The offering is rooted in a comprehensive procedure for a technology due diligence exercise The procedure relies on the recent advances in the management of technology (MOT), and particularly on the functionality grid, a key construct in the theory of technology The procedure is summarized in a one-page Technology Assessment Template that allows portfolio managers to perform a quick individual assessment This article describes the Template and offers brief guidelines as to as use (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
