Developing a new business: its organisation, planning and control
Article Abstract:
Corporations consider new business development (NBD) when demand for traditional products declines. A conceptual frame work for NBD includes eight interrelated stages: (1) selection of NBD as a corporate planning strategic option; (2) specification of a remit giving guidelines; (3) organization of NBD activity giving internal structure; (4) identification of NBD opportunities; (5) evaluation and selection of NBD ideas; (6) adoption of appropriate NBD entry strategy; (7) preparation of business plans including planning and control at key development, production and marketing stages; and (8) evaluation of resources and viability of NBDs.
