Our building systems design and development process
Our building systems design and development process ensures that every product moves seamlessly from idea to validated, production-ready solution. Through structured collaboration, user involvement, and risk management, MMID’s multidisciplinary teams create reliable systems that perform in real-world conditions. The process follows our proven LUCID method, guaranteeing clarity, compliance, and efficiency at every step.
1. Vision
We start by identifying operational goals and technical challenges while mapping the needs of both expert and non-expert operators. Our teams explore emerging technologies such as automation, robotics, HMIs, and sensors, aligning the business case with usability and performance goals. This forms a solid strategic foundation for a successful and compliant product.
2. Definition
In this stage, we explore multiple design directions, validate them through visualization and early prototyping, and gather user feedback. We assess feasibility in terms of technical, regulatory, and cost requirements while conducting early risk analyses to detect potential weaknesses. Stakeholders are aligned around the most promising concept for safe and efficient implementation.
3. Specification
Our engineers define mechanical, electrical, and software interfaces to enable seamless system integration. We then develop a detailed product architecture tailored for smart and integrated building systems, ensuring optimal functionality, scalability, and compliance with building standards.
4. Verification
We build functional prototypes for lab and field testing to confirm performance under realistic conditions. Environmental, mechanical, and electrical tests are conducted alongside usability testing with operators. This stage verifies that every design meets safety, reliability, and regulatory expectations.
5. Optimization
Insights from verification are used to refine the product’s performance, manufacturability, and cost efficiency. Adjustments ensure that the final design is robust, easy to assemble, and optimized for large-scale production.
6. Realisation
During realisation, production samples and tooling are finalized, and all technical documentation is completed. Compliance validation confirms that both the product and manufacturing processes meet international standards, paving the way for smooth production.
7. Implementation
The finalized product is validated and launched, supported by thorough regulatory documentation. Once in market use, ongoing post-market surveillance ensures continued reliability, compliance, and long-term product success.
