What is conceptual design, DBM, EDS, FEED?

Hello Mike the english name for Miguel,

Conceptual design is the preparatory stage of the whole design process. At these stage some rough sketch, drawings like paintings are presented to give a general view of the project. There are also rough estimates regarding cost of the project. The costs are usually arrive using benchmark, meaning, how much it cost when it was done in this and that countries.

Design Basis Memoranda are issued to guide the desing consultant on their activities. These are important document for designer since any deviation from the memoranda is a variation to their scope of work. For example, the client require the designer for 35 story building, after halway to the work, the client decided to change from 35 storey to 50 storey. So the new instruction from the client is a deviation from the design memoranda.

Engineering Design Specifications are bascis documents in projects and construction. When a project is conceived, engineering specification is a must. Basically, this relates to the quality of the product.
