The idea screening process involves comparing and contrasting potential new products in order to determine which of the ideas are a perfect fit for the business giving its current resources, strengths , opportunities ,threats or limitations of the business.

At this stage of product development,the over-aching aim is to pick the products could be best invested that yield positive in a short while rather picking all available options that might drain the resources available and not yield commensurate returns.

Answer:

Idea screening

Explanation:

The seven stages involved in the new product development process are:

Idea generation
Idea screening: once a whole bunch of ideas are generated during the brainstorming process (idea screening), it is time to funnel them and only work on the most likely to succeed or the ones that have the greatest potential. In this case, the workgroup probably came up with dozens of uncommon ice cream flavors and most were probably a potential disaster. So they consulted with chefs in order to define which flavors had the potential to become real ice cream flavors.
Concept development and testing
Market strategy development
Business analysis
Product development
Test marketing
Commercialization
