A guide to generating insight through research for product development
Research is the primary risk management tool you have in product development. It is also the biggest driver of insight and breakthrough ideas. The challenge many people face is doing it in a way that retains creativity and objectivity. Balancing the technical and human centred approaches can be a challenge but the results are worth it.
Understanding people’s needs and requirements is the key to unlocking insights, but is not enough on its own. It must be coupled with a broader understanding of the
business, product, and technical context; the product system.
This presentation sets out a practical approach to undertaking research for product development. It provides guiding principles for primary research and how to interpret information and create insights. Our approach has been developed from a range of other approaches and our own experiences. It provides a common approach that can be applied across all types of research.
A series of three presentations were delivered at the NZ Health Congress by Jono Jones (Locus Research), Professor Simon Fraser (Victoria University), and Timothy Allan (Locus Research). On the topics of FEA and Analysis in Healthcare, Additive and Rapid Manufacturing and Lean Startup

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

6. AgResearch
One of NZ’s seven ‘Crown Research Institutes’ (CRIs)
Each with a distinct role and group of stakeholders
AgResearch’s role is research related to pastoral agriculture – sheep,
cattle, deer, goats and the materials/foods they produce.
So, this includes wool and wool textiles
7. Innovation in a CRI – how does it happen?
Primarily as contract research projects
Instigated by clients or ourselves – guided by industry priorities
Funding sources
• Core funding
• MBIE Contestable
• Industry bodies
• Companies and organisations
In many cases we can be the ‘R&D department’ of our clients
8. Encouraging Innovation in AgResearch
An example: AgR’s Curiosity Fund
• Internal funding to encourage all staff to try out something they
are curious about
• Simple application process; proposals assessed by peers and
AgR’s top scientists
• 20 projects every year – product development, experimental
methods, new procedures, systems, etc.
• Some will turn into bigger projects and ultimately have an impact
for our stakeholders
9. Back to Wool… What’s it Worth to NZ?
• New Zealand fourth largest producer of wool, 11.2% of world production.
• Wool fibre export earnings year ended 30 June 2013 = $677.6 million
• Wool carpet and rug export receipts were $110.7 million.
• Intermediate products contribute a further $64.1 million.
• All wool products represented 1.9% ($852.4 million) of the total value of
New Zealand merchandise exports.
• Woolgrease exports and refined woolgrease products.
Where to next? (future R&D and commercialisation)
10. Snapshot – Wool Innovation for Industry Good
New Insect Resist Technologies
• Current wool insecticides becoming less
effective.
• Need to reduce insecticide in effluent
from dye-bath.
• The need to improve eco credentials of
insect resist treatments.

12. Snapshot – Wool Innovation as Product Development:
Gimono™
Where did it start?
- They approached us with the idea of making a better gi with wool –
having seen the growth in wool activewear.
- They had already evaluated existing fabrics – none were suitable.
Gimono Traditional cotton gi
13. Snapshot – Gimono™
What did AgResearch do?
- A fabric development project to
make a lightweight, high strength,
low-stretch, wool-rich fabric
- Focused on establishing a fabric
composition and structure that was
tough but comfortable next to skin.
- Identified knitted fabric
manufacturers capable of reliably
making the precise structure
required
- Helped put together the supply
chain
14. What Wool the Future Hold?
The ideal new use for wool is high value and relatively large volume
Exciting possibilities:
- Medical textiles
- Exploit biocompatibility; investigate the science of textile-
human interactions
- Health & wellbeing – skin health, thermophysiological comfort
- Wound dressings & implantables
- Technical applications
- Exploit unique attributes of wool e.g. moisture interactions,
flame retardant
- High performance sportswear
- Protective textiles including filters
15. The role of ‘traditional’ science in innovation
Some personal musings…
Science is a part of innovation, and both require persistence, rigour,
creativity, discovery…
Some scientists love learning about design, commercialisation,
entrepreneurship; others hate the idea
Scientists can learn a lot from working in a technology start-up!
Multidisciplinary teams (within and beyond science) are the future
Successful technological innovation requires both robust science and
good design
