Abstract
The significance of business process approach has been increasingly recognized on new product development management (NPD). The challenge is how to build models to support it. This paper presents a model named PDPNet to provide it and describes an application case study in a agriculture machine enterprise. The data collect instruments are participant observations and document analysis. The results contains the description and an evaluation of the maturity level, considering the model proposed. The conclusion presents considerations about the support disposal by the model during the application, the challenges findings, and proposals about future research.
