Feasibility
Definition of requirements in case of gap.
In depth-technology investigation.
How complex is the technology to produce?
Low complex, high OEM cost à Add piezo to our motor development competence? (could be a high margin opportunity for Frencken)
High complex, low OEM cost à Buy off the shelf?
In between?
Business decision investigation
Buy OEM products and integrate
Partner up with specialist
Something else.

Thorough technology and market overview
Most potential system concept taken all requirements and boundary conditions into account.
In-depth understanding of technology and production methods
Consolidated business decision / recognition of high-margin opportunities for Frencken.
Test plan concept / plan for next phase (next student).
