NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT CONSULTING

We help accelerate your new product development processes, improve speed-to-market and increase your return-on-investment!

The goal of the New Product Development Process Assessment is to dramatically improve the results of your product development process.

During the Assessment, the MindMatters’ Team examines the characteristics of your organization, your goals and objectives, your employee demographics and culture, as well as, current and previous innovation and product development process and implementation programs to arrive at a plan for improving innovation and designing and implementing an efficient and profitable new product development process.

The purpose of the Assessment is two-fold.  First, to identify a comprehensive set of recommendations for building your organization’s innovation and new product pipeline, and second, to identify your most pressing new product development process challenges that need to be solved and implemented.

At the end of the New Product Development Process Assessment, utilizing our two decades of innovation and product development expertise and best practice experience, we provide management with the results of our assessment, as well as, a comprehensive set of recommendations to help you achieve your desired results and improve the speed-to-market, ROI and profitability of your product development efforts.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CONSULTING

We help you improve the identification, tracking, processing, security, and protection of your most valuable asset – Intellectual Property.

The goal of MindMatters’ Intellectual Property Assessment Program is to dramatically improve the identification, tracking, processing, security and protection of an organization’s intellectual property.

We examine your organization’s “intellectual property” capabilities, policies, and processes, and determine where and how to best improve initial identification, processing efficiencies, tracking, security and protection for your trade secrets, trademarks, copyrights, and patent-able innovations.

We uncover possible areas of failure so that they can be corrected.  Areas such as unsecured data, insufficient security clearances, untracked information, incomplete or inefficient processes, unprotected trade secrets, etc…

At the end of our IP Assessment, we provide management with the results of our assessment, as well as, a comprehensive set of recommendations for achieving your organization’s desired IP success, security and protection.
