  • Documentation of Success

It is important to document the product development process. While we don't want to create un-necessary paper or electronic files, there needs to be proof that each step of the process is done successfully and a clear definition of what success means. The actual product development process is usually a minimum of 100 discreet steps. More complex products are far more detailed. Therefore, we need to define what documentation clearly shows that each step was successfully completed. The bullet points above provide the minimum information we expect to see on the Product Development Checklist.
