Background and Major Constraints of the Project
A product under goes many processes before it is launched. Early launch of a product might me very harmful for the brand as well as the end users. Usually early launch takes place due to reasons such as avoidance of competition. If a particular brand notices that its opponent brand has designed and planned to launch a product similar to its own, it tries to avoid the competition. This results in early launch of a product. Another reason to early launch of a product is to earn more money and to reduce the cost incurred in the manufacturing of the product. The early launch of a product makes a brand earn more than expected. The early launch of a product incurs less cost in its production s well as advertisement and other extra expenses Frattini, Bianchi, Massis and Sikimic, 2014. The product chosen for this report is a phone. The early launch of a phone excites the customers and it increases the amount of money gained at the end. This process may be exciting and profitable in short run but for long run, it might be harmful. The early launch of a phone may create lot of problems faced by the company, the stakeholders involved in it and the end users. The report discusses regarding the problems or challenges faced during the early launch of a phone. It further gives some recommendations that can be applicable for avoiding the issues faced and improve the situation.
Reasons for complexity in the project
Launching of a phone involves various processes such as testing the durability of the phone, the design is likeable or not, the software is perfect r not and many more factors. The early launch of a phone does not include all the tests that a phone goes through before launching. Early launching also does not include enough of advertisement. In the early launching of a product the director of the project is pressurized by the higher authority. The director is pressurized regarding the early launch of the product Giardino, Wang and Abrahamsson, 2014. At first, the director refuses to do so because this involves May risks. The higher authority forces the director to launch it early and it is done accordingly. After launching the product, it faces many risks. Due to these risks, the stakeholders are affected. The early launch of a phone affects the customers as well; it might be very harmful in the aspects of identity security of the customers.
Methodology for Managing the Project
The early launch of a product faces various challenges. These challenges are faced due to the loopholes in the manufacturing process of the phone. It may also occur if the phone does not go through the usual process. Some challenges faced by the early launch of a product are as follows
A product undergoes a number of tests regarding its productivity. The tests are related to the efficiency of the phone. It checks that the phone works flawlessly without any problem in its software or hardware. The tests include test of software Khajavi, Partanen, Holmström and Tuomi, 2015. This test assures that the phone works without hanging; it has no problem in its software. The snapdragon installed in it works effortlessly. The pre-installed softwares are useful and they work properly. It also tests that the applications do not have the right to steal the identity f the user. This might causes many problems to the user as well as the company. In the early launch of a phone, it does not g through the tests; this does not let the authority to know if the product has any loopholes. This challenge makes the project complex because testing is an important part of the process. Excluding this part, the launching of the phone creates many problems.
In the early launch of a phone, it faces many security issues. The robusting of the product is not done well which results in theft of the identity of the users. Customers using the phone would use internet in it and open some sites that require some personal information such as the email id and password of the user. Applications such as Whatsaap Facebook and many more information such as phone number, picture, location and many more. If the robusting of the phone were not done properly, hackers would steal the personal information for ill purposes. Some shopping sites such as Fipkart and Amazon require some personal information such as bank account details Lee, Kim, Park and Kang, 2014. These details are most dangerous if thieves get hold of it. The bank account details can be used for many ill purposes including fake transactions. These transactions would not let the customer know anything about it. These problems are faced by the customer if the robusting of the phone is not done properly. In testing the problems or loopholes are detected and these problems are rectified. If testing is not done, the problems are not detected and this creates problem for the customers. In the early launch of the phone, these risks are very natural. This risk is complex because the early launch of a phone would have security issues and allow the theft of the identity of the customer. This will affect the customer as well as lower down the brand name. There would be trust issues regarding the products of the brand.
Challenges Faced During the Early Launch of a Phone
The early launch of a phone does not allow enough time for testing of software as well as hardware. If the hardware were not well tested, the phone would not be durable. The loopholes are detected after testing and they are rectified after that. When the product is not tested, the loopholes are not detected and it creates problem later on Lipizzi, Iandoli. and Marquez, 2015
Hardware problem may cause inefficient performance. Hardware problems make the phone to heat up without any reason and many more problems. Nowadays people prefer hardy phones. The pre launch of a product causes many hardware issues.
