Then find your goals...

STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track

Featuring 996 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Manufacturing Readiness Level improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 996 standard requirements:


1. Can a cost be associated with each critical component with reasonable confidence or will additional information/development be required?
   
   

2. Is the trl chosen an appropriate assessment of the technology readiness based on the description, costs and activities to date?
   
   

3. Are the performance requirements set too high that the technology will need more than average time or cost to develop?
   
   

4. Are form, fit, and function constraints and manufacturing capabilities identified for the preferred systems concepts?
   
   

5. Have projected lead times been identified for all difficult to obtain, difficult to process, or hazardous materials?
   
   

6. Has the system production cost model been updated, allocated to subsystem level, and tracked against targets?
   
   

7. What is the evidence that other organizations have added technical capabilities since the EERE investment?
   
   

8. What is the range of tolerances for the key properties and subsystems to retain functionality/performance?
   
   

9. Is the supply chain established and stable with materials available to meet planned low rate production?
   
   

10. How has entry of new organizations into the supply chain changed since the infrastructure was expanded?

Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'

This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Manufacturing Readiness Level investments work better.

This Manufacturing Readiness Level All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
