The Impact of Dynamic Demand and Dynamic Net Revenues on Firm Clockspeed

  • Chapter
Optimal Control and Dynamic Games

Part of the book series: Advances in Computational Management Science ((AICM,volume 7))

Abstract

A firm's new product development clockspeed is determined by the frequency of new product introductions to the marketplace. Using a simple analytic model, we derive an optimal firm NPD clockspeed that is driven by several external market and internal organizational related factors. Specifically, we analyze the impact of dynamic sales/demand curves and dynamic net revenues on the optimal pace of new product introductions.
