Abstract
An assessment framework for identifying and measuring the impacts of I ntegrated Product and Process Development (IPPD) implementations is pr esented. This framework considers the four major areas of commercial e nterprise; the external environment, business strategy, IPPD, and impl ementation, which together form a closed-loop relationship. The holist ic nature of the assessment framework make it a useful educational too l for understanding the influence of activities undertaken to re-engin eer the various business processes and how this impacts the customer.
