                       Introduction

                       The importance of the new products remains to be of key to all organizations. Tough

                       global  competition,  short  product  and  technology  lifecycles,  spontaneous  consumer
                       buying patterns and possible market immobility makes new product development an

                       important  activity  in  most  businesses.  New  products  provide  organizations  with
                       growth  prospects  that  permit  them  to  highlight  their  market  position.  Strategic

                       planning identifies opportunities for new product development and sets new product

                       planning  guidelines.  Creating  the  right  organizational  culture  that  can  encourage
                       innovation is one of the primary tasks for management. Developing successful new

                       products requires systematic planning and integration of various organizational cross-
                       functional activities. Without a clear roadmap from management it is challenging to

                       select the right innovation strategy. Management’s involvement in the new product

                       development processes directly or indirectly responsible for a new product’s success
