In Egypt, for example, the arrival of global QSRs in the late 1980s catalysed a highly-competitive industry comprising global QSRs (e.g. Wimpy's, McDonald's, Hardee's, KFC and Burger King - many of American origin) and local QSRs (e.g. Mo'men, Wessaya and Cook D

This thesis investigates the potential of User-Centered Design (UCD) and Agile to support Strategic Sustainable Development (SSD) practice in product and product-service system (PSS) design. UCD tools and concepts are used to support stakeholder and needs research. Agile provides process support for collaboration and resilience. SSD tools and concepts are used to define and work within the system boundaries for sustainability. All three practices are combined in an innovation approach that supports collaborative and cross-functional design teams as they develop products and PSS. Design teams u

Abstract:
When customers buy a new product, the reliability related issues such as the warranty/post-warranty service and the performance of the product are becoming important factors in the customers' decision-making process. In this dissertation, some important aspects in estimating both warranty and post-warranty repair demands have been studied. To ensure the new product will have a good performance, the availability of a repairable k-out-of-n:G system considering spare parts logistics is investigated. The installed base of the product varies with time due to both new sales and units being taken out

Existing categorizations of NPD project risks are partial or ill-defined and consequently there is no clear consensus among researchers and practitioners about what constitute NPD project risks. To address this gap, this thesis deploys a systematic literature methodology to inductively develop a comprehensive risk taxonomy from a review of 124 empirical studies. This taxonomy is then empirically validated through a survey capturing data from 263 NPD projects con
