Hybrid Development

AbstractMore than 15 years after the publication of the agile manifesto of software development, agile development approaches have also reached the processes of physical product development. Because of the boundary conditions and requirements here, which differ strongly from those of pure software development, these approaches often reach their limits. However, research and practice have quickly recognized that hybrid approaches integrate the strengths of agile and plan-driven development. This paper presents 25 hybrid development approaches that have been identified in a Systematic Literature Review.

Embedded Case Study

PurposeThe paper explores coordination practices in digital–physical product development and their consequences for companies traditionally relying on physical product development.Design/methodology/approachUsing an embedded case study design, the paper reports four action research initiatives addressing the digital–physical coordination challenges encountered by a leading B2C company.FindingsEffective coordination of digital–physical product development, firstly, involves standardization of process, output and skills to accommodate the stability needed for efficient physical product development and manufacturing. Secondly, it involves agile coordination events, such as Scrum ceremonies and PI planning, to facilitate the mutual adjustment needed to allow agility and the differences between digital and physical product development to be continuously and successfully negotiated.Research limitations/implicationsThe paper illustrates a research model with case evidence and suggests tentative theory in the form of propositions. Future research should explore coordination problems and solutions in different digital–physical project types and contexts.Practical implicationsCoordination practices for digital–physical product development are presented and analyzed, providing inspiration for companies.Originality/valueThe paper is the first to explore coordination practices within the emerging field of digital–physical product development.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate how digital and physical product development can be successfully coordinated and which new product development and contextual practices are suitable for the combined digital-physical product development process. Design/methodology/approach The paper is based on a multiple-case study within one company with three digital-physical product development projects as the units of analysis. The data collection and analysis are guided by an existing research model. The case study is used deductively to illustrate the model. Findings When combining digital and physical development processes, one or both need to change. This may lead to sub-optimization of one or both of the processes but optimizes the combined digital-physical process. Various development and coordination practices as well as contextual measures must be put into place to improve fit to the digital-physical process characteristics and mixed materiality. Research limitations/implications The paper illustrates the research model with case evidence and suggests tentative theory in the form of propositions. Further research needs to explore the impact of the practices and contextual measures proposed. Practical implications This research proposes a range of conditions facilitating the successful development of digital-physical products. Originality/value This paper is among the first to empirically explore the complex process of digital-physical product development. Taking a process perspective and focusing on organizational and managerial practices and the influence of context, organization theory is used as the theoretical lens.

Voice Of The Customer

Meeting customer demands in the form of product multiattributes during the Automotive Product Development Process is the key for achieving superior product quality. Using the Voice of the customer expressed in these multi-attributes to develop Vehicle, Subsystems, and Components Technical Specifications is a necessary step during the early phases of the process. Achieving these multi and sometimes conflicting attributes, however, is the main challenge and the real measure of the process success. In this paper, a general approach to multi-attribute balancing in Automotive Product Development Process is presented. The development of vehicle technical specification based on the voice of the customer is addressed. The processes to flow vehicle level attributes to subsystems and components design targets and constraints are outlined. A resolution process for resolving conflicts between these targets during the early design phases is presented. To demonstrate the application of the resolution process and the steps for multi-attribute balancing of automotive components three different automotive examples are discussed.
