Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, the markets for electronic products are changing at a rapid pace. As such, companies have been forced to employ strategic means to handle the ever-changing market dynamics. In order to solve this issue, in the last decades, new product development has grown in popularity in the academic world. The time between the inception of product idea and its transition is the new product development cycle time. New product development (NPD) speed is critical because product life cycles are shrinking and obsolescence is occurring more quickly than in the past (Sherman et al., 2000). A review of the specialized new product development literature (Langerak and Hultink, 2005; 2006; 2008) and a consultation with an Innovation Manager expert revealed the existence of eleven acceleration approaches that can enhance new product development speed and profitability, and subsequently improve the firm‟s financial performance. Under these circumstances, Royal Philips Electronics, like any other large electronics company, is facing a changing environment and the need to accelerate the NPD process in order to be able to outperform their competition and stay number one in the market. Based on the above, Philips assigned a specialized committee to address their slowdown in LED Lamps development processes, identifying non-desirable bottlenecks. Consequently, a functional team with business leaders in the lead was assigned to find a way to remove the bottlenecks. Thus, a comparison between current Philips methods and literature methods will be carried out. As such, the harmful bottlenecks will serve as a basis for the development of practical guidelines by implementing acceleration techniques within Philips‟ scope to speed up LED Lamps NPD process.

Download or read book People and Products written by Allan J. Kimmel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By examining the interface between consumer behavior and new product development, People and Products: Consumer Behavior and Product Design demonstrates the ways in which consumers contribute to product design, enhance product utility, and determine brand identity. With increased connectedness and advances in technology, consumers and marketers are more closely connected than ever before. Yet consumer behavior texts often overlook the application of the subject to product design, testing, and success. This is the first book to explore this interface in detail, exploring such issues as: the attributes and qualities that consumers demand from products and services, and social and cultural forces to be aware of; design and form and how they facilitate product usage; technological developments and the ways they have changed how consumers interact with products; product disposal and sustainability; emerging and future trends in consumer behavior and product development and design. This exciting volume is relevant to anyone interested in marketing, consumer behavior, product development, technology, engineering, design, and brand management.

Book excerpt: Argentina has reformed its public finance system and reversed years of economic decline and deficit spending. This study recommends policy options to speed the already impressive progress. These options would expand the ambitious reform program already under way. This study shows how to sustain balanced public finances over the medium term. It describes ways to sustain price stability and economic growth while providing a cushion against unexpected downturns. Also examined are ways to improve social services while reducing the size of government. Researchers discuss key reforms that could boost the fiscal surplus by as much as 1.4 percent of gross domestic product. They look at ways to build tax revenues, reduce provincial finances, and make social security more equitable. They review methods to cut defense spending and revive a moribund education system. Additional policy options offered are reforms for housing and welfare programs and pension fund investments. The study suggests ways to improve the legal framework for a stronger central bank. Also reviewed are ways to eliminate unnecessary administrative agencies and to privatize public enterprises. The government's new health insurance program is examined. This program offers universal coverage. It lets contributors choose providers and includes subsidies for those who can't pay. It also requires a minimum package of health care at a set price.
