Connecting ideas management to the development process
In order to create more innovative products and services, organizations put innovation and ideas management strategies in place. However they often find that their efforts fail and find themselves left with unanswered questions. One of the reasons for this may be the lack of integration and “connectedness” between crucial business processes.
Some questions to consider:
- Does your organization have a system in place to capture and respond to feedback from ALL channels (social web, email, phone, customer service, corporate portals, etc.)
- How is feedback managed, and tied to the overall development process?
These questions may help to identify major gaps and deficiencies in your overall product and service innovation strategy. The solution is to incorporate the right set of tools that provide visibility and traceability during teh early ideation process, connects all workflow related activities and pushes out the right information right through to the final stages of production.
