Aer a few years, you are competent enough to handle related operation, maintenance, purchasing, and procurement of engineering work. You can handle related job utilizing man, machine, material and method with good ethic and abide the required engineering law. Then your boss gives you and your learn a task to develop a new product development to counter a mature market which was held by giant bicycle manufacturer namely Shimano. Giant, Raleigr etc. The product is a foldable bike. Although the technology is rapidly changing, there is an opportunity to tap the potential market by utilizing low/ middle cost manufacturing and specication. Furlhennore, the manufacturing sector in Malaysia are quite competitive now due to relatively low Ringgit Malaysia currency to Dollar US. The Foreign manufacturer has to sell product at a higher price compared Io locally developed product due to foreign exchange factor. Marketing department already did the market survey and concluded the biggest potential market lies on medium specication / cost bike with foldable capability. Market analysis also shows the chassis must be build based on aluminium frame because steel is heavier and titanium is costlier. Public tend to foldable and lighter bike frame due to transportation factor. The selected competitor specication, price and series is as: project oktoberf X C Search Textbook Solutions | Cheg x Ask a Question project oktoberg.pdf - FACUL X + X O C A kalam.ump.edu.my/pluginfile.php/383284/mod_resource/content/1/project%20oktoberg.pdf Q Apps M Gmail YouTube Translate project oktoberf 3/6 Bike model - medium Specification Review range / specification/ cost 26 inch Folding Bike 21 Speed Foldable Bicycle High Carbon Steel MTB Cycling Bike Mountain Bike Foldable Bicycle Basikal Berlipat 40 China OEM RM459.00 RM799.00 -43% Quantity Only 11 hems left Sport SwimAno BEGASSO Begasso Sport FOLDING Bike tri blade bicycle der & Lock 26inch mountain folding bicycle 1 Ratings RM545.00 RM1,050-00 -48% Installment Up to 6 months, as low as RM90.83 per month.

Bamboo series will be constructed by 60% aluminium alloy material which is expected to have straight fight with China OEM manufacturer but by utilizing localization factor, the price can be reducing significantly. Their dimension and size specification is almost similar. Kotobang series is expected to be selling at RM600 price tag. This series has 80% aluminium material chassis construction which is as par as medium branding bike in the market.
