Ordered milestones
The questions follow the path from a basic idea to proven real-world use.

Before you begin
Answer 12 simple questions about what has been completed.
Choose No, Partly, or Yes. Base every answer on work already done, not what is planned. If you are unsure, choose Partly.
Usually takes 2 to 3 minutes.
How your TRL is worked out
Progress is recognised without overstating readiness.
Each maturity stage contributes one point. Partly completed work receives half credit, and the final total is rounded down so the result remains conservative while still showing progress between TRL 1 and TRL 9.
Partial progress counts
Work that has started but is not fully proven earns half credit.
Evidence matters
A completed milestone should be supported by a test, record, or result.
