****Make sure the plan accounts for contingencies/risks in the implementation process with the lean start up method***
-Use graphics such as organizational charts, process maps, and/or budget tables as appropriate to increase the readability and professional appeal of the plan.
-For the time frame & budget an estimated time line (Goal) or outlined budget process could be made
-Include in-text citations from at least six secondary sources.
-Each person on the team must contribute an article from the research that was completed on product development or management processes, methodologies, and/or models.
(This is what our team started. I need to add to the lean method of Making sure the plan accounts for contingencies/risks in the implementation process with the lean start up method with the use of recycled bottles and cans for the purchase of fuel….
Our CLC group has selected the innovative idea to outfit gas stations with an automated machine that will give state and local tax credit for commonly recycled items such as plastic bottles, cans, and glass bottles. This tax credit in turn will be transferred to a reloadable card with credits for purchase of gasoline or diesel fuels at participating gas stations.
The Lean Startup Method
We evaluated the Lean Startup method for the recycling gas credit program. The utilization of the Lean Startup method is primarily evident for this project plan because as described in an article from 33 voices they indicate the method chooses the tasks the organization with identifying the variable within the project that needs to be accomplished for the project to be a success.
The project launch will be coordinated in a smaller scale in a more localized area with the most potential for growth, use, and success. The smaller scale coincides with the Lean Startup method or LSM in deriving the true usage rate for a smaller customer base and either confirming or debunking the initial idea that the customer desires to trade in a product which has little value to them in turn for a credit to purchase a highly necessary commodity.
The LSM allows for variances in several different areas for different customer bases throughout the state. The variances will be based upon user preferences, feedback via verbal, online, and written correspondence from the consumer using the machines and tax credit systems. The feedback from the consumer will be used to identify potential problems and correct them at the current location and provide a future action plan for new stations.
As Euchner&Ries (2013) describes the initial model of the products as "the minimum viable product—we call it the MVP—will look very much like a design prototype" (p. 13). The MVP is utilized to best evaluate the foundation of the business model and whether this model will work or not, Euchner&Ries (2013). He goes on to write about how in using the LSM the company will have the ability to revise the business model and that nothing is written in stone, everything in the model has the ability to be tweaked or changed including the machine itself.
Another question that must be answered and is posed by Euchner&Ries(2013), is who is our customer, what's their use for the program, and how does this benefit them? In looking at the tax credit gas program we are utilizing a machine island at a local gas station. The gas stations are in and of themselves competitive sometimes with two or more stations on a corner jockeying for customers. The first question is 'who is our customer?' is on two different and coexisting levels.
Our first customer is the larger scale of the single consumer of the local area which could range from several under to several thousand. this is the individual person or family which will be tuning in the recyclable items for a credit (minus minimal fees) to purchase gas.
The second customer is the vary gas station where the machine will be placed. The drive behind the gas station purchasing and funding the recycling machine is twofold. The gas station is using the recycling machine as an advertisement for going green and at the same time using the credit portion of the recycling as a cost savings to the consumer. The idea is that consumers are willing and ready to recycle and they desire to save money on gas at the same time
