New Product Design

▪ Every organization has to design, develop and introduce new


products as a survival and growth strategy.

▪ Product design is conceptualization of an idea about a product and


transformation of the idea into a reality.

▪ To transform the idea into reality a specification about the product


is prepared.
New Product Design

▪ This specification is prepared by considering different constraints


such as production process, customer expectation, etc.

▪ In product design stage, various aspects of the product are


analyzed. Also final decision regarding the product is taken on the
basis of the analysis.

▪ This decision can be any aspect related to the product, e.g.


dimension and tolerances, type of material for each component.
Need of a New Product Design
▪ Organization’s are required to design the new products for the following reasons:

• To be in business for a long time

• To satisfy unfulfilled needs of the customers

• Too much competition in the existing product line

• The profit margin is on the decline

• The company’s existing product line becomes saturated


and the sale is on the decline

New-Product Development Strategy
Reasons for new product failure:
• Overestimation of market size
• Poor design
• Incorrect positioning
• Wrong timing
• Priced too high
• Ineffective promotion
• Management influence
• High development costs
• Competition
New-Product Development Process

1. Idea generation
2. Idea screening
3. Concept development and testing
4. Marketing strategy development
5. Business analysis
6. Product development
7. Test marketing
8. Commercialization
Successful Product Development

There are five characteristics of successful product


development:
• Product quality
• Product cost
• Development time
• Development cost
• Development capability
Product Life-Cycle (PLC)

▪ Product life cycle (PLC) is the course that a product’s sales and
profits take over its lifetime

▪ The product life cycle concept is derived from a fact that a given
product’s volume and revenue follow a typical pattern of four
phases
Product Life-Cycle

▪ The four phases of life-cycle of a product: •Introduction


•Growth
•Maturity
•Decline