A phone is tested in all aspects before launching. Its hardware, software, performance and many more are tested before it is launched in the market for customers to use. The early launch of the phone leads to software loopholes in the phone. Some pre-installed softwares might not work properly. The early launch of the phone causes many software issues. If the software does not function well the phone lags behind and it faces heating problem.
The early launch of a phone creates many problems. It creates risk for the market, customers as well as the company.
The early launch of a product creates trust issues among the customers because the phone that is launched without any testing is sure to have faults in it. These faults bring disappointment among the customers. One of the early launches of a phone is to earn more money but in this process, the brand loses its loyal customers Persson and Jönsson, 2016. The loyal customers are loyal because they have been using the products of that brand and they trust the products. The early lunch of a phone lags behind and causes problem for the customers. This makes the company to lose its loyal customers
The early launch of a product makes the product faulty in some or the other fields. The early launch of products does not include testing of the products, thus leads to faulty product and affect the brand value of the company.
The major risk of delivering of the product is that the manufacturing of the products needs to stay in a sufficient amount of production of the mobile must be efficient in numbers. This fact will lead to the exhaustion of the product as soon as the availability of the product is found Woodward, 2018. Because the mobile will be launched early the number of mobiles launched will be low in numbers, leading to the fact that the demand of the product cannot be met. This is one of the major issues in the delivering of the products. This causes imbalance in the production and the demand ratio. Leading to the fact that the probability of the moil staying in the market reduces as the audience do not prefer to wait for the product manufacturing for a very long time, leading to the fact that the business life cycle of the product reduces and the organization faces loss in the terminology of the business.. This is the reason that the delivery of the product acts very important in the processing of the business and gaining control over the global audience.
Recommendations for Avoiding Issues and Improving the Situation
This processing of the project ensures the fact that the entire task is dependent on the governance of the manufacturing committee. The manufacturing of the project is completely dependent on the higher authorities of the organization. This is the reason that ensures the fact that the processing of the product during the manufacturing of the product is directly related to the governance procedure of the manufacturing committee Kahn, 2014. The robustness regarding the security of the product is directly proportional to the method of manufacturing of the process. In case there is a pressure from the higher authorities of the brand for launching the product before the date, the major problems arise. The only way to launch a mobile before its designated time is by compromising in terms of the robustness of the processing of the mobile. The diversity of the mobile in terms of the hardware and software gets equally affected. The robustness of the mobile not only deals with the fact that the hardware of the mobile is affected but also the software of the mobile also acts to be the major affected region. The decrease in the robustness of the hardware also decreases. This ensures the fact that the hardware of the mobile will be affected in a negative way and the fragility of the mobile will increase in this process. this is one of the major reason that the governance of the production of the process is required. In case here will not be any kind of pressure from the higher authorities, the manufacturing team can focus more on maintaining tee robustness of the mobile, leading to the fact that the mobile that is manufactured will get better proportion regarding the hardware of the project. The most vital problem is that the software of the mobile gets affected too due to the lack of managerial skill and lack of governance efficiency during the manufacturing o the mobile Stark, 2015. Proper governance will ensure that the processing of the mobile will be done in the terminology of the compromising the software that is used in the mobile. In case the glitches in the software is present and the processing of the flaws of the mobile gets detected and the imposters present in the networking zone will take full advantage of the flaws and the identity of the clients will be at stake. Leading to the fact that the processing of the data from the framework of the networking system Woodward, 2018. This ensures the fact that the privacy of the direct stakeholders remains at stake. The management of the governing committee plays a vital role in the processing of the terminology of the project. This ensures the fact that the project performance is directly related to the processing of the managerial committee. The planning of the project during the time of initiation is the most important aspect of the processing of the mobile. The governing committee o the mobile manufacturing brand is responsible for the processing of the pre planning of the manufacturing of the mobile, ensuring the fact that the processing f the project will ensure the methodology of the termination of the project.
