ARTEMIS INTRODUCES PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS ASSESSMENT
Analyze strengths and weaknesses and identify improvement options
What is it?
The Artemis NPD Process Assessment is designed to enable a structured evaluation of an organization’s new product development and launch practices, and provide a framework for identifying improvement initiatives for each of the main process areas.
What do I get?
The assessment results in the generation of an overall performance signature for your organization compared against industry averages. Completing the assessment by answering all the questions, will require between 10 and 15 minutes of your time, after which you will receive an email inviting you to view the results of the assessment.
The signature along with information gathered through the questionnaire identifies the potential causes of non-performance, and provides a series of recommendations for implementing or improving new product development practices in your organization.
If you only partially complete the questionaire, the email also provides you with a custom link so you can return to your assessment and modify or complete your responses at a later date.
Other features include:
- interactive analyses by key process
- dynamically updated graphical results
- industry-specific and industry-wide ranking comparison
- process improvement recommendations and useful links
How it works
The complete assessment is structured around seven key process areas associated with new product development. A brief description of the process areas, along with a series of questions relating to the existence, use or quality of the processes enables the overall analysis of each process area.
You are required to identify which of the proposed answers most accurately reflects your appreciation of your organization’s current practices. A value on a scale of 1 to 4 is associated with each of the proposed answers.
The following generic responses provide a guide to the scoring:
1. Deficient - Processes are not defined, or not used
2. Defined - Processes are defined but are ineffective or inconsistent
3. Managed - Processes exist and are generally used
4. Optimized - Processes are used consistently, and optimized to integrate best practice.
