Abstract

The aim of the study is to look at the impact of 'NPD process planning proficiency' on NPD performance. In particular, the current study examines this effect at firm's level (NPD program), rather than at the level of individual project. This study investigate the impact of process planning proficiency considering other NPD proficiencies (i.e. marketing and technical proficiency). In addition to the main effect of process planning proficiency, the current study investigates the interaction effect between process planning proficiency and marketing proficiency (or technical proficiency). Based on a cross-industry sample of 103 Korean manufacturers, this study examines the impact of NPD process planning proficiency on product family performance. The current study focuses on platform projects which play a critical role on product family's successes. NPD process planning proficiency has significant impact on both NPD technical and commercial performance. Technical proficiency is not directly associated with NPD performance. However, this study finds the interaction effects of technical proficiency with process planning proficiency on NPD performance.

본 연구의 목적은 첫째, 프로세스 기획 역량이 신제품 개발 성과에 미치는 영향을 검증하고자 한다. 특히, 프로세스 기획 역량이 개별적인 프로젝트의 성과가 아닌 제품군 전체의 성과에 미치는 영향력을 검증하였다. 둘째, 개발 역량 간 상호작용이 신제품 개발 성과에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 본 연구는 국내 103개 제조기업으로부터 수집한 설문응답 분석에 기초하였다. 제품군 개발은 크게 두 가지 유형의 프로젝트 (플랫폼 및 파생제품 개발)으로 구분된다. 본 연구에서는 두 가지 프로젝트 유형 중, 제품군 성공의 중심적인 역할을 수행하는 플랫폼 제품을 중심으로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과 제품군의 기술적 성과 및 상업적 성과 향상을 위해 우수한 프로세스 기획 역량이 필요함을 보여준다. 또한 기술개발 역량은 기술적 성과에 직접적으로 유효한 영향을 미치지는 않지만, 프로세스 기획 역량과 상호작용을 통해 기술적 성과 향상에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.
