Some type of construction Engineering consulting firms perform product architecture, engineering design and resource planning. Basis for price quotation and contract negotiation with potential contractors responsible for project execution. Product entirely shaped and design completely frozen prior to execution phase. Projects executed after formal contract is signed. Managed in formal and rigid style. No changes introduced. Focus: finish on time within budget. Little development, testing, redesign. Communication between teams through formal channels, documents, and forms. Regular meetings on a low rate basis: once a month / two weeks. Payment mechanism: Fixed price, contractual milestones.

10. Alex@Coman.orgTel:(972)3-510-1768 -10- WWW.Coman.orgR&D Management R&D ManagementCopyright 2002Dr. Alex Coman Type B: Next Generation Building a new product in a well-established industry, developing a derivative or modification of a previous design to achieve better performance, increased reliability or extended operational life. Contractors responsible for entire range of activities: engineering design, resource Planning, execution. Technologies employed not entirely new. Some development and testing. Only limited changes added to the initial design. Managers resist change and avoid excessive costs. Design frozen early, no later than first or second quarter of execution period, after one or at most two design cycles. No formal risk-management procedure Communication more intense, regular weekly or biweekly meetings of the management team, biweekly or monthly meetings with major subcontractors. Additional in-between Communications: ad hoc meetings, telephone, E-mail to resolve occasional problems.

11. Alex@Coman.orgTel:(972)3-510-1768 -11- WWW.Coman.orgR&D Management R&D ManagementCopyright 2002Dr. Alex Coman Type C: New Product Development Completely new product or system that did not exist in the past. Some new to the industry, new product line for company. 50% based on technical feasibility rather than market need, initiated by contractor. Long periods of development, testing and redesign. Design freeze scheduled in 2 nd or 3 rd quarter of the projects duration. Was not concluded until 2-3 design cycles were performed. Many changes were made before the products specifications were finalized. A much more flexible attitude, extensive trade-offs. Often requirements can not be met without substantial addition of time and budget. Sometimes customers agree to waive requirements. Intensive formal and informal communication among project teams, customers. Written status reports, computer printouts, minutes, messages and memos. But, major flow is oral, conducted during meetings for problem solving and information sharing. Meetings of the project team, all subcontractors, customers. Atmosphere of open communications and continuous discussions. In some cases social events: parties, barbecues and field trips to increase interaction and reinforce Team cohesiveness and spirit. Payment mechanism: Cost Plus components, contractual milestones.

12. Alex@Coman.orgTel:(972)3-510-1768 -12- WWW.Coman.orgR&D Management R&D ManagementCopyright 2002Dr. Alex Coman Type D: First-Of-A-Kind FOAK Projects envisioned to respond to some far-reaching needs. No adequate technology is available at project initiation. Focus: extremely high level of uncertainty as to what technology should be used. Customer decision to commit to the project marked by hesitation because of risk involved. To prove validity of the systems concept (POC) and to test unknown technologies: involve an intermediate program in which an experimental, scaled-down prototype model is built. Product design and specification freeze scheduled for a late moment, often during the third quarter of the project. 2-5 design cycles. Management style: high level of flexibility and tolerance for change, high awareness of potential problems. Atmosphere: Look for trouble – it must be there; if you dont see it, you have a problem. High uncertainty and continuous flow of changes require enormous amounts of information exchange and extensive communication. No one waited for formal meetings and documents to report problems and documents.
