The R&D (Research & Development) process of mobile application can be regarded as a complex system engineering that needs to take into account a variety of influencing elements, such as customer’s demands, engineering measures and business goals etc., as well as their interplay. A novel decision support platform is proposed to assist project managers in determining the optimal technical measures with implementation degrees and resource allocation scheme. Specially, the HDQ (House of Development Quality) is designed to collect essential data and information as well as reflect correlations among elements, which can effectively connect isolated information islands. Through the transform of HDQ, a multi-objective programming model is constructed to meet customers’ overall demands and specific requirements. A combination of specified technical measures and resource allocation can be obtained under ideal conditions. Additionally, the extended model considering resource substitution is designed to realize further improvement by effectively utilizing the surplus resource in the above optimal condition, demonstrating the advantage of proper managerial arrangement and resource deployment. Finally, the R&D case of family financial management application is conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the suggested method, which offers a new perspective on mobile application R&D project management.
