New product development involves several critical decisions. A key decision making area in new product development is the evaluation of the viability and the market potentials of a new product. In the absence of any relevant historical data, companies ask the potential buyers of their products about their intentions to buy those products when assessing their viability. Despite the popularity of the use of behavioral intentions in predicting the market acceptance of new product ideas, both survey and empirical studies suggest that the accuracy of such predictions is usually very low. Although earlier case-based studies suggest that a number of factors can affect the quality of new product decisions, it is still empirically unclear how product knowledge and the type of new products might impact the predictive accuracy of intentions-based new product forecasting. This study utilized a longitudinal research design and empirically tested the hypotheses across two new products. The study first collected purchase intentions data about the new products. Second, it collected subsequent actual purchase data about the new products. The results of series of hierarchical regression analyses comparing the initial purchase intentions and subsequent actual behaviors showed that while product knowledge is positively related to the predictive accuracy and consistency of intentions-based new product forecasting, product type is negatively related to them.  相似文献

The capability to bring products to market which comply with quality, cost and development time goals is vital to the survival of firms in a competitve environment. New product development comprises knowledge creation and search and can be organized in different ways. In this paper, we study the performance of several alternative organizational models for new product development using a model of distributed, self-adapting (learning) agents. The agents (a marketing and a production agent) are modelled via neural networks. The artificial new product development process analyzed starts with learning on the basis of an initial set of production and marketing data about possible products and their evaluation. Subsequently, in each step of the process, the agents search for a better product with their current models of the environment and, then, refine their representations based on additional prototypes generated (new learning data). Within this framework, we investigate the influence of different types of new product search methods and generating prototypes/learning according to the performance of individual agents and the organization as a whole. In particular, sequential, team-based Trial & Error and House of Quality guided search are combined with prototype sampling methods of different intensity and breadth; also, the complexity of the agents (number of hidden units) is varied. It turns out that both the knowledge base and the search procedure have a significant impact on the agents' generalization ability and success in new product development.

This study considers supply chain network configuration in an innovative environment while the new product development (NPD) will affect the supply chain configuration (SCC). The time of new product introduction has a significant effect on the market performance while it has an effect on the supply chain configuration. Supplier integration into the new product introduction is the key parameter for successfully new product introduction, which may contribute to supply chain reconfiguration. Consequently By considering the new product development concept, we may face with dynamic supply chain configuration during a planning horizontal time. In this study, a new model is presented to consider the dynamic configuration of a supply chain by developing new products. In the proposed model, the dynamic configuration of a supply chain and the new product launching time is optimized simultaneously. The proposed model considers production, sales and transportation planning for the entire supply chain in order to achieve an integrative and efficient supply as well. Then some numerical analyses have been done to show the applicability of the proposed model. The results show that the new product development has a significant effect on the configuration of supply chain.  相似文献

This paper addresses the issue of investing in reduced setup times and defect rates for a manufacturer of several products operating in a JIT environment. Production cycle times can be shortened by investing in setup time and defect rate reductions, respectively. The objective is to determine optimal levels of setup time and defect rate reductions along with the corresponding optimal levels of investments respectively, and the optimal production cycle time for each product. The problem is constrained by demand requirements, process improvement budget limitations, and manufacturing and warehousing capacity constraints. We consider the cases of product-specific quality improvements and joint-product quality improvements. A general nonlinear optimization models of these problems are formulated. A convex geometric programming approximation of these models is developed respectively, in order to solve them. The approximation can be made to any desired degree of accuracy. Our empirical findings provide insights into a number of managerial issues surrounding investment decisions in product-specific quality improvements and setup reductions due to a product redesign as well as in joint-product improvements due to a process redesign.  相似文献

Recent empirical studies indicate that improvements in product conformance quality exhibit learning-by-doing patterns. We address quality improvement in a competitive duopoly market for partially substitutable products characterized by levels of quality that are not necessarily identical. The products’ quality is described with a hazard rate that can be improved both by accumulating production experience (autonomous learning) and quality improvement efforts (induced learning). Given that defective items are fully reimbursable and the demands exhibit increasing returns to scale, we derive Nash equilibrium pricing and induced learning effort dynamic policies. We show that when the effectiveness of autonomous learning prevails over the effectiveness of efforts in induced learning, equilibrium prices gradually grow over time; the trend is quite the opposite when autonomous learning is less effective than induced learning.  相似文献

New product development is indeed very important for companies. However, developing new products is a risky and uncertain process. In order to reduce the risks and uncertainties, companies need to evaluate their new product initiatives carefully and make accurate decisions. Although the outcome of a new product evaluation decision can be influenced by the environmental uncertainties that are beyond a company’s control, companies can successfully improve the accuracy of their new product evaluation decisions. This article presents an integrated framework for understanding how various factors affect decision making in new product evaluation and provides guidelines for reducing their negative impacts on new product decisions. The results indicate that the quality of new product evaluation decisions is affected by four major sets of factors, namely the nature of the task, the type of individuals who are involved in the decisions, the way the individuals’ opinions are elicited and the way the opinions are aggregated.  相似文献

中国出口产品往往面临量高而质低的困境,这直接导致了我国产品在国际市场上往往只能定位在较低的价格。本文使用2000-2006年中国工业企业数据库和海关数据库匹配所得的微观数据,从产品层面出发测算企业出口产品质量,结合行业层面间接融资渠道测度的金融发展指标,运用非参数分位数面板研究发现:(1)金融发展对出口产品质量存在非线性异质影响且影响模式显著不同,在高分位处呈现“倒N型”特征;(2)在不同分位点处存在差异化的最优金融发展水平,并随分位点下降而降低;(3)非东部地区、高技术产品的质量对金融发展的敏感程度更高,而对低分位产品质量促进作用更大。本文结论表明,区域金融发展宏观调控应考虑到企业自身产品质量水平影响。  相似文献

