Several factors are now aligning to enable organizations to finally be in a position to realize the full benefits of this critical practice – product line roadmapping. The result will be that over the next five to ten years we will see company after company try to out-pace their competitors as they ramp up their roadmapping capabilities. Roadmapping, particularly product line roadmapping, will have profound impact on product management and product development.
View this presentation to discover what’s enabling this change and the benefits your organization can realize from product line roadmapping.
Executives across all industries often ask us how to best integrate Agile techniques into their innovation processes. They want to drive responsiveness to rapidly changing markets and technologies, tackle hybrid digital + physical product development, and accelerate product launches. Agile Expert, Colin Palombo highlights successful approaches companies have taken to integrate Agile techniques into Stage-Gate® Frameworks to achieve better innovation results.

Within universities and research institutions there are no shortage of good ideas; but not all of those ideas make commercial sense.

Since the 1950s, corporate strategy thinking has been evolving—new strategy frameworks are introduced each year. Today, there are literally 100s of strategy frameworks that have been developed by strategists, academics, and consulting firms.
This presentation presents a historical chronology of key strategy frameworks that have been developed over time. We see how strategy thinking has progressed from "Classic" frameworks to more progressive thinking over time.
In fact, these identified frameworks are mapped against the Strategy Framework Canvas, which identifies 5 distinct approaches to strategy. The Strategy Framework Canvas is a unifying choice framework that guides us in selecting the appropriate strategy for the circumstances at hand and execute it effectively. These 5 strategy approaches are:
1. Classic
2. Adaptive
3. Visionary
4. Leader
5. Renewal
Each approach is driven by a unique business environment, characterized by 3 dimensions: Predictability, Malleability, and Harshness.

Major problems associated with product proliferation include higher production, inventory, and record-keeping costs; increased expenses associated with trade promotions and slotting fees; added consumer confusion and stress; and increased susceptibility to stockouts. This presentation describes how a firm can limit product proliferation without incurring reduced sales or lowering consumer loyalty. An effective product proliferation reduction program needs to be based on several principles: resisting the temptation of asking consumers if a greater assortment is required; classifying goods into consumer behavior-based tiers; using interfunctional product pruning teams; practicing mass customization, where appropriate; placing absolute limits on product choice; and implementing effective strategies for product pruning.

The collaboration between business and technology while building digital products is still not as close as it should be. This lack of close collaboration and common understanding that product and software design mutually impact each other leads to badly designed systems that can constrain business evolution.
In this talk, Codurance co-founder Sandro presents helpful techniques on how a more collaborative way of working can be achieved, in order to align product and software design.

11. Four Unique Components of
Product Line Roadmapping
1
The direct link to NPD portfolio management: Does this portfolio carry out
each product line roadmap?
2
Focus on product line platform leverage and product line strategy. One or
more platforms become the focal point of roadmapping iterations.
3
Using all information and transformed insights, creatively generate targets
for innovation, products in concepts (PICs), new platform exploration, and
technology scouting charters … for inclusion in the front end portfolio. It’s
about the flow: raw information value insight decisions/actions
4
“Fits strategy” transforms to “on roadmap.” Individual new product
concepts do not go to concept screening. Rather, due diligence is to
convert the concept to a PIC… evaluate its position on a roadmap… build
out the PIC using roadmap constraints and insights… move the PIC to
concept generation.

Improved Product Line
Strategies:
Remove Latencies:
Smart product line roadmaps
enable the creation of realizable
product line strategies
• Enabling a line of products, not
just a one-off product
• Providing a game to beat
competitors, with full due
diligence and understanding
• Leveraging the product line
platform… implying notable
strategic gains
Product line roadmaps improve
speed-to-market due to shared
vision, alignment, collaboration
and coordination… across all
stakeholders
• More efficient and timely
execution across functions
• The minimization of latency (lost
time) of full product line build out

Faster Organizational
Response:
Product line roadmapping (the
process) enables organizations
to recognize and respond
quickly to specific new
opportunities, risks, changes,
threats… proficiently manage
uncertainty
• Product line roadmapping
generates the content of what-if
explorations of uncertainty
• Enables an organization, across
all functions, to quickly and
intelligently react to all
environmental influences

True Linkage to Business Strategy:
Front-to-Back Process Integration:
Product line roadmapping extends the impact
of stage/gate and portfolio management to
levels these processes cannot accomplish
alone
• Gate Criterion: “Is this project critical to the
roadmap?”; enabling an understanding as to
whether the organization is working on the
right set of projects
• Portfolio Management: “Is this portfolio
„balanced‟?” becomes “Does this set of
projects fulfill the needs of the roadmap(s)?”
Product line roadmaps are a significant
addition to business strategy… enabling
linkage of product line strategies with one
another and with other strategy “links”
• In business strategy… links in a chain to create a
business strategy: Ex: a supply chain strategy link,
sales strategy link, operations strategy link, an
intellectual property strategy links, a human resource
strategy link and multiple product line strategy links.
• Roadmaps define product strategies as specific links
enabling connection with other product line
strategies… more than just coordination of product
development activities with non-product development
activities
• Establishes a critical and recognizable role for product
line strategies in overall business strategy

16. The Profound Value Proposition
of Product Line Roadmapping
1
Notably increased efficiency and proficiency:
Each of the five contributors will increase output measure (Speed, Strategic
Impact, Resource Use Efficacy) by at least 10% and as much as 30%. If each
contributing factor added a 15% gain (1.15 raised to the 5th) then you will double
the output of a product line’s build with the same resource input.
2
Gain competitive advantage:
Through focused, coordinated actions that leverage the product line platform an
organization will gain competitive position.
3
Investment breakeven is so low:
While my claim is to double the output of a product line, the breakeven point on
the needed investment is usually 90%+ less than my claim
