There is always some debate over the accuracy of government labor statistics when so much of the economy is driven by services rather than the output of easily measurable items like steel or cars. And that raises fundamental questions in our industry, as executives strive to improve engineering productivity:
- How should we measure product-development productivity?
- And why is measurement important?
