Uh , learnability is a very important factor here . Uh , is it functional ? Are there not too many functions uh among the functions ? And are the those functions that are there , are they useful ? And the cost . The target group . Is the remote really for the group we're making it for ? And recognability . If our company is If it is easily recognisable that our company made it ? And So we're supposed to evaluate it right now .
Project Manager: Okay .
Marketing: Let's see . Oh I have to say this was a little hard , because the minutes of our last meeting were not here .

User Interface: I go for three . So  Project Manager: Then we have to do the three . It's the Marketing: 'Kay . Is the company company recognisable ?

User Interface: Mm yeah .
Industrial Designer: Project Manager: Yeah .
Marketing: They are .
Industrial Designer: Considering we are not going to make a docking station .
Project Manager: Do we Docking station . That's a good point .
User Interface: .
Project Manager: But maybe because of the docking station the price of the remote can also be a little bit higher ?
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Uh and I think you can compensate that as well .
Industrial Designer: Perhaps .
User Interface: Mm .
Project Manager: So I think that shouldn't be the biggest problem , because it's very cheap to make as well .
Industrial Designer: Mm-hmm .
Project Manager: Do we think we gonna get the twelve and a half million ?
User Interface: Yeah .
Project Manager: Or what was it ? Marketing: Fifty grand .
Project Manager: Fifteen fifteen million . I think we will . If we gonna export this product . It's innovative .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Especially in America . People are pretty decadent . Sometimes .
User Interface: Yeah . Mm .
Industrial Designer: User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah , still I think I mean if we're n gonna make a scroll-button anyway it'd be more for the younger people than for the older people .
Project Manager: You can do more . Yeah .
User Interface: Ah .
Marketing: So maybe we should just re-focus .
Project Manager: Just put it on the market for everybody . You can you can change markets where by changing the front covers .
User Interface: Ah .
Marketing: Or specifically for younger people .
Project Manager: That's one thing you can change it with .
User Interface: Ah .
Marketing: That's true .
Project Manager: So you can also try to uh reach the younger people by uh putting fancy covers on on the market . Just as a test . See how it works . That's I think a good advantage .
Marketing: Yeah , I think then it would be way more uh popular with younger people than it is , than would be with older people . Even if it were their covers .
Project Manager: Yeah . Uh , uh then I think we can have our little celebration , right now .
User Interface: Hmm .
Marketing: But  User Interface:  Project Manager: That's it . Marketing: Party party .
Project Manager: Yeah . I think we still have to fit in one more questionnaire . I think .
User Interface: Where's the champagne ?
Marketing: 'Kay .
Project Manager: I don't know . I didn't get a message from the from ending of the User Interface: Uh , I believe y uh Project Manager: Oh I think I have one now .
Marketing: Oh you did .
Project Manager: Five more minutes ? Oh that's nice .

Project Manager: Then we still have some questions . If somebody has some questions they can ask them now . Or we can put these in the project folder as well . Maybe that's Marketing: Mm-hmm .
User Interface: Yeah .
Industrial Designer: Project Manager:   User Interface: Marketing: Project Manager: Export as picture , I think .
User Interface: Yeah .
Marketing: Yeah .
Project Manager: Industrial Designer: Marketing: Project Manager: Hmm . This is another network , I guess . Does somebody see the project folder ? Marketing: User Interface: Project Manager: I don't . Hmm . My Documents .
User Interface: Uh maybe uh they will save it . So uh Project Manager: Yeah , I'll just put it in My Documents
Marketing: Yeah , it probably will .

Summary: Though Project Manager forgot to prepare evaluation criteria beforehand, Marketing had analyzed project requirements and brought forward a systematic set of criteria, according to which product was graded by the whole group. Then, under the guidance of Project Manager, the group evaluated the project process. Eventually, the meeting stepped into the closing phase.
