How a New Product Introduction travels bottom-up: an idea starts on the floor — a
customer request at the counter, a baker’s experiment in the Bakehouse — is pitched
up to Bakery Strategy as a range bet (the strategy board only takes bets that change
the product range or footprint), and the decided product comes back down through
Bakery Operations for rollout and into the Bakehouse for trial bakes. The Bakehouse
bakes, but “the product stands in the daily range” is tracked where the flight item lives,
on the FL2 board’s New Product Introduction lane. Trial results come back through the
Trial Bake Tasting, and the Daily Range Cap guards what may enter the range at
all. The mirror image of the New Shop Launch Route: FL1 → FL3 → FL2 → FL1.
