Purpose: The aim of the paper is to assess the choices made within the trade-offs specific for the commercialization of a biomedical product in the circumstances of a narrow window of opportunity. Design/methodology/Approach: The analysis of the literature on this subject revealed a research gap in the analysis of the trade-offs occurring during R&D works in the process of the development and commercialization of a biomedical product in the circumstances of a narrow window of opportunity for market introduction. For the sake of capturing the dynamic specificity of the innovation process and its comprehensive presentation, the authors decided to use the case study method. Findings: The results of the research suggest that focusing on one factor (time) is possible when mobilising the entire potential of the enterprise, but ultimately it does not have to translate into faster launch of serial production and taking advantage of the window of opportunity. Research shows that excessive simplifications in the area of innovation process management lead to the need to re-implement some stages of the R&D works. Practical Implications: Conclusions from the analysis of trade-offs can help managers in making key decisions within the innovative process under time pressure. Originality/Value: Despite the time pressure, it is advisable to follow the main principles of conducting the research process, in particular, defining milestones in advance, exercising critical approach to formulating assumptions, taking care of good communication between R&D discipline teams, making at least a preliminary trade-off calculation.

Resumo: Atualmente as tecnologias de informação sustentam operações empresariais, unem elos distantes de cadeias de fornecimento e ainda, empresas a clientes. Neste artigo analisamos as motivações que levam uma empresa a promover outsourcing de atividades, ligadas aos seus processos de engenharia, tendo como foco principal o desenvolvimento de novos produtos, sem descurar os riscos associados ao outsourcing. O Business Process Outsourcing é uma decisão estratégica, que apresenta resultados a médio/longo prazo. O trabalho empírico de suporte a este artigo intitula-se "Outsourcing nas atividades de desenvolvimento de novos produtos, o caso da Volkswagen do Brasil", elaborado por Pereira, Scur & Mello. O estudo é qualitativo, pois foi realizado por amostragem, através de entrevistas presenciais, gravadas com autorização dos entrevistados. Este estudo contribui para o desenvolvimento da atividade empresarial. Identifica as razões pelas quais uma empresa do setor automóvel subcontrata "fornecedores" para realizar as suas atividades e desenvolver novos produtos.Conclui-se que a opção pelo outsourcing está relacionada com a falta de um determinado recurso ou capacidade para realizar a 142 atividade. Foram apontados como riscos do outsourcing, a fuga de conhecimento, a perda de capacidade crítica e consequentemente, a dependência em relação ao fornecedor e ainda, a capacidade da empresa em adquirir novas tecnologias.Palavras-chave: Outsourcing, Inovação, Volkswagen. Abstract: Today, information technology supports business operations, supply chain and business improvements for customers.This article analyzes the motivation that should be directed to the company to outsource activities, related to its engineering processes, concerned with the development of new products, taking into account the risks associated with outsourcing. Business Process Outsourcing is a strategic decision that presents results in the medium / long term. The empirical work that supports this work is titled "Outsourcing in the activities of development of new products, the case of Volkswagen do Brasil", elaborated by Pereira, Scur & Mello. This study is qualitative and was performed by sampling, through face-to-face interviews, recorded with the consent of the interviewees. Its main objective was to contribute to the development of business activity. The study identifies the reasons why an automotive company subcontracts "suppliers" to carry out its activities and develop new products.The conclusion of outsourcing is related to the lack of a resource for the ability to carry out an activity. They pointed out as risks of outsourcing, the leakage of knowledge, the loss of critical capacity and, consequently, the dependence on the supplier and finally the company's ability to acquire new technologies.

“…Organizations need to first identify the content of the innovation in order to determine what innovation they have and do not have. An innovation is about an organization's internal applications, organizational structure and functioning of the organization, the development of a new or significantly improved product or service on external relations, a process, a new marketing method or a new organizational method (OCDE, 2005;Acosta, Acosta, & Espinoza, 2016). Adner and Levinthal (2001) stated that the purpose of product innovation is attracting new customers and that organizations change new products or existing products according to customer needs and introduce these products to the market.…”
