Information Maturity Approach for the Handling of Uncertainty within a Collaborative Design Team

At the embodiment stage of the product development process (PDP), the definition of mechanisms that allow actors in the design process to exchange immature (e.g. uncertain, incomplete) information is of great importance to ensure reliable communication among actors and for the good progress of the p...

Summary:At the embodiment stage of the product development process (PDP), the definition of mechanisms that allow actors in the design process to exchange immature (e.g. uncertain, incomplete) information is of great importance to ensure reliable communication among actors and for the good progress of the process. Computing systems, such as PDM systems and CSCW systems, are hard to cope with immature design information. This paper presents how a maturity framework can improve the collaborative design process. The focus is put on the collaboration between designers and engineers.
