Traditionally when an organization wants to increase its performance, product development has not been considered. Focus has instead been on other processes, for example manufacturing and as a result there are well-established theories on how to evaluate performance within manufacturing. Today the market is more competitive than ever and a high performing innovation and product development process is required in order to be successful. The aim of this research is to develop a framework that makes it possible to manage product development performance. In an abstract way the product development performance can be divided into three parts: efficiency; the ability to implement a requirement and solve issues, effectiveness; the ability to specify a product that agrees with customer needs and productivity; the return of the invested resources in the R&D process.
