A new model of conceptual design based on Scientific Ontology and intentionality theory. Part II: The process model

TL;DR: A new process model of conceptual design, i.e., the Need-Function-Principle-System model, which elaborates a conceptual design process with five major stages, can explain how a need in the intentional world is transformed into a function and then into an abstract principle in the semi-objective world.

New product development practice application to an early-stage firm: the case of the PaperPro® StackMaster™

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a simplified new product development process for new ventures and detail its application to a consumer product over a two-year period, demonstrating how established firm NPD practices such as phase gates and market planning can be successfully adopted by early-stage firms and highlights practices that are critical to project success.

On the use of directional and incremental prototyping in the development of high novelty products

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of prototypes and prototyping in the development of two novel product innovations recently launched by an automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) was investigated through an exploratory case study, and it was found that prototypes provide the capability to aid learning and communication both within the development teams and across the organization.

Product-Service Systems - From Customer Needs to Requirements in Early Development Phases

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss how needs and requirements are applied in early phases of product-service systems (PSS) and propose a simple model to set need and requirements in relation.
