One of the most significant competitive advantages that we offer lies in our ability to help our customers get new products to market quickly and efficiently through our NPI process. Execution of this cross-functional business-focused process allows us to fully support our customers’ needs in new product development, product redesign and/or transition of existing product.
At Allegro-Intandem, our NPI process is both comprehensive and detailed. The value proposition is tremendous – you concentrate on your core business, while we focus on lowering product costs, reducing lead times, establishing a reliable supply chain, and ensuring that your product can be efficiently manufactured to the appropriate quality standards.
We use a toll gate system whereby specific deliverables have to be met in order to move to the next phase in the process. This data-driven, systematic process improves communications, shortens "time to market", minimizes missed deadlines, increases project management efficiencies, and avoids risk through continuous improvement and preventive activities.
Detailed Operating Method Sheets (OMS) are created to cost-effectively bridge the gap between prototype and sustainable volume manufacturing.
