The Innovation Process
How do we begin? Let’s think about what problems we could solve together. What are pain points you or your colleagues have experienced? What about the pain points of our customers, volunteers, vendors, and donors? Is there something that you’ve identified as troublesome in your day-to-day work or something that you think is worth solving at the national level? Let’s get these thoughts documented as part of (Section 03). We will then be hosting workshops where we can brainstorm ways we could address those pain points. Ideas can be also What happens after the workshops? The initial concepts will be sorted into opportunity areas and then evaluated by the Supply Chain SLT using three key factors:
DESIRABILITY (Human factor): Does the idea help address a significant pain point? Does the target user want this? VIABILITY (Business factor): Is this idea sustainable? What has to be true for this to work? What is the business case? FEASIBILITY (Technical factor): Will the idea work? Is it functionally possible in the foreseeable future?
The end outcome would be a prioritized, short list of concepts that we could pursue.
