Abstract
Modern product development concept is based on the product as a technical system. Developed model in this paper connects the product as a technical system and designer. Different models of decision making with different level of procedure formalizing for the choice of an acceptable conceptual engineering design are analysed and presented. Proposed multiple attribute decision-making models based on the mathematical formalisms analyses the acceptability level of n variant solutions. Through this analysis it is possible to rank particular variant solutions and determinate which solution is most acceptable.
