Proof of concept is evidence obtained from a
pilot project, which is executed to demonstrate
that a product idea, business plan, or project
plan is feasible. For example, in drug
development, clinical trials are used to
determine whether a new drug will be safe and
effective, thus gathering proof of concept for a
final product. The results of a proof of concept
are gathered in a proof of concept document
that helps stakeholders better understand what
the proof of concept success criteria are.
