Sentence 85

Before
But these are innovations—new products for which the design, costs, development plans, positioning and every other aspect has to be built from scratch—and therefore, having control over timelines, quality, and profit is challenging.

After
But these are innovations—new products for which the design, costs, development plans, positioning and every other aspect has to be built from scratch. Control over timelines, quality and profit is vital. 

Notes
I split it into two sentences since the 'before' version was too unwieldy.

Try to phrase a sentence positively. 'Control over timelines, quality and profit is vital.' is a positive sentence.
