Within the scope of a research project together with the companies Alcatel SEL, Conti Temic, Knorr-Bremse, Rohde & Schwarz and Webasto, a methodical approach has shown that many development projects have significant deviation from the planned process. This leads to negative effects on each success parameter of the development task, especially on time schedule and profitability.

A concept was elaborated and effec-tiveness was proven in case studies.
