Abstract: Developing a new product involves risk. Several writers on the subject of product development have suggested various approaches for determining and managing risk.

This paper seeks to rectify this situation by presenting the results of a research project that investigated how a number of UK manufacturing companies measure and manage risk during the New Product Development (NPD) process.
