The Trillium Model

This document describes a telecommunications product development and support capability model named Trillium.

Trillium is used by Bell Canada to assess the product development and support capability of prospective and existing suppliers of telecommunications or information technology-based products. Trillium can also be used as a reference benchmark in an internal capability improvement program.

Trillium is the result of a partnering project between Bell Canada, Northern Telecom and Bell-Northern Research.
