For large, complex projects with many disciplines involved and the need to create customer demand for the developed product or service, our business developers can take on the role of project managers. In these projects, broad understanding is often the key to effective coordination and ensuring rapid product-market fit.

Sometimes it can be difficult to find new growth areas for a company. Development may have become mostly incremental, growth may have stagnated and there may be a pronounced need to find new growth areas. In these cases, we can step in and help with systematic mapping of opportunities. We help customers find valuable needs and concepts built on the expertise and execution capabilities that exist in the organization.

We can follow a project through all phases; from identifying new ideas, to product development, industrialization, production and commercialization. The systematics used for a development project can be continued and used to establish innovation programs that create many new areas. We call this methodology a growth engine and we also help customers establish this type of growth accelerators.

We have experience with production improvement and work with partners to improve efficiency, quality, capacity and reduce costs. We often see major improvements when working on both the product design for production and the production process. An example of how we work with systematic rapid cost reduction through product design is through teardown programs. Products are systematically broken down to component level and compared with competing solutions for ideas on design, materials and assembly. Focus is guided by cost calculations.
