Product Ideation And Research<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For the ideation portion of the process, the study will evaluate and make recommendations on the availability of the right industrial designers and the clarity of the product vision. Then for research, it will assess what type of research is needed, how much effort will be required, and the availability of key information. This is also where you take an initial<a data-wpil=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/gembah.com\/webinar\/how-to-protect-your-product-idea\/\"> look at the intellectual property<\/a> (IP) landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important takeaway is how much you should invest in ideation and research to be successful. Outputs include cost and schedule estimates and suggestions for further research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-product-design\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Product_Design\"><\/span><strong>2. Product Design<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Product design is critical to your product&#8217;s success, so it needs a long, hard look. This portion of your feasibility study evaluates the effort required and the technical feasibility of your product idea. It should also explore what type of technical resources your design and engineering team will need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is your proposed project a \u201cconvert-a-napkin-sketch-into-drawings\u201d or \u201cbring-in-the-hardcore-nerds\u201d effort? Because good design is an iterative effort, it should also estimate the best- and worst-case number of design cycles needed. The study will also delve into the schedule and the risks within the schedule, recommend verification and validation testing requirements, and identify when prototyping will be needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important takeaway is understanding what technical challenges \u2014 and potential failure points \u2014 you will face. Outputs include a cost estimate for the product design and a list of potential failure modes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-product-sourcing-assessment\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Product_Sourcing_Assessment\"><\/span><strong>3.

Outputs include location suggestions and recommendations on the type of manufacturing partner you should look for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-production-management\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Production_Management\"><\/span><strong>4. Production Management<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A failure at any step in the product development process is painful. A failure in manufacturing can be catastrophic because you are so late in the process, and fixing problems is a massive drain on your financial resources. A feasibility study will dig deep into production. Since you don&#8217;t have a production partner yet, it looks at typical failure modes in production around supply chain, quality, and production speed. It should evaluate the balance between labor-intensive and automated production. The study will calculate estimates for cost and schedule, capture dependency, and identify potential problems with the probable manufacturing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important takeaways are the potential points of failure and recommended backup options. Outputs include estimated production costs with a basic production schedule and feedback from manufacturing engineers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-product-logistics-and-compliance\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Product_Logistics_And_Compliance\"><\/span><strong>5. Product Logistics And Compliance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once made, you have to get your product to warehouses, shelves, and ultimately to your customers. As the recent pandemic-induced supply chain disruptions have shown, no matter how good your product is, it won&#8217;t sell if there is nothing to ship. This part of your feasibility study needs to find shipping weak points and suggest alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You also need to make sure your product meets local and national regulations and complies with standards. This is where your feasibility study will identify requirements and point out any that will be hard to pass. This is also where your team should<a data-wpil=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/gembah.com\/blog\/harmonized-tariff-schedule\/\"> look at tariffs<\/a> and other taxation issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important takeaway is identifying regulatory requirements. Outputs include a list of standards you need to meet and recommendations on preferred and backup shipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-supply-chain-management\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Supply_Chain_Management\"><\/span><strong>6.

Your feasibility study will help you understand what type of effort this requires and the long-term problems you may face. And, because you did a feasibility study, your product&#8217;s sales will grow. So, it will also look at if and how your supply chain can evolve to meet growing demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important takeaway is an estimate of how viable it is to scale your production to meet your long-term sales goals. Outputs include challenges to scaling and where you need to establish multiple suppliers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-don-t-forget-the-sales-and-marketing-strategy\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_Forget_The_Sales_And_Marketing_Strategy\"><\/span><strong>Don&#8217;t Forget The Sales And Marketing Strategy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although a full marketplace assessment is part of the research step in the NPD process, a good feasibility study will examine your market and how you plan to market and sell your product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a lot of unknowns at this point, but a good<a href=\"https:\/\/www.investopedia.com\/terms\/s\/swot.asp\"> SWOT analysis<\/a> of the market is a good place to start. The study should also gather some competitive information and map out comparable pricing. Without a doubt, one of the most valuable pieces of information you will get from a feasibility study is a preliminary market analysis showing how big your potential market is and the effort required to capture a part of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another area to focus on is the sales environment: assessing the type of sales used in your industry, the challenges, how large a sales team needs to be (if any), and the length of the sales cycle. Your team should also evaluate the different places your product can be sold\u2014an e-commerce site, retail, and\/or through Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important takeaways from this part of the study are <strong>estimates of your potential market&#8217;s size<\/strong> and how much of it you can practically capture. Outputs include a selling price estimate and a SWOT analysis of your product relative to the market.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner\">\r\n    <div class=\"title\">\r\n        <span class=\"light\">Launch Your Product Faster<br> with<\/span>\r\n        <span class=\"bold\">Gembah<\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"subtitle\">\r\n        <span>1000\u2019s of vetted factories, designers, and experts are a few clicks away!<\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a href=\"\/expert-help\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"cta-button\">Get Started Now<\/a>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<style>\r\n    .banner {\r\n        background-color: #0692FB;\r\n        background-image: radial-gradient(rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.07) 1.6px, transparent 1px);\r\n        background-size: 7px 7px;\r\n        color: #ffffff;\r\n        padding: 30px;\r\n        text-align: center;\r\n        font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\r\n        border-radius: 12px;\r\n        max-width: 540px;\r\n        margin: 20px auto 40px;\r\n        box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);\r\n        display: inline-block;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    .banner .title {\r\n        font-family: 'Poppins', sans-serif;\r\n        font-size: 28px;\r\n        margin: 5px 20px 0;\r\n        text-shadow: 1px 1px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);\r\n        line-height: 1.2;\r\n        color:#ffffff!important;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    .banner .title .light {\r\n        font-weight: 400;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    .banner .title .bold {\r\n        font-weight: 900;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    .banner .subtitle {\r\n        font-family: 'Jost', sans-serif;\r\n        font-size: 18px;\r\n        font-weight: 400;\r\n        line-height: 1.25;\r\n        margin: 14px 60px 20px;\r\n        text-shadow: 1px 1px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);\r\n        word-spacing: 0.8px;\r\n        color:#ffffff!important;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    \/* More specific selector with !important overrides *\/\r\n    .banner a.cta-button {\r\n        background-color: #fdbc52 !important;\r\n        color: #1e1e1e !important;\r\n        font-family: 'Jost', sans-serif !important;\r\n        font-size: 20px !important;\r\n        font-weight: 900 !important;\r\n        padding: 9px 19px !important;\r\n        border-radius: 6px !important;\r\n        margin: 15px 0 10px !important;\r\n        cursor: pointer !important;\r\n        text-decoration: none !important;\r\n        display: inline-block !important;\r\n        transition: background-color 0.3s ease !important;\r\n        box-shadow: 0px 6px 12px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3) !important;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    .banner a.cta-button:hover {\r\n        background-color: #e6a946 !important;\r\n    }\r\n\r\n    @media (max-width: 600px) {\r\n        .banner {\r\n            max-width: 90%;\r\n            margin: 20px auto;\r\n        }\r\n\r\n        .banner .title {\r\n            font-size: 20px;\r\n            margin: 0px 0;\r\n        }\r\n\r\n        .banner .subtitle {\r\n            font-size: 16px;\r\n            font-weight: 500;\r\n            margin: 20px 20px 0;\r\n            margin-bottom: 30px;\r\n        }\r\n\r\n        .banner a.cta-button {\r\n            font-size: 16px !important;\r\n            padding: 10px !important;\r\n            width: 100% !important;\r\n        }\r\n    }\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-conduct-a-product-feasibility-study\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Conduct_A_Product_Feasibility_Study\"><\/span><strong>How To Conduct A Product Feasibility Study<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Conducting a product feasibility study involves several critical steps to ensure comprehensive evaluation.

