Abstract :
Using data from 191 personal interviews relating to all 39 simultaneous engineering teams of an automotive development project in Europe, the authors evaluate their concept of collaboration in team-based R&D organizations and test the relationships of these constructs with relevant measures of team performance (quality of outcome, adherence to budget, adherence to schedule)
