ITPEC FE Subject A October 2025 Question 52
ITPEC FE Subject A October 2025 — Question 52 of 60
Process innovation = improving how a product is made (manufacturing methods, procedures, efficiency), not what is made.
- •(b) Developing innovative manufacturing procedures that improve product quality → fits perfectly: new process, same product goal
Why not others:
- (a) Creating an innovative new product → this is product innovation, not process
- (c) Outsourcing manufacturing → this is a sourcing strategy, not innovation
- (d) Wide adoption establishing a de facto standard → this describes standardization dynamics, unrelated to process innovation
Key rule: Process innovation = how you make it. Product innovation = what you make.
