  • Mediating Customer Relationship Management on the Effect of Incremental Innovation on Product Life Cycle
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 8, ISSUE 09, SEPTEMBER 2019 ISSN 2277-8616 Mediating Customer Relationship Management On The Effect Of Incremental Innovation On Product Life Cycle Erna Setijani, Sumartono, Pudjo Sugito Abstract: This study aims to analyze the mediating customer relationship management on the effect of incremental innovation on product life cycle. The population of this study are batik entrepreneurs in Madura island, Indonesia. The sampling technique uses a proportional random sampling at three locations, namely: Bangkalan, Sampang, Pamekasan and Sumenep Regency. The number of respondents is 200 batik entrepreneurs. This research was carried out by designing questionnaire and testing the validity dan reliability of research instrument. Furthermore, the questionnaire was broadcasted to the batik entrepreneurs who were randomly selected. The primary data was analyzed using structural equation model with the Partial Least Square (PLS) data processing program. The result of this study demonstrates that incremental innovation affects customer relationship management, incremental innovation affects product life cycle, customer relationship management affects product lifecycle and incremental innovation affect indirectly product life cycle through customer relationship management. It means that both incremental innovation and customer management relationship can extend product life cycle of Madures Batik.

Gardner, Professer Department of Business Administration The Product Life Cycle: It's Role In Marketing Strategy- Some Evolving Observations About The Product Life Cycle The Product Life Cycle is an attractive concept, but one which the common consensus is that it has some descriptive value, but rather limited or non-existent prescriptive value. This paper is based on the premise the Product Life Concept has the potential to become a central, if not, the central concept in marketing theory and practice. Prior to making suggestions on steps toward this ambitious goal, the concept is reviewed along with its major limitations. Based on a review of research evidence published since 1975, it is suggested that three areas need to be explored and expanded. The first is a careful reexamination of the foundation of the concept, then there needs to be a focus on the product life cycle as a dependent variable, and third, there is a need from application of meta-theory criteria to guide future research.

  • Future Directions for Product Lifecycle Management (Plm) and Model-Based Systems Engineering (Mbse)
    FUTURE DIRECTIONS FOR PRODUCT LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT (PLM) AND MODEL-BASED SYSTEMS ENGINEERING (MBSE) Sanford Friedenthal, SAF Consulting Sponsored by Aras Future Directions for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) Future Directions for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) SANFORD FRIEDENTHAL, SAF CONSULTING 1. INTRODUCTION Industries such as automotive, aerospace, biomedical, and telecommunications, continue to face increasing system and product development challenges that require a strategic response. Organizations must innovate to advance technology at an accelerating rate in areas such as computing, networking, sensors, and materials, and insert these technologies into their product development. They must manage growing system complexity that results from increased system and software functionality and inter-connectedness. The need for new technologies and increases in system complexity are often in response to customer demands for smarter and more autonomous systems that require less human interaction and are more fault tolerant and secure. Organizations must provide this capability within the constraints of shortened development cycles and reduced costs, while relying on extended supply chains, all to meet increasing global competition. An organization’s capability to develop and evolve systems must address these challenges to stay competitive. The development process is complex in its own right and involves interaction and collaboration among many different engineering disciplines and other stakeholders across the lifecycle. The development process must also facilitate innovation, while at the same time, leverage previous design experience and knowledge that builds on existing products. Today’s multi-disciplinary engineering practices are often stove-piped and disconnected creating many inefficiencies, rework, and limit the opportunity for reuse.

This excerpt may be used solely for one-time professional development use and may not be reproduced In quantity or distributed or used for any other purpose without permission from [email protected] Chapter5 Managing SupplyChain Risk 121 5.5 The Strategic ProcurementLifecycle The strategic procurement lifecycle is, in essence, the amalgamation of two concepts, namely the product lifecycle and strategic procurement. This section provides an overview of the subject, and how companies should consider it as an important aspect relating to procurement and acquisition strategies. 5.5.1 ProductLifecycle Most people today are well aware of the product lifecycle, and how it is consistent with the biological lifecycle. This cycle can be illustrated via the classic “bathtub curve,” which shows that low, introductory sales are to a few innovating customers, while high, mature sales capture the market at large. Sitting alongside the product lifecycle, we can also envisage a comparative industrial lifecycle, showing how fledgling, high-growth, mature, and declining industries exist within and across economies. 5.5.2 The Strategic ProcurementLifecycle If we consider the key aspects relating to demand and supply, then we can see how buyers may adjust their positioning regarding sourcing and supply, depending on the lifecycle of the product or industry. Figure 5-3 below shows a working model of the strategic procurement lifecycle, relating to the relative maturity of the industry from which the product is being purchased.

  • Impact of Customer Relationship Management on Product Innovation Process
    Impact of Customer Relationship Management on Product Innovation Process Supervisor Dr. Ossi Pesämaa Authors Yelin Li and Nguyen Thi Thu Sang Dec 2011 Abstracts In marketing, the common view is that customer relationships enhance innovativeness. Regularly it involves doing something new or different in response to market conditions. However, previous studies have not addressed how customer relationship management (CRM) plays its role in product innovation process. This thesis proposes and tests how key CRM activities influence and relate to each stage in product innovation process. The objective of this study is to test how customer relations management activities influence four basic stages of product innovation process. Five practices of CRM is found in the literature (i.e., information sharing, customer involvement, long-term partnership, joint problem-solving and technology-based CRM). Furthermore, our literature review suggests four stages of innovation process (i.e., innovation initiation, input, thoroughput and output). The one-to-one relationship between CRM activities and innovation stages are established in four models. These associations are tested and some are verified in a survey-based study. Specifically data from 83 respondents were collected. All respondents represent a strategic business unit and work closely with R&D, product development or marketing. Regression analysis is conducted to examine the impacts of CRM on innovation process. The statistical results indicate that not all CRM activities make contributions to each stage within innovation process. It is found that 1) information sharing effectively enhances both innovation throughput and innovation output. 2) Customer involvement and joint problem-solving exert positive influence on innovation throughput stage, while long-term partnership has significant effects on innovation output.
