BDI is a consulting research organization that provides new product development (NPD) services to corporations and governmental entities.
Innovation Services
BDI provides NPD education, mentoring and consulting services, including:
- An NPD seminar that focuses on product concept development, documentation, and processes.
- Mentoring of in-house NPD teams.
- On-demand research resource.
- Introduction and application of emerging technologies to client product lines.
Seminar
BDI offers a NPD Concept Development workshop. This three-day, in-house seminar will improve your research and development font-liner's ability to move from technology or need to well-developed and documented product concepts. More information can be found on the seminar page.
Mentoring
Mentoring is a focused education/consulting activity that will both improve in-house expertise and increase the speed and quality of R&D activities. Mentoring is best applied to a small project group with a focused set of priorities. This service is customized to the customer's needs, please contact us for additional information.
R&D Services
For companies that lack comprehensive R&D resources, or whose R&D resources are overcommitted, BDI can produce on-demand new product concepts focused on your current needs.
