Identification of Indicators for the Assessment of Technological Risks within Technology Selection

摘要: An accelerated technological change combined with shortened technology development- and life-cycles results in additional pressure on technology-oriented companies global competition. These are compelled to make decisions for new technologies at an early stage secure existing gain competitive advantages. The challenge is the right considering high uncertainty this stage. Hence, risks must be assessed concerning forecast potential become manageable decision-making processes. While approaches assessment of primarily focused potentials, holistic risk missing. In particular, there a lack required basis indicating risk. To establish valid such support selection stage, paper provides set factors as indicators risks. identification these based extensive literature review. Using systematic procedure, 83 publications were identified 697 possible initially compiled. Finally, 19 derived quantitative qualitative analyses, which foundation assessing technologies. procedure well presented paper.
