ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Time and Innovation • Innovation is key to the long-term vitality of all enterprises • Innovation means more than just new products; it also means new services and ways of doing business • While the challenge to innovation is originating new ideas, time is at the core of an innovation’s success • Timely execution is very demanding • Examples of fast, time-based innovators (Honda, Ford, GM, Sun Microsystems, Cisco, Toys “R” Us, UPS)
ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Time and Innovation (cont’d.) • Roughly right vs. “final product” • The “hollowing of America” - transfer of manufacturing - long new product development and introduction cycles • The price for being a slow innovator • The rewards for being a fast innovator • Becoming a fast innovator Source: George Stalk & Thomas Hout, “Competing Against Time.” The Free Press. ISBN 0029152917
ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Becoming a Fast Innovator • Time is the key performance variable to be managed to attain improved cost and quality. • Time benchmarks are set by the performance of competitors and, if faster, by what is technologically possible. • The support functions necessary to advance the development process are actively managed to be “invisible.” Their need is to be anticipated; they are to be invested in and kept up-to-date. They are never to be allowed to slow the development process.
ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Becoming a Fast Innovator (cont’d.) • Each program is to be managed and executed by a small, dedicated, decision-empowered, and experienced team. Team members have common goals and are measured and evaluated as part of a team. • The development programs are to have four steps, and company will organize itself around these steps: • Planning and preparation • Product definition • Design development • Manufacturing ramp-up • Product Improvement
ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Becoming a Fast Innovator (cont’d.) • The objective of planning and preparation is to avoid having to invent in the middle of the development process—make unknowns be knowns. • After definition, the product specification is frozen. The definition is committed to and not allowed to be changed. The improvement phase is to be used for costs and feature enhancements.
ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Becoming a Fast Innovator (cont’d.) • Functional expertise resides in the development program. Manufacturing and design resources are full-time participants in the definition team. Manufacturing resources are full-time participants in the design team. • Team members are collocated.
ETM 5391 – New Product Development and Commercialization Becoming a Fast Innovator (cont’d.) • Senior management reviews are few. The role of senior management is to ensure that the program teams have the appropriate resources, incentives and environment to execute their tasks quickly. • New programs are generated continuously, at regular market-driven intervals, and incorporate more incremental advances and fewer “great leaps forward.”
