Artifacts #
What this step produces.
Elaborated Technical Product Vision #
A detailed description of what the product will do technically and which solutions it relies on, built on the earlier product vision.
Technical Feasibility Assessment #
An assessment of whether the product can actually be built with available technology, skills and time, and what could block it.
Make-or-Buy Evaluation #
A comparison of building a component in-house against buying or licensing it, covering cost, time, risk and control.
Techniques #
Techniques used in this step.
System Architecture Definition #
Choosing the main components of the system and how they interact, then recording this as the architecture. It sets the technical shape of the solution.
Technology & Process Maturity Assessment (TRL/MRL) #
Rating how ready a technology (TRL) and its production process (MRL) are, to see how much development risk remains.
Physical Make-or-Buy / Subsystem Trade Study #
Comparing options for a physical subsystem, built in-house or bought, against agreed criteria to pick the most balanced one.