Here are six practical suggestions to ensure your study provides valuable insights and guides your project to success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-capture-and-prioritize-which-parts-of-the-project-you-need-to-study\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Capture_And_Prioritize_Which_Parts_Of_The_Project_You_Need_To_Study\"><\/span><strong>1. Capture And Prioritize Which Parts Of The Project You Need To Study<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A feasibility study is only useful if done on time and gives you the information needed to make a go\/no-go decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So start the process by looking at your project plan and identifying what information you need to decide and which are the most important. This will help your assessment team know what to focus on and how much effort to put into each study phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Decide how important aspects like legal requirements, technology requirements, staffing requirements, operational feasibility, economic feasibility, and financial feasibility are to the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-dig-deep-to-get-answers\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Dig_Deep_To_Get_Answers\"><\/span><strong>2. Dig Deep To Get Answers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For those high-priority items, the team needs to dig deep and keep asking \u201cwhy?\u201d to understand what generates threats and challenges and also how to deal with them. They should leverage whatever data is available to get quantitative information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great example is talking to the manufacturing engineers at any company supplying you with a production estimate. Don&#8217;t just take their quote. Ask questions about the project scope, challenges, and potential areas of improvement. Also, never use just one source. Get quotes and feedback from multiple people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-be-creative-in-looking-for-potential-problems\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Be_Creative_In_Looking_For_Potential_Problems\"><\/span><strong>3. Be Creative In Looking For Potential Problems<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A successful feasibility study involves thinking outside the box and using your team&#8217;s brainstorming skills to uncover potential problems and find solutions. The team should always ask themselves, \u201cwhat about this?\u201d while looking at every step in your product development process and go-to-market strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-learn-from-the-mistakes-and-success-of-others\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Learn_From_The_Mistakes_And_Success_Of_Others\"><\/span><strong>4. Learn From The Mistakes And Success Of Others<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t reinvent the wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take the time to explore what other businesses have done with similar products and uncover what went right and what went wrong. History is a great teacher if you look at it without bias and learn from the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great source for this type of information is the people you are getting estimates from. Ask them about similar projects and how they went.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-include-growth-and-scaling\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Include_Growth_And_Scaling\"><\/span><strong>5. Include Growth And Scaling<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are starting a project for a new product, it is tempting to just focus on the validity of getting the product to market. Yes, you need a successful launch, but you make your money over time by growing and scaling your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure your feasibility report includes looking at the challenges you will face over time, and especially how hard or easy scaling up production, logistics, sales, and marketing will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-identify-and-listen-to-multiple-stakeholders\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Identify_And_Listen_To_Multiple_Stakeholders\"><\/span><strong>6. Identify And Listen To Multiple Stakeholders<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a good thing people have specialties. However, specialists tend to be a little short-sighted. If they are experts at using a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you identify all of your project&#8217;s stakeholders\u2014from the person who came up with the idea to the end customer. Include people who can examine technology considerations and organizational structure. Ask them what they think and listen to what they have to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-let-s-get-started-on-your-feasibility-study\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lets_Get_Started_On_Your_Feasibility_Study\"><\/span><strong>Let&#8217;s Get Started On Your Feasibility Study<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re a startup or an established brand with products already on the market, when you start a new project, you should conduct a preliminary analysis of your product&#8217;s potential with a feasibility study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As suggested in the recommendations for success, you need a team with broad, interdisciplinary knowledge and proven competency to conduct your feasibility study efficiently.At<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gembah.com\"> Gembah<\/a>, we think this process is so important that<a href=\"https:\/\/marketplace.gembah.com\/package\/feasibility-study-complex-hXdlEFja\"> we offer a feasibility study<\/a> as a standard package through our Marketplace.
