Monitor and manage the true cost of NPD
Record any additional costs incurred during development of a product and while handling a customer brief.
This module allows you to capture unusual costs incurred during the NPD process at any of 3 levels: Brief e.g. had to fly somewhere to discuss the overall brief; Recipe e.g. had to buy in an expensive ingredient for recipe development; or Samples Out e.g. airfreight a sample abroad. These costs can then be summed up against the Brief, to get an idea of the total costs that are above and beyond the ordinary.
Option to record “hours” as well as costs
Capture unusual costs incurred during the NPD process and attribute back to a brief
