Abstract

Future research into forecasting and its relationship with new product planning will benefit from a more thorough analysis of the decision‐making processes involved at the micro‐level. Decisions to develop and introduce new products are predicted upon a corporate decision maker's judgement as to future buyer needs, competitive behaviour, technological change and the competitive abilities of the firm.
