In this chapter the tools are presented in detail which have been suggested to perform the eight steps described before. These tools are of different kinds. Hence, specific tools or groups of tools and approaches are allocated to different steps of the Method. Tool 1 was already presented in detail in Chap. 3. It is used to analyse the characteristics of the planned technological innovation and to choose the appropriate steps of the Method. Tool 2 enforces migration-orientation considering the whole innovation process (Sect. 4.2). Tools 3-6 help to analyse the system coherences and to choose competitive solutions (Sect. 4.3). Especially the requirement specifications offer a good possibility to focus on the social, economical and technological attractiveness (Sect. 4.4). Tools 7-9 are used to evaluate the Economic Feasibility of the selected technological solutions (Sect. 4.5).
