 Tying - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If the main product works better with the tied product than with others, the manufacturer may tie the products to avoid quality problems that could lead to product liability lawsuits or loss of reputation.
By threatening to withhold that key product unless others are also purchased, it is said, the supplier can increase sales of less necessary products.
Just as the definition of a car has changed to include things that used to be separate products, such as speedometers and radios, the definition of an operating system has changed to include those formerly separate products.

 Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : New product development   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Most industry leaders see new product development as a proactive process where resources are allocated to identify market changes and seize upon new product opportunities before they occur (in contrast to a reactive strategy in which nothing is done until problems occur).
Many industry leaders see new product development as an ongoing process (referred to as continuous development) in which a new product development team is always looking for opportunities.
In those industries where products are technically complex, development research is expensive, and product life cycles are short, strategic alliances among several organizations helps to spread the costs, provide access to a wider skills set, and speeds the process.

 The technology of traditional milk products in developing countries
Buttermilk produced by the churning of soured milk (dahi) is known as chhaas or chhach and as mahi in Nepal.
Churning is usually done by women and consists of rocking the vessel (gourds), or clay pots, which are suspended from a wooden post, or tripod, or placed on the ground or the woman's lap back andforth until butter granules form.
The churn is made of the same materials as the vessel for souring milk, except for the addition of the skin bag, which is used by the Afar pastoralists in the rift valley.

In a process similar to the sterilization of medical devices, flour and grain products can be irradiated with a low-power electron-beam system that treats bulk or packaged products by rapidly penetrating the packaging without disturbing the product.
Grain products may become readily contaminated by Listeria, Salmonella, and Escherichia coli, as well as grain beetles, lesser grain borers, flour beetles, Indian meal moths, Angoumois grain moth, flat grain beetle, saw-toothed grain beetle, bean weevil, and other insects, rodents, and pests that may carry bacterial contaminants.
Products could include milk, yogurt, cheese, butter, cream and other beverage- related products such as juices and mineral water.

 SIC 2026 Fluid Milk
Lactic acid-producing bacteria and certain characterizing ingredients may be added to fresh milk products and, depending on the level of milkfat, they may be labeled "cultured buttermilk," "cultured lowfat buttermilk," or "cultured skim milk (or nonfat) buttermilk." Yogurt, sour cream, dry curd cottage cheese, and cottage cheese are included in the cultured milk products category.
Consumers'; health concerns about fat in their diets presented opportunities for the introduction of flavorful low-fat and skim milk products, and dairy companies were working to improve the taste of these products in order to compete with nondairy beverages like soft drinks, bottled waters, beer, juices, and sports drinks.
Production workers, which accounted for over 40 percent of all positions, earned a mean annual salary of $28,330.

Churning is illegal but it is often hard to prove.
Both the NASD and the SEC define churning as unauthorized trading in a discretionary account — or an account in which the broker is authorized to trade without the prior approval of the client.
Regardless of the type of account you hold, if you have reason to suspect that your broker is not acting in your best interests, make sure you understand the reasoning behind his or her recommendations or decisions.

 Business ethics
The basis of these laws is the Quran, and they are amplified in the Hadith.
Libertarian socialists, sometimes known as left-anarchists, hold that, as Proudhon said, " Property is theft " -- that is, in reference to the ownership of productive resources, property is not the right to use, but the right to keep others from using.
Advocates of this philosophy therefore hold the "institution of property", as they sometimes call it, to be immoral in itself, so the accumulation of wealth that includes productive resources, especially land, is also immoral.

 Customer-based product design module - Patent 5999908
This Customer-Based Product Design Module invention uses a combination of computer hardware, software and communications technologies to construct a module that is built into certain products and services, to establish a network of customer-vendor-distributor interactions and communications (or a network of internal organization-wide interactions in the area of computer-based performance).
The customers and users provide direct, on-task understanding of their use of the products and services, and of their unfilled needs, to the product vendors, designers and developers Development Interactions (DI) will take place most often during actual uses of the product or service, which is when most unreported problems and dissatisfactions occur.
An agenda for product development may thus emerge from customer participation: the sphere of involvement and influence is potentially expanded far beyond product developers and internal managers (which is generally the scope at present).

There are about 200 firms in the Republic which are classed as speciality food or drink producers, those which produce food reflecting the particular ethos of their maker, or the essence of a culture, and are often hand-crafted using traditional recipes.
Mr Crumb marketing manager Jason Coyle gives a fine example: “All our gourmet products are cooked as generations of Irish woman have done in the kitchen whereby we sauté the onions in butter, then we add in fresh herbs, spices, bread crumbs, fruit and use fresh ingredients wherever possible.
“It’s a premium product in that we use all fresh materials in it, we don’t use any frozen or dried vegetables and everything is ‘sameday’ ingredients.

 The Company That Grew Too Fast
But the goal of 180s had long been to get beyond a one-brand, seasonal product like ear warmers, and that's what the war gaming and the secrecy were all about.
Le Gette doesn't disagree: "Ron was all about getting the product on the shelf." Le Gette, by contrast, didn't want the product on the shelf "until it was perfect." It made, he adds, "for a great struggle" -- and a great partnership -- for a long time anyhow.
It was understood that the new strategy might cost the company revenue in the first year for a given product -- when the target would be high-margin sales to specialty buyers -- but the theory was that it would lead to greater sales down the road when the product hit the department stores.

People with particularly strong accents, or those who have difficulty with the product churning out a higher than expected rate of errors, are recommended by Dragon to spend a little longer "training" the product so it can get used to the users voice.

Looking at pricing and models from 350 subscription database products offered by 85 different publishers, the report reveals that their online revenues have more than doubled since 2000, while revenues from print products offered by these database publishers have declined nearly 18 percent.
As Russell's report points out, print for the users of database publisher products is now the handy backup reference, the tool that's there when the network is down or you just know how to get to information efficiently in that medium.
Instead, as suggested by Patricia Joseph's latest report, finding diamonds in the rough of their existing databases, infrastructure and in alternative markets for existing content products may be the best way out of the margin dilemma for many publishers.

 'Slow churning' technology improves light ice cream. | Wholesale Trade > Merchant Wholesalers, Nondurable Goods from ...
Light ice cream generally tends to be light on delight as well as calories, but Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream says it has developed a "slow churned" method of making ice cream that produces a "light" product with the taste and texture of full-fat ice cream.
In the slow churning process, fat molecules are kneaded at a colder temperature, stretching and distributing them widely so the ice cream tastes as if it contains more butterfat, even though the ingredients are the same as in the company's old Dreyer's Light variety.
Eight of ten consumers in blind taste tests, the company said, concluded the new variety was either a full-fat premium or super-premium ice cream.
