Case Studies in Strategic Marketing Planning for Radically New Products Lee Cooper Anderson School at UCLA Intel Corporation Colloquium July 13, 1999
Six Planning Stages • The first step involves articulating the goal as simply and comprehensively as possible. • The top-level objectives that flow from that goal should also be developed at this stage. New Product Success Value
2. Fill out the Critical Issues Grid • Develop a general description of the product or service. • List the key issues and assumptions coming from political, behavioral, economic, sociological, or technological sources. This becomes an outline for short written statements about the critical issues. • Share this document within the planning group (find out if there is agreement on the critical issues).

3. Mapping the Critical Issues into a Bayesian Network • What affects what is the central issue at this stage. • Since the network can be progressively refined, the preliminary work is just in seeing what issues are interconnected. • Finding the nodes that are the key to decision making is an important part of this step.

4. Knowledge engineering / specification of research projects. • The rough network at this stage contains nodes and arcs. Each connection between two nodes represents something that is either known by the planning group or researchable. • This step fills in the known conditional relations and sets up the research projects to fill in the rest.

Final Stages • Run scenarios. • Test the sensitivity of the key nodes to changes in the underlying assumptions. • Revise and refine the network, as new knowledge becomes available. • The ability to dynamically update the network is a key asset.

What you gain • Explicit, rather than implicit assumptions • A visual overview of how assumptions and empirical evidence interconnect • A roadmap showing what research will reduce uncertainties • A quantitative method for integrating subjective estimates and objective findings. • A Bayesian tool for showing how changes in assumptions impact important planning events.
