Among engineers, “design process” is a well-understood term. It may have slightly different elements across the various disciplines, but generally, it’s a methodical series of steps in which the mathematics and engineering sciences are applied in an iterative manner to optimally meet a stated objective. The architecture and design of a control building follows engineering design process principles. When it doesn’t, companies often end up with costly issues and high-risk decisions to make.
Human factors engineering (HFE), also called ergonomics, applies scientific theory, principles, data and methods to optimize human wellbeing to spaces, devices and systems for human use. HFE deals with how people and their environment mesh. Breaking it down further, physical HFE deals with how the human body interacts with furniture and technology.
