👉 Indirect engineering refers to the process where engineers design and create tools, systems, or components that serve as intermediaries between a higher-level goal or requirement and the final product or solution. Instead of directly building the desired outcome, engineers develop auxiliary elements that facilitate the achievement of the primary objective. These intermediary steps can include creating models, simulations, prototypes, or software interfaces that help in testing, refining, and optimizing the overall system before the final implementation. This approach allows for iterative improvements, risk mitigation, and better alignment with user needs and technical constraints, ultimately leading to more robust and effective solutions.
