By The End Of Part1 Today, You Should:
• Be able to use the SET factor model to identify and
understand opportunities created by Product
Opportunity Gaps (POGs)
• Be able to articulate a Product Opportunity Gap with aconcise statement that identifies who the target
market/consumer is and what the gap is between
consumers’ needs and offerings on the market, without
specifying how you plan to fill that gap

Phase 1: Identify The Opportunity
• Goals: – Identify and evaluate a set of promising Product Opportunity Gap (POG’s) – Choose the most appropriate POG to move forward with
• Primary results: – Product opportunity statement (hypothesis) – Initial scenario that illustrates the opportunity
• Methods – Brainstorming, observing, researching Social, Economic, and Technology(SET) factors
– Generating POGs based on SET factors – Evaluating and filtering POG ideas generated – Scenario generation, feedback, and refinement

Phase 2: Understand The Opportunity
• Goals: – Much deeper understanding of customer and customer’s Value
Opportunities (VO’s), translated into product criteria
• Results: – In-depth understanding of the customer/user, captured through refined
customer scenarios and VOA’s – List of product characteristics and constraints
• Methods – Primary research: observe, interview, listen, task analysis, stakeholder
analysis – Secondary research: human factors, lifestyle reference, dive deeper on
SET factor changes

Social, Economic, and Technology (SET) Factors
• Identifying and observing broad Social and Economic
changes in a society can help you discover gaps that current products and services are not meeting.
• Likewise, Technological advances can create opportunitiesto create products and services that would have been
previously technically impossible – Technological advances often also create new (and different)
problems for people or societies, which can also be fertile groundfor product opportunities
In general, you are looking for broad, enduring changes touse as a basis for new product opportunities

Social
• Family and work patterns (for example, the number of single
parents with two jobs or the number of double-incomehouseholds with flexible hours)
• Health issues (people living longer with more active lives)
• Use of computers and the Internet
• Sports and recreation / Sporting events
• The entertainment industries, including film and television
• Vacation environments (for example, the fantasy fulfillment
provided by Disney World, Las Vegas, and Club Med)
• Books (for example, Oprah’s Book Club)
• Magazines
• Music (from hip-hop to new classic-chic)
• Environments at work (that raise quality of workplace standards)

Economic
• For example, the economic boom in the 1990s created
multimillionaires overnight through IPOs, stock
options, and individual investment in the stock market.
• Excess disposable cash resulted in a void in material
goods that these young, geeky, intelligent, sociallyresponsible, technology oriented — and rich — new
group of consumers sought.
• Lifestyle-oriented products that filled this void include:
• recreational SUVs, clothing, tech products, PDAs that
connect through the Web for constant stock price
monitoring, and the proliferation of coffeehouses.

Economic (2)
• The eventual great recession of the twenty-first century
• People’s attitudes about spending shifted.
• Smaller cars, including a new class of electric-based,
have replaced SUVs.
• Smart Online Shopping: Smart-phones and tablets haveevolved to keep people connected 24/7, especially
through social media channels and from their home,
where smart shoppers can look for good bargains
without leaving their living room.

Examples
The post – World War II:
• The economic boom,
• Cheap gasoline,
• the creation of the suburban lifestyle, and the look of
jets and rockets
• were the SET Factors that created the opportunity:
• for large eight-cylinder cars with sizable tail fins that
dominated the auto industry during the 1950s.• Harley Earl, head of styling and color for GM, saw the
opportunity and introduced fins on the rear of cars,
starting with the low-end Chevy all the way up to
Cadillac.

SET Factor Exercise
• Divide into three groups (one S, one E, one T)
• Work as a group to come up with a list of at least 10
broad forces / changes / trends in the GCC and/or the
full Arab League nations for your assigned topic(S, E, or T)
• Write them down and be prepared to present them for
discussion.

SET Factor Discussion
• Do you see some common themes emerging?
• Which of these SET factors are mostly the same
throughout the GCC nations? Throughout the Arab
League nations?
• Which of these SET factors vary considerably
throughout the GCC nations? Throughout the ArabLeague nations?

Product Opportunity Gaps (POG’s)
• The next step is to identify Product Opportunity Gaps,
or POGs based on your SET factor analysis.
• A Product Opportunity Gap is the gap between what is
currently on the market and the possibility for new, orsignificantly improved, products that result from
emerging trends.

Examples of Product Opportunity Gaps
• A vegetable peeler that is easily used by people suffering from
arthritis in their hands
• A light source that can be pointed and held focused on a specific point in cramped or difficult locations without requiring the useof the person’s hands to hold it
• A financial instrument that allows young people to move out oftheir families homes to live on their own before they are married
• Training tools and materials that help working adults without
deep technical expertise develop skills with fast-changinginformation technologies

• Form groups of 3-4 people
• Pick one of the following industries: – Fashion, personal transportation (on land), personal transportation (air)
restaurants, international shipping, real estate, financial services, education,medical, entertainment, Media, hotels, home appliances, army, childcare.
• Based on the SET factors identified, where should the leadingcompanies in that industry be looking for gaps to fill with innovativenew products or services? – Are they doing so currently?
– If not, why not?
• Come up with a list of at least 5 POGs for this industry that yourgroup thinks that companies in this industry should be exploring
• Be prepared to share the top 2 POGs with the class

Jobs To Be Done Analysis
“People don’t buy quarter -inch drills, they buy quarter-
inch holes. The drill just happens to be the best means
available to get that job done.” • Ted Leavitt of Harvard Business School [SSD09] p 10.

Different Types of Jobs To Be Done:
• Functional jobs describe the task that the customers
want to achieve
• Emotional jobs relate to feelings and perceptions
– Personal jobs relate to how customers want to feel about
themselves – Social jobs relate to how customers want to be perceived by
others
• Ancillary jobs are other jobs that customers want to getdone before, during, or after they get their main jobdone

Value Quotient
• Key Idea: start from ‘perfect’ and work backwards
• To improve Value Quotient look for places to improve
desired outcomes or reduce undesired outcomes
Value _ Quotient Desired _ Outcomes
Undesired _ Outcomes

Value Quotient Analysis Steps
1. Identify the Job To Be Done
2. Identify the desired and undesired outcomes
3. Plot the ideal innovation
4. Plot existing solutions
5. Identify opportunity value gaps
6. Close the value gaps

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/engg950-autumn2014-lectures-week-3 39/42
Step 5: Identify Opportunity Value Gaps
• Where to look for value gaps:
– Dimensions with high customer importance and low customer
satisfaction
– Dimensions that customers report as not very important and
they are satisfied
• This may present an opportunity to ‘lower the bar’ to produce a
cheaper, simpler, alternative for the low end of the market
– Dimensions for which there is currently no good solution
