The ability to compress time and enhance process quality are key determinants of effective New Product Development (NPD) and equallyDisaster Risk Reduction (DRR) management. This paper explores the qualitative relevence of an Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) derivedunified conceptual model of correlation coefficients between NPD subfactors of success and performance measures drawn from dominantclassical NPD models. The paper shows the application of the conceptual model to compare base isolation with damper technologies that are amongst the most advanced earthquake risk reduction strategies. The study finds that there are significant benefits for successful knowledge transfer between NPD and civil engineering and earthquake resilience engineering sectors, and there are many potential academic and professional benefits from doing so.
