Abstract: | Companies may have difficulties in adapting design as a strategic tool in industrial competition if they do not have an understanding of its meaning and value in practice. Part of the problem stems from the lack of a clear typology of design dimensions and attributes -- the equivalent of marketing's 4"P"s (Lorenz 1995). This research provides a fresh look at the design factor and a new typology and framework that will allow companies to analyze and adapt their values, image, process, and production (VIPP's), thereby gaining competitive advantage by design. |
