Select Best Solution and Plan

This section takes advantage of the work that was completed in the last section. Whether a decision matrix, pro/con list, or other brainstorming solution was used to come up with ideas it is not time to select the best solution for implementation and explain why it was chosen.

In some cases just because a solution appears to be the best based on a decision matrix a team may opt to pick a lower scored solution based potentially on team voting or some other decision process.

By providing reasoning behind why a solution was selected, the reader can better understand the approach the team is trying to take. In some cases, such as with prototypes, testing of the device may provide results that may not have been expected by a team. By explaining this and how it affects the overall decision to implement, the team may be able to augment their testing section.
