The product concept is crucial in new product development (NPD) because it represents an NPD project’s goal. In this context, most prior studies have regarded product concept development as a linear process but some recent studies have revealed that it also has nonlinear characteristics. The objective of this paper is to explore why this inconsistency has arisen and to develop a model and theory that illustrate both aspects of product concept development. To achieve this, we adopt the perspective of organisational interpretation systems (Daft and Weick (1984). Toward a model of organisations as interpretation systems. Academy of Management Review, 9(2), 289–295) and explore eight product development cases. Consequently, we develop a three-stage model and find that the linearity or nonlinearity of product concept development is determined by each NPD team’s assumption about the environment. We also consider product innovativeness and function equivocality, and establish that these are related to the NPD teams’ assumptions about the environment.

The aim of the paper is to provide a new view on the practice of concept development and the implementation of strategic management in the context of the return of some agricultural enterprises to the principles of a planned economy. Lack of research on this direction makes a topic of the paper is promising for consideration. This paper provides evidence-based explanations of the problem. As a result of research followed steps were made: the components of the algorithm of actions for the main executor of the strategy are singled out; the scheme of realization of strategic planning is offered; a list of predictive calculations has been compiled, which underlie modeling of the main directions of the industry development and are necessary for forecasting the development of agriculture; the criteria and principles of sustainable regional development have been determined and a scheme for its implementation has been developed.

Abstract Along with the ever-increasing customer demands, early consideration of variation in terms of robust design is important to avoid expensive iterations in the product development. However, existing methods are detached from the development process and can therefore only be applied at a late stage or only with comprehensive expert knowledge. Especially in the concept stage, where the geometry of a product is not yet defined and the optimisation potential is high, effective solution proposals for systematic consideration of variation are lacking. Therefore, this paper describes a new integrated approach facilitating robust and tolerance design in the concept stage. The novelty of the approach using ontologies and graph-based visualisation is the close linkage of product development and tolerance knowledge, which allows automation and helps to avoid time- and cost-intensive iteration loops. As a result, a robust and tolerance-compliant concept design, an initial qualitative tolerance specification and instructions for the further tolerancing process are already available at the end of the concept stage. The applicability and the benefits of the approach are illustrated by representative case studies and a user study allowing a critical comparison between the conventional, mostly subjective procedure and the presented approach.
