| Abstract | |
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) approach has highlighted as an important business concept that supports the managing of all processes related to products, from the initial conception to disposal. The efficiency and effectiveness of these processes are crucial to ensure the business survival. Thus, the adoption of a performance measurement system (PMS) should help to control and improve these processes, but the development of a PMS for PLM is a difficult task, mainly due to the unstructured and non-repetitive nature of the processes that compose the PLM approach. The problem that motivates the development of this project is the difficulty in developing a PMS and on performance measurement for PLM. Seeking to fill this gap, this research proposes to develop a framework to support the development of a performance measurement system for product lifecycle management. This framework consist of a method for developing a PMS, a compilation of recommendations for such development oriented to PLM approach, and a list of performance indicators and their attributes needed to define their application. To conduct the study were used two approaches: i) systematic literature review, and ii) multiple case studies. It is hoped that this research can contribute to companies wishing to develop a PMS for PLM and thus overcome the inherent difficulties of performance measurement for product lifecycle management.
