New Product Development
Given changes in consumer tastes, technology and competition, organisations must develop new products if they are to
remain competitive.
5
The Need for New Offers
• The Value Offer Cycle Model (or more commonly known as the Product Life Cycle) shows that all
products have a finite life in their market.
• New offer development is risky. Many new products don’t succeed.
• This presentation looks at the management of new value offer development.
6
What Is A ‘New’ Offer?
•There are typically four ways to classify a new offer:
•New to the world;•New to a specific market; •New to the organisation •A new application of an existing offer.

What Drives New Offer Development?
• There are basically three distinct but interacting factors that drive an organisation
to develop new offerings:
• The culture of the organisation .• Stakeholder pressure. • Market pressure.
9
Sources Of Ideas For New Offerings
• Externally• customers’ needs
• competitors• technology advances
• Internally• employees
• market research• consultants.
10
The Offer Life Cycle
• The Offer Value Life Cycle Curve is shown in Figure 2.
• Its stages are outlined below.• Stage one: Development
• Stage two: Launch and introduction• Stage three: Growth• Stage four: Maturity
The Offer Life Cycle
• Stage five: Saturation• Stage six: Decline ‐ introduction of alternative
value offers• Stage seven: Elimination
Figure 2 Offer Life Cycle/Adoption Curve
13
Why New Product Offers Fail
• Some of the reasons new products fail are:
• overestimated demand• lack of real organisation support
• poor design/technology• lack of effective research• poor marketing execution
• lack of distribution• high development costs
• strong competitive reaction
14
Some of the reasons new products fail are:
•fragmented markets•social and governmental constraints•cost•capital shortage•need for speed•shorter product life cycles.
15
Managing the Development Process
• Because so many new product offerings fail, organisations are anxious to learn how to improve their odds of new product success. • There are many elements involved in developing successful new products.
• However, to create them, an organisation must understand its consumers, markets and
competitors, and develop products that deliver superior value to customers.
16
Predictors of New Offering Success• For an offer to succeed it must:
• meet the needs of the market better than competitive offerings (perceptually)
• be technically superior• offer better perceived value
• be interesting ‐ provide a perception of change/newness
• provide strategic synergy ‐ fit well with the organisation’s directions (vision, goals and objectives)
• provide cultural synergy ‐ fit well with the organisation’s current culture
17
For an offer to succeed it must:
• have a better‐managed development process• have a better marketing synergy ‐ fit into the existing marketing experience and skills of the
organisation• have good technical synergy ‐ fit into the existing
technological experience and skills of the organisation
• be introduced to the market at the right time• have better new product launch management• survive better competitive responsiveness.
18
New Concept Development Model• This model consists of three parts:
• 1. Identifying the uncontrollable influencing factors• 2. Identifying the controllable activities
• 3. Proceeding through five activity elements:• opportunity identification
• opportunity analysis• idea generation and enrichment
• idea selection• concept definition.
19
New Product Development or New Market?
•Igor Ansoff developed a Product–Market matrix to show the options available in deciding on either a new product, a new market or some combination of both.

Market Evolution
• Market evolution is a process that parallels the Offer Life Cycle. As a product category matures, the industry goes through stages that mirror the
stages of a Offer Life Cycle:
• Market crystallisation.• Market expansion
• Market fragmentation • Market consolidation • Market termination .
22
The Technology Life Cycle
• Another approach to the process of product development is the technology life cycle (TLC), which can be broken down into five stages.
• Bleeding‐edge• Leading‐edge • State‐of‐the‐art
• Dated• Obsolete

Models Of Innovation/Product Diffusion
• There are several theories that try to explain the mechanics of new product offer diffusion
into the marketplace:
• 1. The Two‐step Hypothesis
• 2. The Trickle‐down Theory
25
Diffusion of Innovations Theory
• 3. The Everett Roger’s Diffusion of Innovations Theory ‐ there are five categories of product adopters:
• Innovators• Early adopters.• Early majority .• Late majority .
• Laggards
• 4. Technology‐driven models
26
Rate of Product Diffusion• The rate of diffusion is influenced by:
• the product’s perceived advantage or benefit to the buyer
• perceived riskiness of purchase• ease or complexity of product use; simplicity or
complexity of the product• immediacy of benefits to the buyer; how quickly
benefits will be obtained• observability of the value offered by the product
• trialability of the value offer
27
Rate of Product Diffusion
• perceived value (buyer investment compared with perceived value)
• extent of changes required to purchase and use (including behavioural changes)
• return on investment in the case of organisational (B2B) products.
28
The Product Development Process
• Developing strong new products relies on planning and on setting up a systematic product development process for finding and growing
new products.
• 1. Organisation goals and objectives• 2. Situation (need or opportunity)
• 3. Idea generation• 4. Idea screening
• 5. Concept development and testing
29
The Product Development Process
• 6. Strategy development: (see also Chapter 5, ‘Planning: Strategy’).
• 7. Business analysis: • 8. Product development:
• 9. Test marketing: • 10. Commercialisation:

Things That Drive Successful and Innovative Organisations

by all.• The organisational culture fosters employee
empowerment and involvement.• Excellence is viewed not as a destination, but
rather as a continuous journey.• The organisation is solution‐focused.
• There is a high level of employee engagement.
32

and effective leadership.• There is ongoing learning from the ‘Best Practices’ of top‐performing companies but you discover your own
best practices and build on them.• Dynamic leadership is displayed and continuously
reinforced.
33
Things That Drive Successful and Innovative Organisations

group.• All individuals are committed to exhibiting behaviours that help to retain customers and

35
Commercial Development of New Products
• New products need to appeal to both consumer and channel customers. In a new product the supplier needs to consider the following:
• clear objectives• a simple, effective message
• a big idea• ability to achieve the objectives and benefits of
consumer and channel customer.• a compelling idea
36
What Does The Customer Want?
• Choice• Convenience• Customisation
• Health and wellbeing• Value for investment
• Indulgence
37
What Does The Distributor Want?
• Differentiation• Increased traffic• Increased sales
• Category objectives• Thought/category leadership
• Rewards for store team• Promotional assistance
38
In assessing the product, the supplier needs to consider:
• Maintaining brand identity ‐ ensure the new product is in line with existing brand(s) focus:• Will the new product maintain consistencyacross all existing brand touch‐points? Will the new product leverage and/or reinforce the
brand?• Cannibalisation ‐ How will the new product
affect the existing product line ?• Category growth ‐Will the new product create
additional growth in its category ?
39
Things That Drive Successful and Innovative Organisations
• Store space availability ‐ there is only so much shelf or floor space available in retail stores. Will something need to be removed?• Wear‐out factor ‐ At what point will a campaign lose its
effectiveness due to overplay ?• Production/supply timelines ‐ How quickly can we come to market? Can we meet demand, or more demand than expected?• Training ‐What is required to train salespeople and retail
salespeople ?• Relationship building: segment needs/channel needs ‐Will this product aid in building better relationships with distributors and
end users ?
