What philosophical model is ITMM based upon?
• ITMM is based on the philosophical assumption that theories, methods, and other conceptual constructs are merely tools used to tackle complexity and provide tangible value. Underlying unified models are only of value as utilitarian tools. Tools should be measured from the perspective of their ability to efficiently provide benefit. • The underlying conceptual tools of the ITMM are: define, track, measure, tune, advance, integrate, communicate, incremental, lightweight, context, and breadth of depth.
