How do you conduct a post-launch analysis and learn from your outcomes?

A concisely written one sentence Mission Statement helps define the project deliverable(s). All project planning works backward from that single requirement. SMART goals are a great way of implementing the Mission Statement with your employees. They are set at regular one-on-one meetings with your staff, and they are a way of increasing employee participation in project planning. By giving everyone a seat at the planning table, employees gain an ownership stake in the project. It is a simple yet effective way of aligning your employees incentives with your own, and with the company’s. A robust, transparent planning process benefits everyone. SMART goals and Mission Statements are a way of achieving that. #engineering #projectmanagement

The phrase “begin with the end in mind” is quite relevant when it comes to goals and metrics definition. It is imperative the organization in question evaluate: (a) their motive for foraying into this initiative; (b) understand how it fits in the broader context of the audience they are serving or looking to serve; (c) validate there is an actual need for the product or service (or platform) being envisioned; (d) ascertain the resources are in place to make a go of it; (d) carefully craft what success looks like and what an achievable timeline is. Metrics, and their rationale, the normalized methodology for measuring them, and their benchmark (if one exists) are critical, but analysis-paralysis even at this early stage must be avoided.

I realize this is a generalized article, but the evaluation metrics of how a product succeeds depends on the department that is doing the evaluations. I dealt with service and repair. My questions were 1) Is the product doing the job as expected 2) Is the product staying in service and if not a: Is it a component failure b: Is it a mechanical issue c: Is there a software issue And in what cases are these problems seen and can I recreate it.

There should only be one metric for a product launch and that is adoption. Measuring the secondary activities of engagement or awareness is not a true measure of the new product itself but rather how it was introduced into the market. If your new product has been developed well and serves the needs of an audience willing to pay for it, then people will adopt it. Focus on serving your target audience not on the launch of the product and the success of the product is guaranteed.

What a strange question as surely there are several examples of personal purchase feedback collection mechanisms and to a certain extent it depends on the value of the service or item purchased. The more expensive items can have the seller organisation contact you directly by telephone lesser value items have freepost cards or questionares, then web site surveies and final just a customer support e-mail

Where to begin? Data diversity and representativeness, ensuring that the data collected for your analysis is not biased towards certain groups. also consider creating tools and visualizations that make data analysis and its results accessible to a broader audience. Creating user-friendly, interactive dashboards or reports that are easy for non-technical individuals to understand can improve transparency and allow for a more inclusive decision-making process. While competitive analysis is important, you might also want to consider social impact as a significant metric. Prioritizing the potential social effects of your decisions can lead to outcomes that are more meaningful and impactful in the long run.
