Average time-to-market in days for all products (including product improvements and extensions)
This measure calculates the average number of calendar days required to design, test market, and manufacture/deliver all types of new products (including product improvements and extensions). The cycle time begins with the "design and develop product/service" process (when resources are first assigned) and ends when the product/service is ready for sale. This measure is part of a set of Cycle Time measures that help companies analyze the duration of the process "develop and manage products and services" from beginning to end.
