Research of Synergy Product Maturity Based on Maturity Cycle

Abstract:

Product Maturity Level (PML) has a great significance as an important tool in impelling the development of professional product research and realizing optimization of supply and product continuous improvement. Through analyzing Product Maturity Cycle, this paper proposes Application Readiness Level (ARL) based on the study of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) and Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL). It improves the evaluation model of PML and expands the scope of PML. Meanwhile, this paper regarded synergy products as research object, combining the backwardness advantage of product development and the aspiration of innovation in China, it develops a new PML evaluation model of high technology products. The characteristic factors, influencing factors of PML and its grades dividing had also been deeply studied and systematically analyzed, which offers guidance to product development and marketization in China.
