Common Challenges in New Product Introduction
Alignment of Demand & Market
Insufficient market demand research, vague product positioning (e.g., misalignment between functions and user pain points). Frequent demand changes leading to R&D rework and extended timelines
Quality & Compliance Risks
Unclear quality standards, lack of testing processes. Non-compliance with industry regulations/certifications (e.g., CE, FDA, environmental standards). Inadequate after-sales fault response mechanism, damaging brand reputation.
Project Management & Collaboration
Substandard supplier qualifications, delayed delivery/unstable quality of core components. Immature production processes, leading to low yield and cost overruns. Inadequate capacity planning, failure to meet initial market demand.
Supply Chain & Production Support
Interdepartmental communication barriers like R&D, production, marketing, purchasing, delayed information synchronization. Loose control of timelines, milestone delays. Unreasonable resource allocation such as insufficient manpower, equipment, budget.
R&D & Technology Implementation
Inadequate technical feasibility assessment, failure to pre-resolve key technical bottlenecks. Insufficient prototype validation, resulting in performance/quality issues during mass production. Poor design-manufacturing compatibility (DFM/DFA design flaws).
Seamless Solutions for Every Product
Development Milestone
Concept
- Comprehensive Market Research
Conduct comprehensive market research to clarify customer needs, market trends, and competitor dynamics for product positioning. - Project Plan
Then, formulate a project plan including key milestones, timelines, and budgets. - Risk Assessment
Proactively identifying potential risks that may arise during the manufacturing process and propose corresponding mitigation measures.
Design
- Manufacturing Feasibility Review
Complete the product’s appearance, structure, and functional design based on market demands, and tackle key technical challenges in the design process. - Design Evaluation
After the design is finalized, organize professional reviews to focus on evaluating the design’s feasibility, reliability, and manufacturability, and rectify identified issues in a timely manner.
Prototype
- A Small Number of Engineering Prototypes
Produce a small number of engineering prototypes via 3D printing, CNC machining, or other methods per design specifications. - Basic Functional and Performance Tests
Conduct basic functional and performance tests on prototypes, collect test data and potential issues, and initially validate design rationality to provide empirical support for design iterations.
EVT
- Functional, Reliability, Process Compatibility
The first round of systematic validation for prototypes, focusing on verifying compliance with all design specifications. Tests cover functional completeness, basic reliability, and initial process compatibility - Basic Functional and Performance Tests
Also check compliance with fundamental industry standards. Drive design adjustments based on identified issues.
DVT
Build on EVT optimizations to conduct more comprehensive and rigorous tests. In addition to enhanced functional and performance testing, include environmental adaptability tests (e.g., high-low temperature, vibration) and compliance tests (safety, compatibility) to ensure the design can stably produce quality products.
PVT
- Small-Batch Pilot Production
Carry out small-batch pilot production simulating formal mass production conditions, focusing on validating the adaptability of production line setups, processes, and tooling. - Standardized Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Monitor production yield and material compatibility closely, identify production bottlenecks, and develop standardized operating procedures (SOPs) to remove barriers to mass production.
MP Prep
- Production Processes Optimization
Optimize production processes based on PVT results to improve efficiency and control costs. - Stable Supply Chain System
Finalize core raw material suppliers and establish a stable supply chain system. - Special Training
Complete production equipment commissioning and special training for operators to ensure all links meet mass production standards, laying full groundwork for formal large-scale production.
