Product Sustenance Engineering
Rapid changes in technology and increasing competition have shortened product life cycles. This has impelled product companies to constantly innovate and roll-out new product lines, however one cannot ignore the sustenance of the older products to ensure higher profits.
In order to stay ahead of the curve, product companies are looking for engineering partners who can own product sustenance. eInfochips has been working with leading product companies in sustaining their mature product lines to ensure the following:
Higher Return On Investment
- Reduce cost of product enhancements, improve support resource productivity, efficiency
- Increase product lifecycle revenue, extend product lines for new features
Redirect Focus & Resources to New Products
- Balance core (NPI) vs context (product support, sustenance) with finite resources
- Move support programs to managed or outcome-based service models
Enhance Customer Loyalty
- Meet functional, non-functional needs and minimize technical support
- Ensure easy install/configure, use, integrate, upgrade & replace
These business goals can be achieved through a combination of customization/enhancement at hardware, firmware, software and mechanical levels. Leveraging our expertise across the product stack, eInfochips can help in product transformation by offering different solutions.
