The marketing research group focuses on the fuzzy front end and the muddy back-end of the new product development process.

In the muddy back-end of the development process, new products will be launched in the market-place. At this stage, commercialization and communication strategies are important and new products need to be positioned in such a way that customers understand and appreciate the benefits that will be delivered by the new product. The ultimate aim of this market oriented development process is the market acceptance of the new product.
