  2. Product lifecycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_lifecycle

    Each industry has several life-cycle models to consider, but most are relatively similar. Below is one possible life-cycle model; while it emphasizes hardware-oriented products, similar phases would describe any form of product or service, including non-technical or software-based products: [16]

  3. Product life-cycle theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_life-cycle_theory

    The Product Life Cycle Theory is an economic theory that was developed by Raymond Vernon in response to the failure of the Heckscher–Ohlin model to explain the observed pattern of international trade. The theory suggests that early in a product's life-cycle all the parts and labor associated with that product come from the area where it was ...

  4. Product life-cycle management (marketing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_life-cycle...

    The goals of product life cycle management (PLM) are to reduce time to market, improve product quality, reduce prototyping costs, identify potential sales opportunities and revenue contributions, maintain and sustain operational serviceability, and reduce environmental impacts at end-of-life.

  5. Hayes-Wheelwright matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayes-Wheelwright_matrix

    A company's place on the matrix depends on two dimensions – the process structure/process lifecycle and the product structure/product lifecycles. [1] The process structure/process lifecycle is composed of the process choice (job shop, batch, assembly line, and continuous flow) and the process structure (jumbled flow, disconnected line flow, connected line flow and continuous flow). [1]

  6. Product lifetime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_lifetime

    Prince was built 1863 and operated 1864–1936, 1955–1968, 1980-present, a product life of over 150 years, a service life of around 125 years. Product lifetime or product lifespan is the time interval from when a product is sold to when it is discarded. [1] Product lifetime is slightly different from service life because the latter considers ...

  7. Technology life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_life_cycle

    The technology life cycle (TLC) describes the commercial gain of a product through the expense of research and development phase, and the financial return during its "vital life". Some technologies, such as steel, paper or cement manufacturing, have a long lifespan (with minor variations in technology incorporated with time) while in other ...

  8. Technology adoption life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_adoption_life_cycle

    Say that a node v in a graph has d neighbors: then v will adopt product A if a fraction p of its neighbors is greater than or equal to some threshold. For example, if v's threshold is 2/3, and only one of its two neighbors adopts product A, then v will not adopt A. Using this model, we can deterministically model product adoption on sample ...

  9. Concurrent engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_engineering

    Concurrent Engineering (CE) is a systematic approach to integrated product development that emphasizes the response to customer expectations. It embodies team values of co-operation, trust and sharing in such a manner that decision making is by consensus, involving all perspectives in parallel, from the beginning of the product life cycle.
