Analyze Concept Status

Use item status pie charts to view and analyze maturity of a concept and its components, based on the percentage and number of newly created and existing items in the concept structure.

Lifecycle Phase Maturity and Concept Risk

Enable the Metrics view of the concept structure to access the item status pie chart.

Use the item status pie chart to determine lifecycle phase maturity at:

• aggregate level

• individual item level

Item lifecycle phases in Innovation Management are mirrored from the PLM application the item belongs to.

Hover over an item status pie chart to view the number of items in each indicated lifecycle phase. Click the different segments in the item status pie chart to view the corresponding items highlighted within the concept structure.

A concept is considered to be at lower risk if items in the concept structure are in the released or production phase of their life cycles. The percentage of items in the concept structure also affects overall concept score.
