  -> Thanks, Phil. I'm impressed with the research backing up the other two answers, but I think they may be overcomplicating the term. I'm also unsure how they would collate with Kostenbewertung.
agree  Liliana Galiano: I agree because this answer is right.

Degree Of Implementation


Explanation:
"Eine Härtegrad-Systematik - auch als Degrees of Implementation oder DOI bekannt - kann das Controlling der einzelnen Maßnahmen erleichtern und Aufschluss geben, in welcher Phase sich die einzelnen Bestandteile eines Projektes befinden."
https://www.nordantech.com › Home › Blog › Project Management

Degree of Implementation:
Degrees of implementation represent a specific type of project milestones. They illustrate how close planned effects (e.g. planned savings) are to implementation.

In this sense, they represent status information for activity forecasting that can also be evaluated monetarily in procurement and initiative management. The following “degrees of implementation” (stages) can be differentiated in the planned procurement initiatives:
• Degree of implementation (DOI) 1: Idea defined for initiatives or planned savings
→ Awaiting release
• Degree of implementation (DOI) 2: Released for implementation
→ Estimation of the expected savings
• Degree of implementation (DOI) 3: Specific initiatives defined for the implementation of initiatives
→ Being implemented
• Degree of implementation (DOI) 4: Initiative implemented
→ Savings can now be quantified
• Degree of implementation (DOI) 5: Documents have been posted
→ Success can be reported
