Helps
Evaluation Criteria
• Preliminary Examination (10%)• Final Examination (90%)
– The final assessment of your project includes the following items:
– working attitude (25%; awarded by supervisor/s; feedback from company will be solicited and taken into consideration )
– project execution and achievement (25%; feedback from company will be solicited and taken into consideration)
– report writing and case study development (10%+10%)– final oral presentation (10%) – everyone needs to present– Poster (5%) – Peer Evaluation (5%)
Peer Review
• You must complete an evaluation form (to be downloaded from ISE’s website) to evaluate yourself and your team members so as to ascertain your personal– contributions and your team members’ contributions to the
project. Do not discuss your evaluation with your team members prior to submitting the form.
• The form must be completed in confidence and submitted personally to the supervisor/s at the end of your final oral presentation.
• Details of your form would be kept confidential although the supervisor/s may discuss general observations and recommendations with you and your team members.

Stages of Team Development Cycle
Adapted from Tuckman (1965), Katzenbach & Smith (1993), Montebello (1994) and Jassawal & Sashittal (1999)

Note: there are many other models which explain team development cycle.
SDP Reflections• The Outcome:
– Did you apply what you learned in ISE so far (if possible)?– Did you learn some new subject-matter knowledge? – Did you solve a real world problem?
• The Process:– Did you learn how to work in a team (i.e. fellow members,
supervisors, clients)?– Did you learn how to manage a project?– New Contacts, New Friends
• The Experience:– Did you write and present well?– Your Thoughts and Feelings
IQ
EQ
AQ
Take an Industrial Engineering approach
• Be super-focused, Be super-efficient– Do not do things which you can’t write into your report (but this is
not easy to achieve)
• Apply process-control principle– If the process of the project is in control, then the outcome of
project is in control– If the process is not in control, then the outcome is uncertain.– What is a in-control project process?
• Meet your supervisors/company regularly, – manage their expectations– Get them to be on your side
• Constantly writing/presenting– You only know what you wrote
Others
• Meet your supervisors and set the time to meet company ASAP.
