IBM’s Integrated Product Development (IPD) Process
(Product Management Experience Series)
IBM’s IPD management system is all about people and process working together to deliver successful solutions. Designed to optimize the development and delivery of successful products and offerings, the intent of this systematic process is threefold: to determine which products and services have the greatest marketplace potential, which investment opportunities hold the most business promise, and then to manage the delivery of the product/solutions.
Jon Prial, Vice President, Content Management and Discovery Software, will describe the principles, processes, tools, and enablers of this structured development process. The presentation will detail the phases the process is broken into as well as decision checkpoints that are used to allocate resources to projects.
