Presentation Title-
New Product Development and the Role of System Reliability
Presentation Synopsis-
New Product Development can be approached with different Stage-Gate development process rigidity levels depending on the business model and amount of time available. As the checkpoints become more stringent, the product must perform better and better to eventually release for commercialization. However, how good is good enough? System reliability methodologies help to answer this question by introducing system and sub-system goals to achieve the desired product reliability and warranty as per the business requirements. A properly developed product will allow for predictable field performance upon product release fulfilling not only the customer needs but also the business needs in the process.
