Answer these questions before starting a new project

Do a reality check before starting your next project by answering these questions, also known as The Heilmeier Catechism.

  • What are we trying to do? What is the problem we are trying to solve?
  • How is it done today, and what are the limitations of current practice?
  • What is new in our approach, and why do we think it will be successful? What gives evidence that it will work?
  • Assuming we are successful, what difference does it make?
  • How long will it take, how much will it cost, and what are the mid-term and final exams?
