We argue that an effective performance measurement system based on performance criteria, and then gets the measure based on them. He argued that there should be a change in the perception of the performance before the performance evaluation system can be improved. Product development organization model Performance (PDOPM) assists in the development of perception performance, uncertainty regarding the effectiveness and impact in three general levels of activity within the product development function. Using our tool provides improved performance and perception of its measurements, which allows better assessment of performance. "Hide
