Why do so few product development programs make that connection between the product specification document content and the released product? It seems to be such a common thing that these two don’t connect that organizations don’t even bother to review or analyze this after release.
The mindset at that point seems to be:
- We did the best we could with the resources we had
- All product change from their original specifications
- It transformed into a product that better fits our updated understanding of what could be made to satisfy the market
