Lean Product Development (LPD) focuses on the elimination of waste in all facets of the product development process. It provides a very practical tool-kit for better, faster, cheaper execution of product development projects.
The phenomenal rate of change and pace of innovation dictates that companies must continuously deliver value to customers or risk falling behind the competition. Are you facing challenges with your new-product objectives? If so, now is the time to power-up your innovation process.
