For any manufacturing company, R&D (Research & Development<\/em>) plays a very important role in its success. Product development in many companies is increasingly derived from the knowledge gained through extensive research<\/span> and development work<\/span> along with fact findings from the market and key customers. While this can be viewed as a way to secure customer loyalty and reduce competitor threat, moving away from product-driven strategies to a more customer-centric focus<\/em><\/strong> can increase the possibility of significant innovation in the evolution of a product.<\/p>\n

R&D is very relevant in today\u2019s competitive scenario when customers are hankering for new products and new technologies. STAR LINK<\/strong> has in-house R&D team<\/strong><\/a> that meticulously works for embracing latest or upcoming technologies in the field of biometrics. Although, there are many other benefits of in-house R&D team for any company to decide its growth strategy. But no one focuses on how the customers can get benefit out of it.<\/p>\n

STAR LINK is one of those companies that routinely utilise customer feedback when designing new technology ranges biometric attendance<\/strong><\/a> and access control system<\/strong><\/a>. In this article, we will illustrate the relevant points and scenarios which can decide how customers and manufacturers both can get the advantage of in-house R&D team:<\/p>\n

Out-of-the-box Requirement of features<\/span>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes a customer has a unique requirement which is not possible for any company to provide in their standard product. But the company with in-house R&D team can customise their specific requirement and incorporate the technical aspects into their product to serve the purpose of the customer in the limited time frame.<\/p>\n

Embracing Latest Technology<\/span>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Any company can continuously upgrade their security and employee management system<\/strong><\/a> with the latest technology as the R&D team of their solution provider works to incorporate latest in their products and systems. The customer becomes informal, yet a highly valued participant in the R&D process when being given the opportunity to play a key role in driving innovation by the manufacturer.<\/p>\n

Direct Feedback Implementation<\/span>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

We now live in a time when manufacturers listening to consumers and refining their product designs and specifications accordingly is considered a key component of a solid and forward thinking R&D strategy.<\/p>\n

With above benefits to customers, there are many downsides of customer-centric R&D<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The most obvious one that comes to mind is that, while one customer\u2019s insight can lead to the improvement of product functionality, another might not have a sufficiently broad market vision to inspire true innovation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
