Abstract:
The shift from seller’s to buyer’s markets in many different product divisions leads to a raising role of the user in product development processes. Especially implicit decision parameters such as comfort feeling need better consideration. This article suggests to consequently integrate models and tools from other disciplines, e.g. marketing, to generate competitive advantages due to a better fulfillment of user’s needs. In those areas, focusing on users is much more established. As a starting point, a first glance of the topic is given by adapting Portfolio Models. The potential to directly link “soft” user decision parameters with product properties without any intermediates offers value to minimize misleading product development efforts. Further investigation in this area is recommended.
