Answer:
True
Explanation:
"Technical Performance Measurement" (TPM) is difficult to measure because it has to show the progress of the technical parameters. It needs to combine the schedule and cost into one tool. This should also include the technical progress. This allows the manager to assess the total performance of the whole program. Thus, technical performance is as important as measuring schedule and cost performance.
TPM planning is crucial in the development of the Technical Parameter Hierarchy (this also includes the risk factors).
So, this explains the answer.
