This study focuses on actual commercial success in the NPD process which is impacted by product-centered knowledge and strategic organizational orientation. The study was conducted through positivism philosophy, employed a deductive approach, explanatory research design, and a quantitative methodology.

Impact of knowledge type, strategic orientations and organizational learning on new product launch success
description This study is aimed at observing the impact of knowledge type, strategic orientation, organizational learning, and knowledge management system on new product launch success by drawing on Resource-based Theory, Knowledge-based View, and Double-loop Learning Theory. The study integrates the two concepts of knowledge type (knowledge complexity and knowledge tacitness) and three strategic orientations (market orientation, product orientation and relationship orientation) in a cohesive framework which defines a realistic view of new product launch success. It provides a road map in pursuing to test both concepts with mediating (organizational learning) and moderating (knowledge management system) factors as they are crucial for new product launch success. Past research has mainly focused on new product development but rarely see it through all the way to actual commercial success in the launch stage of a product. This study focuses on actual commercial success in the NPD process which is impacted by product-centered knowledge and strategic organizational orientation. The study was conducted through positivism philosophy, employed a deductive approach, explanatory research design, and a quantitative methodology.
