Manufacturers are constantly looking for new opportunities for growth and higher margins. Often these objectives are best accomplished by entering new markets, innovating faster and launching more products and services. However, these activities are complex, risky and expensive. To make matters more challenging, manufacturers also face rapidly evolving customer demands, changing regulation and compliance requirements and rapid technology innovation, all of which shorten the product lifecycle.
Designing and delivering products that delight customers and yield maximum growth and profitability requires a different approach.
