However, full scale ERP software are still too costly for small and medium enterprises. Company X wanted to build the disruptive integrated Business Process Management software that could be accepted by wide range of business. Putting great efforts on product development prior to launching, the founders had not probed the problems from the customer’s point of view. This research approached the Company’s problem with customer learning and discovery from Customer Development Model. The approach includes testing the hypotheses of the customer – problem – solution fit, and product – market fit by interviewing several businesses, with the Javelin Validation Board (Lean Startup Machine) was used to help the iteration of validation process.
