Product Development Excellence

Inefficient processes, complex organizational structures, non-market-oriented product portfolios, and lacking competencies reduce profitability and hinder long-term business success. This often manifests in high development and lifecycle costs, constant escalations and task force activities, and delayed product launches.

With EFESO’s Product Development Excellence team, companies turn product development into a driver of profitability and competitiveness. We focus on the following areas:

  • Ensuring alignment between portfolio goals and capabilities with the company’s strategic objectives across the product lifecycle – from idea to end-of-life.
  • Ensuring the attractiveness and effectiveness of the product offering and the feasibility of the business model.
  • Designing operating models to accelerate processes and decision-making.
  • Reducing time-to-market by decreasing development and product complexity and aligning processes and structures with customer needs.
  • Enhancing innovation capabilities with minimal capital and resource input, identifying relevant trends, market developments, and strategic partnerships.
  • Value stream-optimized implementation of the Product portfolio strategy and portfolio management to ensure a lean, agile, and adaptable business model.
  • Increasing maturity through the empowerment of key disciplines such as software, platforms and modularization, AI, or sustainability.
  • Effective and lean integration of digital systems throughout the entire product development cycle.

We systematically analyze optimization potential across the areas of strategy, people and leadership, processes, structures, methods, performance, and mindset. In doing so, we rely on globally established standards to improve efficiency, effectiveness, and quality in product development, shorten time-to-market for enhancements and product improvements, and place customer value at the center throughout the entire product lifecycle.
