Standardization and Innovation Password of Shenzhen Product Design Process
NINEIDEA: As the “City of Design” and the global hardware manufacturing center, Shenzhen’s product design process integrates the full chain advantages of user insight, technological innovation, supply chain collaboration and commercial implementation. The following article will systematically break down the core process, methodology, and regional characteristics of product design in Shenzhen, and demonstrate its underlying logic of efficient iteration through benchmark cases:
1、 Process Overview: The Core Logic of Shenzhen Design
The core formula for product design in Shenzhen is “user value x business efficiency”, forming a closed-loop process of “insight design verification implementation iteration”. Different from traditional design patterns, its prominent advantages lie in:
Localized supply chain response (with an average sampling cycle 30% shorter than the industry)
Interdisciplinary collaborative design (industrial design+engineering technology+market operation)
Standardization system supported by policies (supporting local standard GB/T 33635-2017)
Data driven rapid iteration mechanism
2、 Detailed explanation of the six core process stages
(1) Requirement insight: The starting point of popular products is the real pain point
Core objective: To identify unmet needs from user scenarios and clarify product positioning
Shenzhen characteristic methodology:
Immersive scene research: For example, DESIGNDO captures potential needs by simulating home/office/outdoor scenes
User co creation mode: Type-C interface design of Nubia white charger, based on feedback from over 1200 users
Three dimensional verification system: market data (competitor analysis)+user feedback (questionnaire/interview)+technical feasibility (engineer pre review)
Output: User Profile Report, Requirement Priority Matrix, Technical Feasibility Assessment Form
(2) Scheme Design: Balancing Technology and Aesthetics
Core objective: Transform requirements into actionable design solutions that balance innovation and mass production
Key action:
Interdisciplinary integration: UAV design integrates electronic engineering (chip selection), mechanical structure (fuselage stability), and industrial design (aerodynamic appearance)
Modular architecture: The Aohai charging and discharging integrated gun adopts a gun box integrated structure, with replaceable components to reduce maintenance costs by 30%
Visual language definition: Combining brand tone and user preferences to output mood boards and color/material specifications
(3) Prototype validation: using iterations to reduce trial and error costs
Core objective: Verify design feasibility and user experience through rapid prototyping testing
Shenzhen Efficiency Password:
Agile development cycle: Adopting a “design test iteration” short cycle mode, DJI unmanned aerial vehicles optimize their body curves through 12 rounds of wind tunnel experiments
Digital twin technology: Virtual simulation testing replaces some physical prototypes, reducing development cycle by 40%
Multi dimensional review: internal cross departmental review (design+engineering+supply chain)+user testing (small-scale seed users)
Output: High fidelity prototype, test report, design modification checklist
(4) Supply chain implementation: closed-loop from drawings to products
Core advantage: Shenzhen has the most complete electronic hardware industry chain in the country, with an average distance of no more than 50 kilometers between design companies, mold factories, and material suppliers
Key action:
Localized collaboration: NINEIDEA design achieves 72 hour rapid customization of purple metal paint surface through local supply chain in the hair dryer project
Cost optimization: Standardized component procurement (such as Type-C interface universalization)+modular production, reducing Nubia charger costs by 25%
Mass production guarantee: pre production process review (DFM manufacturability design)+small batch trial production (50-100 pieces), and the mass production conversion rate of NINEIDEA design reached 92%
(5) Market Conversion: Empowering Business Value with Design
Core logic: Make design a carrier of brand communication, accurately reaching target users
Methodology:
Storytelling design: Children’s electric motorcycles retain the classic fuel tank shape, awakening brand sentiment
Accurate channel matching: Environmental protection products focus on social media (spreading environmental protection concepts), and innovative hardware prioritizes crowdfunding platforms (verifying the market)
Selling point extraction: Directly targeting core needs, such as “portable fast charging”, “silent design” and other concrete expressions
(6) Continuous iteration: long-term operation of popular products
Core objective: Based on market feedback, continuously optimize and build a product ecosystem
Key action:
Data driven optimization: Analyze sales data (such as Amazon review keywords) and user behavior data, iterate functionality
Intellectual Property Layout: Applying for appearance/structural patents, a company has provided design services to companies such as Huawei and Lenovo, obtaining over 3000 patents
Ecological Extension: ARtop Design expands from single product design to industry chain integration services through the “D+Ecological System”
3、 The core competitiveness of product design in Shenzhen
Industry chain advantage: From design, mold making, component procurement to mass production, forming a 48 hour response circle
Policy support: The government promotes the construction of the “City of Design” and local standards regulate processes (such as Shenzhen Local Standard DB4403/T 209-2021)
Innovation Ecology: International Perspective Adjacent to Hong Kong+Local Manufacturing Foundation, Generating Cross disciplinary Integration Design
Talent aggregation: Gathering over 70% of industrial design talents from across the country, interdisciplinary team configuration has become the norm
Conclusion
The essence of the product design process in Shenzhen is the systematic ability to quickly implement creativity and accurately convey value. Its core competitiveness lies not only in the design itself, but also in the full chain integration ability that deeply binds user needs, technological innovation, supply chain efficiency, and commercial value. Against the backdrop of “Made in China 2025”, Shenzhen Design is upgrading from “explosive product creation” to “ecological construction”, becoming the core engine of global hardware innovation.
