Abstract:
As products become increasingly complex, product developers have to make decisions effectively and efficiently. Therefore, the long term goal of the authors is the development of a new app to support collaborative and multi-criteria decision making in product development. For this, the basic requirements of such a new app are presented. Based on this, the methodological concept and procedure are briefly explained. Afterwards, a first prototype of the app with the core functionalities and the user interface is presented. Finally, this prototype is applied and evaluated by an example. In the future, the authors aim to improve the concept and to integrate further functionalities by implementing the presented concept as a real smartphone app.
