Tailoring complex product development processes for project-specific situations is a task currently inadequately supported and often carried out ad-hoc in companies. Existing approaches in software engineering target the automation of the tailoring activity, which is seen as insufficient in interdisciplinary product development. To address this gap we developed an approach using metric-based structural analysis in order to condense and visualize a process models structural information to support workshop-based collaborative tailoring. The approach has been evaluated using a semi-synthetic test case and an expert interview study.      «
