The imperative duty of the R&D enterprise is to terminate fated-to-fail candidates. These candidates are parasitic and become liabilities to R&D, impeding optimal resource investment in ultimately successful candidates. To eliminate fated-to-fail candidates from the portfolio, the disqualifying features must be actively sought. R&D effectiveness and efficiency requires improved decision quality and earlier attrition of flawed candidates.Robert Ankenbauer has successfully adapted Falsification principles in multiple commercial and academic settings. This methodology enables experiments capable of disqualifying candidates. Candidate Disqualification has been used at the technical level and the strategic portfolio level. Disqualificationist strategy incisively discriminates between competing hypotheses and deliberately identifies candidate deficiencies. The outcome is earlier attrition of fated-to-fail candidates and a portfolio consisting of candidates with ever-increasing technical confidence.
