With the development of economy,science and technology,the traditional power system has been unable to meet the higher requirements of the reliability and stability for power supply.The development of power distribution automation has become a common choice for many countries.However,the traditional switchgear can't meet the new demands to intellectualization such as smart grid technology operation automation,factory automation,process control automation and intelligent building system,therefore the research and development of smart switchgear has become a new trend.Previously switchgear research and development projects are usually dominated by R&D department;coordination between cross function team is difficult.Risk management is only focused on technical factors,failure to fully consider the market factors,project management factors,cost risk factors.So problems such as project delay,large development investment,high cost of the new product and the functional parameters failed to meet the customers' real needs are caused.The results are that the non-competitive products can't achieve the expected market share and then affect the company's benefit and strategy.In this paper,the risk management of smart switchgear development project is studied by the theory of project risk management.Project risk is identified through brainstorming and Delphi based on the product development process.Project risk is qualitatively analyzed through AHP(analytic hierarchy process)method from the six aspects of market,technology,management,cost,production,and environment.Then it also makes a quantitative analysis of the market,technology,management,cost and production.Finally,according to the analysis results,the control strategy of the potential risk factors is studied,and the concrete control measures are put forward.This study provides an effective risk management method for the new product development in X company,and it also has reference value for related company. |
