New
product development and introduction is a major concern of
most companies. The successful development and introduction of the
“right” product or service can mean the difference between
your company’s continued success and growth and its decline
and failure.
The path is particularly hazardous today with the
increased financial pressures, global market considerations,
and off shore manufacturing.
As always, you must develop the right product or
service for your market, get it right the first time, and do
it on time and within budget.
It
is equally important that your product is safe for all who
come in contact with it or are in any way influenced by it. Indeed, companies are doing, and are required to do, more
today to assure the safety of their products.
A good new product development and introduction process
will help you to be certain that your product meets all
regulatory requirements, and that all required documentation
is maintained. This
will enable you to act quickly and efficiently if something
does go wrong, and will enable you to assess and correct the
problem quickly. It
will also help you to demonstrate that the proper steps were
taken in the development and introduction of the product and
help you to avoid costly and damaging lawsuits and fines.
Typical causes of failure
are:
- Developing the wrong
product or service
- Inadequate product or service for market requirements
- Product or service outpaced by technology or competition
- Inadequate planning and
control
- Cost overruns
- Over designed or incorrectly designed product or service
- Overpriced product or service
- Schedule delays
- Missed window of opportunity
- Performance issues
- Product or service does not meet requirements or
expectations
New
Product Development and Introduction Process
The new product
development and introduction process varies from company to
company, but the essentials of a successful new product or
service development
process are the same for all companies. This is
particularly important as you develop your niche
in the new technology areas, including
ecologically friendly processes and products, and new
applications to revitalize your older products. You must
decide exactly what your market requires, and define, develop,
and provide that product or service. You must also keep
in touch with your customers to make sure that your product or
service continues to meet requirements and expectations.
In short, you must have a very good plan and must have the
discipline to follow that plan. This can be daunting,
but Quality Systems Innovations,
Inc. has the help you need to develop and control your new
product effectively and to introduce it successfully.
Quality
Systems Innovations, Inc. offers a New Product
Development and Introduction (NPDI)
Manual to guide you through the
development and introduction of your product or service.
It was written by William C. (Bill) Fenwick and includes
what he found works best in over forty years of successful,
and occasionally not so successful, new product or service
programs. It is loosely based on the Product Life Cycle
concept and includes the best features of product life cycle
and common sense management. We believe that it is the
most complete new product and service development manual
available with over 300 pages of detailed information critical
to the success of your process.
In Volume 1,
Bill takes you through the entire new product development and
introduction process. He tells you why you need to take
specific actions and who should be responsible for them.
The manual is designed to support the development and
introduction of complex, software controlled
electro-mechanical units or systems. It is easily scaled
down for simpler products and applies equally well to services
when terminology is changed for your application. You
tailor your New Product Development and Introduction Manual
only to what your company and process needs.
A second volume
is available for those who would like further guidance in
developing process documentation. It includes formats
and templates for all recommended process control documents
(specifications, reports, logs, etc.), specific instructions
for customizing them for your company, and guidance for their
use. As an added bonus, we will
also send you free software download links for project
management.
Best
of all, due to its unique design, our NPDI Manual can be
uploaded to your company web site and viewed through a web
browser or any Smartphone
with an internet account. You
can collaborate with you new product development team anywhere
in the world. If you prefer, you can convert the files
to PDF format and store them directly on your Blackberry or
iPhone.
As always, the
success of your new product development and introduction
process will still depend on you and your staff, but
Bill supplies the process tools and direction to run your
process successfully. You save time and money by
doing things once, doing them right, and doing only what is
required.
