Product development management

The industry wants to help the nation to get security systems where they are needed, at the right times and the right levels, but to do so industry must have more information about specific needs. The chemical industry brings expertise in product development, management, and integration. It wants to be useful. It wants to help mitigate risk. However, it has been very difficult for companies to get a clear idea of what the needs really are. Confusion about what is necessary does not inspire executives to spend employee time, money, and energy to solve a problem that has not been completely identified.

Product variety can also be achieved by designing a family of products with different functions through combinations of modules (Fisher et al. 1999). With a modular architecmre, the standard physical components provided by suppliers can be used in different products. Component standardization can reduce the efforts required in product development management.
