Abstract
While time to market was the most critical measure of performance in product development throughout the 1990s, the recent economic downturn has caused a shift in priorities. Today, lowering product development costs is the key focus. To this end, companies are looking for ways to improve R&D and engineering productivity - that is, the product output per dollar invested in engineering.
