R&D / Product Development
                            
                            New products form the lifeblood of most companies. With ever-increasing competition from many sources, competitive advantage is 
                                often short-lived, so the ability to develop new products which customers really want and are willing to pay for is essential to the future prosperity of any business. 
                            
                                - Are your products or services designed to satisfy your customers’ needs?
 
                                - Are your products designed to keep manufacturing costs down?
 
                                - Is quality designed into your products from the outset?
 
                                - Is your organisation good at developing new products?
 
                                - Do you have a clear, robust and effective process for developing and launching new products?
 
                                - Do you know when to abandon a product development?
