Abstract:

While collaboration has become almost routine for developing product or service solutions that span multiple technologies, only a handful of companies have made co-development an integral element of their business models, building a strategy for continuous cross-enterprise development. These companies have grasped that R&D strategy has become inseparable from value-chain participation strategy, and have developed processes for forming and managing deep collaborative relationships.

Their co-development model has three levels: a strategy for development chain design; process and governance structures that define how the partners will work together, and information technology that effectively supports collaborative development.
