Profitable variants: TD1, TD3, TD4, TD5, TD7, TD8, TD11
Selected Variant: TD1 & TD8
GERMANY
TD1 TD 8Popular Profitable
Bun Warmer: important feature for the German market, because it makes the toaster useful for any kind of bread
Brushed Stainless steel: High quality design
Cancel Control: Secure for our customers and easy to handle. Eliminated every variant without this feature.
Short Slot: Prefer long slot as more versatility, but less profitable.
Price: 23 Euro in the price range No Bun Warmer: Unfavorable, but cheaper.
Plastic: Cheaper material cost & easier to clean and move as lighter than steel. Product adjustable (color match kitchen).
Cancel Control

Dog: TD3, eventually TD1 and TD8Cash Cow: N/A
GERMANY
LONG TERM: TD5 & TD11- Market growth >5% and relative market share >40%. - Invest in STAR for CASH COW
Selected Variants: TD1 & TD8 are between POOR DOGS AND ?, some risk.
TD4: “Star of Stars” but not meet customer requirements.
Note: The data for the variant TD 11 was missing, so we had so estimated its potential market share and its market growth. - Most profitable (market profit of 24,402 euros)- Long Slot and flexible design capabilities with plastic- No bun warmer + no cancel control

LONG TERM: TU5SHORT TERM: TU3 &TU8
Note: TU12 (CASH COW) is not offered as a profitable variant especially during the short run as may not have much market growth.
STARS (TU3 & TU5) should have R+D investment. TU5 is biggest star with highest forecast value (9%) and market share (73%).
TU8 is leading profit generator. Close to line between ? and STAR with adequate 7% growth but slightly insufficient market shares (38%). However, highly valued by American consumer.

R+D Network
Between US and Germany, we will place resources in Germany for lower costs and similar high performance. Germans speak more languages, which is helpful in communication with research units in Israel and USA. Advantage of one time zone. R+D NETWORK: According to the “Relational based view” by Dyer and Singh CLEANDEVTECH able to develop network with other enterprises, as many kitchen supply producers (Siemens, Severin, etc) are based in Germany which will provide more SYNERGY!
SYNERGY- EFFECT
Rise in productivity from better communication with same language and time zone

Cost Overview
Sunday, May 19, 13
IsolationMany customers where complaining about the temperature of the toaster while working. A hot external surface is a safety risk and a proper isolation would prevent that.
Mobile Phone AppMany features + novelty of mobile experience from smart phone (i.e. remote control, when toast is ready, visual feed of toast). Smaller scale app idea for a toasting guide (bread types and toasting level, etc).
Window/see-through cover
Warming functionKeep the toast warm after it is finished but NO MORE TOASTING. This eliminates the problem of setting the toaster, letting it run, and forgetting about it, only to return to cold toast. This would also let you eat your first piece of toast while the second stays warm.
Folded toasterThe toaster could be made more compact for simple movement and storage when not in use.
INNOVATION PROPOSALS
D12; first successful electrical toaster

INNOVATION PROPOSALS
Toast removal system Implement a basic system to get the toast out of the toaster and on the plate in a way without burning you fingers or needing to reach in dangerously with a form.
Changing colors while workingAesthetic and practical appeal as toaster is normally stored on counter at all times. Colorful lights would be attractive for younger customers and distinguish our particular model.
8 slice toaster America's number one complaint was the lack of toaster capacity and efficiency.
Slot Control A toaster with several slots which can be controlled independently
Crumb slotEasy to clean crumbs by base slot that is removable.
