This paper presents an initial metamodel for product development
projects. It enables to model different entities (nodes), relationships (edges) and their
attributes, understanding product development projects as complex systems. The
modeling approach shows potential to provide helpful input for project managers in
situations when projects deviate from plan during their execution. The potential was
evaluated in a simplified use case. First results are presented and paths for future
development of the approach are derived.
