The government product life cycle refers to the entire lifespan of a product, from the time it is conceived until the moment it is retired from the marketplace or replaced. This process encompasses all stages, from the initial development and launch to the eventual decline in sales.
Similar to the predictable stages of human life — birth, childhood, adolescence, maturity, and end of life — products and services also go through analogous phases. To optimise results at each stage, product owners and managers adapt their strategies accordingly. The strategies employed may vary throughout the product’s life cycle.
