Product management is a critical business role to ensure that the right product decisions are made to deliver customer and business value in a timely manner, while optimally leveraging the unique strengths & capabilities of the organization.

When product management is not well established, this could lead to suboptimal business outcomes. This product management maturity assessment tool helps to assess the current state and define an ambition for the desired state of product management as a role within your organization.

The desired state of product management depends on the size and maturity of the organization and how critical products are for the future success of the business.

The tool assesses the following critical success factors for product management:

• Strategic alignment
• Role clarity to drive collaboration
• Have the right talent to drive success
• Processes to expedite and improve decision-making
• Tools to support timely and high quality deliverables
