Buffalo Filter products were proven to hold toxic smokes, live cellular materials and viruses, this plume also caused respiratory and eye irritation or nausea in healthcare professionals and may create visual problems for the surgeon. As a result, the customers applied a lot of pressure demanding the new products so as to combat the toxic smoke. Ideally, the engineering team of the company was too slow, mismanaged and poor to realize the need of new product development within the company that therefore, became a challenge and a problem facing the company.

In order to advance the product development hastening issue, the corporation had to practice a new method and cultural basis from which they would move to the subsequent level in sales development, while upholding organizational effectiveness. The following phase involved in the project utilized ValueStream Mapping approach to create acomprehensiveexamination of the engineering group'sproduct development accomplishments. Using a base-line plan of the recent new product procedure,Insyte consultants steered the companythruimprovement of a rationalizedprocess that eradicated many non-value doings, accommodated the necessity for infrequent ‘quick fix' projects, and distinguished majorproject limits from minor ones.Buffalo Filter still uses strategic scheduling as well as the product road mapping practiceto direct its future. The company still continues toincrementally recover its engineering development procedure as the team and variousprojects grows.

The issue about product development resulted to a number of things. Buffalo Filter used the complete approachof involving company plan, a new inventionroad map, and procedure changes which implied theroot bases of delays in innovative products wereaddressed. The newly-organized course forassessing and prioritizing the newest projectsmade sure that only the uppermost potential projects wereacceptable time from the corporation'slimited resources. The calculated plan andproduce road map made sure that projects werecollaborated in building Buffalo Filter's management position in their goal market.
