Overview
Beating the competition at new product development and introduction (NPDI) is critical to a company’s success and profitability. It’s also a major challenge loaded with obstacles, targets, and trade-offs. Common best practices, like gated processes and cross-departmental teams, are designed to help New Product Development activities. A structured NPD process will help organizations to develop right product in shortest possible time.
