2* Page 3 of the Resource Booklet describes a Magirus Aircore TAF35 fire-fighting robot.
Such complex systems are developed through the collaboration of many different design and
engineering specialists.
Critically examine the significance of collaboration amongst engineers in the design and development
of complex systems such as the fire-fighting robot.
In your answer you must consider:
• the design phase of the product
• prototype and testing
• manufacture and production.
Refer to page 3 of the Resource Booklet and also draw on examples from your own studies. [12]
