Abstract:
A product planning development and program management information system and method is disclosed. This system is accessible by a plurality of users. The system includes a communications network with a server computer in communication with the communications network and a client computer in communication with the communications network. A first program runs on the server computer. The first program is configured to provide access to a product planning environment through the client computer. The product planning environment has fields for entry of a target price and has fields for displaying a calculated price. The calculated price is based on selections of product characteristics and part selections being made by a user of the first program. The first program provides a display of the product as configured by the user. Further, a second program is in communication with the first program.
