Abstract
A method and system for capturing research decision flow in a Research and Development (R&D) activity are provided. The method includes defining an objective of the R&D activity and determining one or more requirements for fulfilling the objective of the R&D activity. Furthermore, the method also includes defining a set of tests to verify that the requirements are satisfied or the risks have been mitigated. Furthermore, the method also includes developing a task plan to satisfy the one or more requirements and mitigate one or more risks of the set of risks. Furthermore, the method also includes linking the objective, the one or more requirements, the set of risks and the task plan, to generate a linked information record. In an additional embodiment, the method includes identifying a set of risks associated with failure to satisfy the one or more requirements.
