TLAPANCO RIOS, Ernesto Isaac  and  CASTANO URREGO, Carlos Andres. Management of Technology Readiness Level 1 (TRL 1); Product Innovation Management Strategy in Mechanical Design Processes. Rev Politéc. (Quito) [online]. 2022, vol.49, n.1, pp.7-18. ISSN 2477-8990.  https://doi.org/10.33333/rp.vol49n1.01.

From the point of view of technological management, the strategy is the key for a project leader in addition to evaluable validated and repeatable strategies. The project leader must also justify its strategies regarding innovation systems, such as the use of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) for the engineering, financial and marketing departments. This research gives evidence of the strategic activities generated by the engineering department focused on product innovation, specifically in the design process and technological maturity. This research shows evidence of the type of strategic activities by an engineering department for product innovation, specifically in the design and tecnological standards. It begins focusing on compliance TRL 1 specification, proving by mechanical engineering analysis how to efficiently standardize a die cutting with finite element methods (CAE) developing a process that allows certainty in die cutting that is not common or considered in mechanical design, the result can be innovative for the teaching of mechanical engineering and even for the manufacture of die cutting if there are computer tools or alliances with research and development centers.

Keywords : Management; Innovation; Engineering; Technology; CAE.
