1. A method for running an operational simulation for a product, the method comprising:
determining, by a computer system, a selected maturity state for a model comprising a dynamic representation of a performance of the product in an operational environment of the product for evaluation;
determining, by the computer system, whether the model meets:
a set of criteria for content in the model for a phase in a lifecycle of the product for the selected maturity state; and
a confidence level of a prediction made using the model for the selected maturity state;
determining a risk of performing the operational simulation in a phase of a production of the product responsive to a determination that the model has not fully met a maturity level required for a gate for the phase of production; and
performing the operational simulation for the product, via the computer system using the model responsive to the model meeting the set of criteria for the content in the model for the phase in the lifecycle of the product for the selected maturity state and the confidence level of the prediction made using the model for the selected maturity state.
