Many new essential oil-based aromatherapy products invented by researchers failed to be commercialized and ended up in scientific publication. In fact, many commercialized products were unable to survive in market. In order to avoid these failures, performance of technology has to be assessed. Technology readiness assessment for innovation of aromatherapy products or services represent assuredness to the products. Technological readiness levels (TRLs) are widely adopted to assess the maturity of new technology. The business process model of innovation performance toward commercialization is conducted using System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method. Through SDLC, the innovation performance system entity and Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) were constructed. BPMN which constructs notation of business process shows that the stakeholders involved in innovation performance assessment are innovator, evaluator, research center and investor. TRLs system of aromatherapy products were then developed for innovation performance assessment. It was able to define criteria, attributes, and metrics for performance assessment based on the basic concept of TRLs and aromatherapy. Finally, validation was done using Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). The result shows that the developed TRLs system of aromatherapy products is valid for performance assessment. It is also conforming to TRLs and aromatherapy basic concept.