An insurance company, like many in the financial services industry, will advertise a product in the press and some readers will avail themselves of it. Often the cost of an advertisement will exceed the income derived from the accepted respondents in the following years. It only becomes profitable if acquiring names into a database results in purchases in future years of the advertised and other, cross-sold products. Therefore evaluating advertising effectiveness requires the development of future lifetime values (LTVs), which vary over time between individuals for the different products. Real examples include evaluating the media vehicle, size, content and frequency of advertisements.  相似文献

产品价格和质量是消费者永恒的关注点。虽然多渠道给消费者带来了便捷的购物途径, 但是不同渠道的产品存在质量和价格分差异, 消费者在购买时须面对一个渠道、价格和质量的协调选择问题。本文提出了消费者对产品质量和价格偏好的双渠道定价决策模型, 并讨论了以制造商为领导者的分散决策和集中决策情形下的最优策略。比较了消费者偏好及产品质量水平对不同决策情形下的供应链决策的影响, 并通过设计收益共享契约机制实现了渠道的协调并证明了其有效性。研究表明:当产品质量在一定范围内时, 制造商和零售商可以获得最大利润;当消费者对质量的偏好逐渐增加时, 制造商的利润和零售商的利润随着消费者对质量的偏好提高而下降;制造商和零售商可以通过协调销售价格消除供应链的双重边际效应,从而实现供应链的协调。最后利用算例分析了消费者的质量、价格偏好对总利润的影响并给出了相应的管理启示。  相似文献

Some firms (e.g. Intel and Medtronics) use a time-pacing strategy for product development (PD), introducing new generations at regular intervals. If the firm adopts a fast pace (introducing frequently), it prematurely cannibalizes its old generation, incurring high development costs, while if it has a slow pace, it fails to capitalize on customer willingness-to-pay for improved technology. We develop a model to gain insight into which factors drive the pace. We consider PD cost, the diffusion rate (coefficients of innovation and imitation), the rate of margin decline, and the degree to which a new generation stimulates market growth. We find that a faster pace is generally associated with faster diffusion, a higher market growth rate and faster margin decay. Not so intuitively, we find that relatively minor differences in the development cost function can significantly impact the pace.  相似文献

If each minimal dominating set in a graph is a minimum dominating set, then the graph is called well-dominated. Since the seminal paper on well-dominated graphs appeared in 1988, the structure of well-dominated graphs from several restricted classes has been studied. In this paper we give a complete characterization of nontrivial direct products that are well-dominated. We prove that if a strong product is well-dominated, then both of its factors are well-dominated. When one of the factors of a strong product is a complete graph, the other factor being well-dominated is also a sufficient condition for the product to be well-dominated. Our main result gives a complete characterization of well-dominated Cartesian products in which at least one of the factors is a complete graph. In addition, we conjecture that this result is actually a complete characterization of the class of nontrivial, well-dominated Cartesian products.  相似文献

This paper models supply chain (SC) uncertainties by fuzzy sets and develops a possibilistic SC configuration model for new products with unreliable or unavailable SC statistical data. The supply chain is modeled as a network of stages. Each stage may have one or more options characterized by the cost and lead-time required to fulfill required functions and may hold safety stock to prevent an inventory shortage. The objective is to determine the option and inventory policy for each stage to minimize the total SC cost and maximize the possibility of fulfilling the target service level. A fuzzy SC model is developed to evaluate the performance of the entire SC and a genetic algorithm approach is applied to determine near-optimal solutions. The results obtained show that the proposed approach allows decision makers to perform trade-off analysis among customer service levels, product cost, and inventory investment depending on their risk attitude. It also provides an alternative tool to evaluate and improve SC configuration decisions in an uncertain SC environment.  相似文献

Forest management planning decisions are often based on the forest owner’s goals, which typically focus on economic criteria. Logging operation work productivity functions are used when costing forest operations. These functions affect the conclusions drawn during forest management analyses because different logging environments give rise to different harvesting costs. When evaluating new combinations of machines and environments, there is generally a shortage of field data on productivity that can be examined in advance. We applied a previously published deductive framework describing time consumption in forwarding to known environments, in which field studies on forwarding have been conducted and for which extensive data are available. We then adapted the deductive framework to better reproduce the results obtained in the time studies. The deductive framework accurately reproduced the observed forwarding productivities; on average, the adaptation process improved the accuracy of this reproduction. However, it may also have reduced the accuracy of individual predictions. We conclude that the deductive framework can be used as a basis for constructing work productivity functions for forest management analyses, and can serve as a foundation when constructing new productivity functions based on time study results to use when pricing forwarding.  相似文献

On the theoretical side, this paper characterizes qualitatively optimal advertising policy for new subscriber services. A monopolistic market is analyzed first for which customers’ disadoption, discounting of future profits streams and a service cost learning curve are allowed. After characterizing the optimal policy for a general diffusion model, the results pertaining to a specific diffusion model for which advertising affects the coefficient of innovation that incorporates the disadoption rate are reported. The results of the theoretical research show that the advertising policy of the service firm in the presence of customers’ disadoption could be very different from the same when disadoption is ignored.On the empirical side, four alternative diffusion models are estimated and their predictive powers using a one-step-ahead forecasting procedure compared. The diffusion data analyzed are related to the Canadian cable TV industry. Empirical research findings suggest that the specific diffusion model considered above is not only of theoretical appeal but also of major empirical relevance.The analytical findings of the study are documented in six theoretical propositions for which proofs are provided in a separate Appendix. The results of a related numerical experiment together with the analytical findings pertaining to the competitive role of advertising are included. Managerial implications of the study together with directions for future research are also discussed.  相似文献
