New Product Development Excellence
Executive Briefing

In this briefing, we help executives identify opportunities to bring world-class new product development practices into the organization.  A goal of this executive briefing is to help create awareness and answers for these questions:

  •  Bottom Line - What is the potential for improved profitability? 

  •  Gaps - How does our organization stack up?

  •  Speed - What is rapid development?  What are the tradeoffs?

  •  Portfolios - What are the key factors for measuring the performance of a product innovation portfolio?

  •  Pipelines - How should our firm recognize and correctly apply resources to a portfolio of projects?  Which process enable good performance, and what are their potential drawbacks?

  •  Building cross functional "buy in" - Are we working together as effectively as we should? Does everyone understand how they contribute to new product development excellence?

  •  The fuzzy front end - Does our organization manage the FFE appropriately to minimize frustration and wasted effort.

  •  Metrics - What are appropriate metrics?  Is a management dashboard in your organization's future?

  •  Technology -  How can technology and concurrent engineering benefit your organization?  What are the disadvantages?  What is your firm's technology strategy?

Catalyst can help you improve your product innovation capability.
