Free preview: 1. Separate performance from readiness

A prototype can demonstrate a function without demonstrating consistent production. Readiness includes repeatability, reliability, yield, test coverage, maintainability and the ability to obtain the same materials and components again. The most impressive performance number may not be the limiting factor in delivery.
