Technology assessment: A new imperative in corporate planning

Abstract

There is an evolutionary progression in corporate planning for new technology which goes: technology forecast, technology feasibility study, economic feasibility study, market feasibility study, technology assessment. A translation of this continuum reads: What is possible? Is it likely? Is it affordable? Will it sell? Will it hurt anything?
