Product Development & Market Position

The successful development and introduction of new, and the improvement of existing, products has a significant impact on the profitability and growth of the business. That value proposition -- turning labor, material and know-how into marketable products – drives your profit engine. Whether that process is a unique product or product attribute, or a new or enhanced process, that uniqueness and its successful development and implementation will have a major impact on your profitability and market position.

What drives your market position?

  • Are you the low cost producer for your market segment? If all you compete on is price, are you supplying from Asia and Eastern Europe, or do you have a distinctive North American advantage?
  • Do you offer a product feature that gives you an advantage in performance?
  • Can you implement rapid changes in your product and/or process to address changing use requirements?

    Companies with a technology / product / process differentiator have a higher rate of return than their competitors. Technologies which give you shorter time to market, unique products, faster production rates and/or cycle times, increased yield, lower scrap – all of these lead to an improved market position. However, the organization and management of that product and/or process development process is critical, because it does not happen on its own. You need to:

  • Define what new / upgraded products are needed to keep your leadership position in your market, or become a leader.
  • Evaluate whether you have the in-house capability to develop these new products.
  • Decide whether in-house capability is adequate or you need to license / purchase it.
  • Manage it effectively.
