New Product Development Organizations 
Enhancing innovation ability is seen by many corporations today as the most important lever to increase profitability and growth. Project and portfolio management (PPM) solutions contribute to innovation by simultaneously improving both the selection and execution of new product development initiatives.
New product development (NPD) organizations are increasingly looking to PPM solutions like CA Clarity to:
- Improve alignment of business and innovation strategy

- How do you measure your new product development efficiency and what are you doing to improve?
- Have you experienced significant cost overruns on your new product development projects?