The methodologies that must be used for the processing of the flaws that are incorporated during the processing of the mobile is said to be the major issues in the management of the mobile is of major concern for the manufacturing of the mobile. The imposters can process these flaws and the security of the clients and the stakeholders using the mobile will stay at stake. This is the reason that the processing of the mobile phones regarding the security of the product must be maintained. The problems arise in both cases namely the hardware of the mobile and the software of the mobile Cooper, 2017. To get rid of the flaws present in the processing of the mobile manufacturing committee needs to focus on the functioning of the mobile regarding the processing of the security of the mobile. This fact ensures that the processing of the processor that is included in the phone is tested to a extent that will ensure the fact that the processor of the mobile is robust enough to take the scars that are going to come in the functioning of the mobile regarding the processing of the mobile phone. This ensures the fact that the data processing of the mobile must be efficient in nature. In order to launch the product early and compromise the performance of the mobile, the best way to procure them is by setting of the most advanced processor available in the market Rodriguez, 2016. This will ensure the fact that the imposters that are present in the processing of the network management will not be able to process the data as the loop holes that are present in the terminology of the processor is still not leaked and exposed. Another major concern for the processing of the mobile that is launched before the estimated time is that the hardware of the mobile is not very robust in nature and the time provided for the testing of the product is very less and the production includes the fact that the product must undergo several test before getting lunched as the hardware of the product is of great importance in the processing of the mobile phones. This takes into consideration the fact that that the mobile gets easily fragile to stay protected from these problems the brand must provide corning gorilla glass to its most advanced version, as the testing of the product is not done properly due to the reason that the mobile is launched before the estimated deadline of the project. The corning gorilla glass protects the screen from the physical shocks leading to the fact that the robustness of the mobile is maintained Nagel, 2017. Back covers of the mobile must be provided in the package as the hardware of the product is well maintained refraining the fact that the processing of the mobile will ensure the project that the mobile hardware is maintained and the projection of the mobile is maintained.
The stakeholders of this project are directly related to the processing of the mobile and the manufacturing of the project. in case the processing of the flaws present in the mobile affects the stakeholders directly as the processing of the data management of the networking system relating to the data security of the stakeholders Diamantopoulos, 2016. The presence of the probation of the probation of the data transfer through the networking system will ensure the fact that the processing of the data can be easily approached by the imposters and the imposters can get access to the personal data the stakeholders leading to the fact that the imposters act on behalf of the flaws of the organization leading t the fact that the bank accounts can be accessed by the imposters. The imposters can take advantage of the unauthenticated access to the banking count o[f the client and make transaction hence wise in the terminology of the processing of the data. This includes the fact that the financial conditions of the stakeholders are affected as well leading to the processing of the bank account so the clients. This is the major reason of worry for the stakeholders who are directly related to the projection of the data management of the clients. Another major problem is that the hardware of the mobile not being very robust is fragile in nature leading to the fact that the processing mobile can get affected easily and the mobile can get physical damaged during the functioning of the mobile Woodward, 2018. The stakeholders of the mobile phones gets into position that will include the fact that the processing of the mobile costs high and the hardware of the mobile is not very robust in nature and the probation of the mobile cost efficiency reduces and the stakeholders remains unsatisfied and the brand loyalty of the brand decreases.
- The only recommendation incurs the fact that the procession of the early launch of the product must be avoided as the processing of the mobile must be made robust and the hardware of the mobile must be well built and connectivity of the mobile must be well built as well. To get rid of the flaws present in the processing of the mobile manufacturing committee needs to focus on the functioning of the mobile regarding the processing of the security of the mobile. This fact ensures that the processing of the processor that is included in the phone is tested to an extent that will ensure the fact that the processor of the mobile is robust enough to take the scars that are going to come in the functioning of the mobile regarding the processing of the mobile phone.
- The processing of the mobile ensure the fact that the antivirus security services must be provided in the mobile systems leading to the fact that the access of the imposters can be stopped and thee data that are stored in the data base of the mobile remains safe. On following the recommendations the processing of the mobile will get better, the stakeholders of the organizations will not get much affected, and the processing of the mobile organization will be more efficient in nature.
