LeanSigma^® Product
Development

Today’s most effective
product development process:
unprecedented new efficiencies,
lightning-fast to market.

Is your product development a competitive advantage – or is it costing you revenue, profit and market share?

Most companies, by necessity, have streamlined their manufacturing processes. With few exceptions, however, even the “leanest” manufacturers are still developing and introducing products the same way they have for years.

Those traditional processes are filled with wasted time, inefficiency and unnecessary costs:

• Designs driven by politics or perceived needs
• Production of expensive prototypes
• Large-scale performance tests in the design phase
• Unnecessary product and process complexity,
  non-common parts
• Last-minute design changes
• Delayed launches

TBM developed LeanSigma® Product Development – today’s fastest and most efficient product development process – to help clients quickly transform their existing process into powerful competitive advantages.

“The first product we developed with this process was in the market in a third of our normal time. The design is unlike any other comparable product, with benefits our customers are really excited about. Our biggest competitor in that market already wants to license it from us.”
Timothy H. Powers, Chairman and CEO,
Hubbel Incorporated

“We’re developing game-changing products and delivering them to market faster than ever before. Considering the opportunities for innovation in our industry, this process has not only become our product development model, it’s also a critical part of our growth strategy.”
Robert Baxter, Director of Data Communication Marketing, Hubbell Incorporated

What would it mean to dramatically reduce your development costs - and be consistently first to market with innovation, high-appeal products?
