The traditional, functionally organised product introduction process is incapable of meeting the new pressures placed upon it. Its problems are summarised below ... 

In essence the product introduction process requires the collaborative use of ... 

The need to provide the concept design and development stages of the product introduction process with carefully structured knowledge about process characteristics and capabilities, together with cost estimating methods has been highlighted. PRIMAs of a standard form and... 

Define a product introduction process and explain how it should be engineered to support the creation of products that are economic to manufacture. 

Why have businesses implemented formal product introduction process models and how do these differ from the well-established design process models ... 

The work is presented in three main parts. Part I addresses the background to the problem and puts process selection and costing into the context of modern product introduction processes and the application of techniques in design for manufacture. Part II presents the manufacturing process information maps (PRIMAs) and their selection. Part III is concerned with methods and data for costing design solutions. 

Implementing an inherent safety review process is one mechanism companies can use to institutionalize inherent safety. The review process should integrate well with company systems for process safety management, new product development, and project execution. Safety, health, and environmental considerations in the new product or process development effort can be strengthened via the introduction of the inherent safety review. Companies may also build inherently safer design concepts into their existing process safety management system and process hazard reviews. 

In-house process control. This comprises the achievement of optimum efficiency in relation to production and processing methods including the introduction, where feasible, of cleaner processes (alternative technology) or processing methods (substitute materials and/or reformulations, process modifications, and equipment redesign). 

In the case of parallel production in processing operations, the precautionary measure may be an adequate cleansing process that has been demonstrated to be effective. In the case of the importers, a measure to be taken may be the introduction of an internal plan to take samples to be tested for possible traces of pesticides. 

The latest development are micromechanical sensors. Their development began with the large-scale introduction of silicon micromachined pressure sensors to the automotive industry in the nineties, which entailed a massive price reduction. Then acceleration sensors for airbag firing, yaw rate sensors and more were introduced. Many devices are still being discovered. The next step is product evolution, with introduction times between a few years and over a decade, as shown in Tab. 2.2. Once customers in the industry have accepted a product, investment in large-scale production can go ahead. It helps to find more applications for the product The time scale for the product evolution process varies from about five... 

This chapter provides an introduction to the pharmaceutical sector, and the business of developing new active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). Crystallization is the preferred method of isolating commercial API products because it offers a highly efficient means of purification. The crystallization process is also where the physical properties of the drug substance are defined. These properties can have a significant impact on the formulated product and process, and eventually on the drug release profile in the patient.

EoUowing are some examples of products or processes that created unforeseen environmental problems after their introduction. 

The above are only a few examples of the numerous major environmental problems that were created by the introduction of new products and processes. They should serve as reminders, as societies develop new products and processes to satisfy their... 

The certification activities include a series of process documentation and qualification studies that start with the initial installation of a sterilization system and continue as process engineering changes or new or revised product introductions are required. Qualification activities comprise installation, operational, change, and performance phases. 

The PAT guidance facilitates introduction of new measurement and control tools in conjunction with well-established statistical methods such as design of experiments and statistical process control. It, therefore, can provide more effective means for product and process design and control, alternate efficient approaches for quality assurance, and a means for moving away from the corrective action to a continuous improvement paradigm. 

Usually large production batch scale-up is undertaken only after product introduction. Again, the actual size of the pilot-production (100 x ) batch may vary due to equipment and raw material availability. The need for additional pilot-production batches ultimately depends on the successful completion of a first pilot batch and its process validation program. Usually three successfully completed pilot-production batches are required for validation purposes.
