Opinions expressed by entrepreneurs’ colleagues are their very own.
Here I look at the innovation through the lens to improve the process. The value of most organizations is defined by their mental capital, not physical assets. The mental capital of your organization might be traced using process maps that enable business operations.
Process innovation is impossible to achieve, unless you already have clear process maps. Without process maps consisting of ZZ mountains of specific procedures, it is not possible to discuss measurement and improve business operations.
Maturity in business practices is achieved during motion in accordance with previously specific process maps. For example, you’ll be able to improve your human resource practices only if you follow previously specific processes of employing and stopping employees. Similarly, you’ll be able to improve customer support, marketing, product development or other practices, depending on the business context, only when you have clear process maps.
Effective business practice is one that meets the requirements of all interested parties, including staff, shareholders, suppliers and regulatory bodies. Innovation means meeting the requirements of business operations through effective process maps consisting of efficient procedures.
Implementation of the innovation management system
The implementation of ISO 56001 provides the organization of a structure that allows constant innovation through iterative re -assembly of business processes in a given field of practice.
ISO 56001 is a standard of necessities for the implementation of the innovation management system based on the best global practices. It enables entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs to respond to changes on their market in a timely manner and maintain sustainable development.
First of all, you wish to change the way of considering, because innovation does not mean creating a completely recent concept from scratch or developing something that individuals have never heard of before. Innovation consists in transforming existing products into a unique solution to solve the problem in the real world.
Being an modern business or entrepreneur is a necessity in modern economies. Innovation is now not an additional function to distinguish between corporations – this is a must. There is no business without innovation. As an entrepreneur, you have to structure a business undertaking, integrating the principles supporting innovations with management rules and practices.
Innovation support rules increase the continuous improvement of business operations, which is currently obligatory for survival. When I say continuous improvement, I mean that innovations are not something unusual or unattainable – even small changes in business practices that lead to greater efficiency and effectiveness qualify as innovation.
The highest principle of supporting innovation is a systematic approach in a business undertaking, from concept to exit. A scientific approach means conducting operations using coherent, compatible and mountain of specific process maps.
The implementation of the innovation management system, ISO 56001, is the first step in striving for a systematic approach. The implementation of the innovation management system adds a structure to your company, creating a structured business undertaking that systematically works on continuous improvement.
The boundaries of the innovation management system are in the field of practice (e.g. human resources). From a systematic perspective, the apprenticeship domain consists of processes enabling practice. Previous processes are those who mapping procedures enabling the process. These procedures are associated with various forms of entities, including internal human resources, machine services and suppliers.
Because the innovation management system works based on the PDCA cycle (Plan-Do-Check-Aact), when it is integrated with a business project, business practices will likely be organized to ensure consistency in the PDCA cycle. This PDCA approach is enabling the principle of continuous improvement and will eventually enable innovation in business operations.
Risk management
The innovation management system is based on the risk of continuous monitoring of business practices with the requirements of people that are interested in your company.
Risk management in the context of the innovation management system includes ensuring compliance of each procedure and the whole process with the requirements of relevant business operations. The way in which increased each procedure can lead to a more efficient performance of the appropriate process, which causes a simpler meeting of the requirement, is a risk control based on innovation.
The system enables effective risk management by using modern process mapping for business practices, helping to maintain a competitive advantage.
Systematic approach to innovation processing
The innovation management system, in the context of improving the process, enables iteratively strives for innovation through a systematic approach, from identifying the possibilities of improvements to the implementation of solutions in the type of improved process maps.
It is possible to discover possibilities when you exactly understand the requirements that your business operations must meet inside the boundaries of targeted business practice. The procedures of current processes needs to be traced to all internal, external and regulatory requirements that needs to be met.
Gaps needs to be identified by ensuring the accuracy of each procedure. By cascading the requirements and their appropriate process maps, you’ll be able to discover alternative procedures and flows that may improve the process map.
The next step in this iteration is the validation of the concept in which you assess the resulting map of the process from the first stage of compliance with the maps of other processes confirming the appropriate practice to discover any non -compliance.
The verified map of the process needs to be developed as a recent component to be integrated with the appropriate field of practice. At this stage, all input and outputs, in addition to the required interfaces for other processes, should be identified and related to the process map.
The last step is the implementation in which you integrate a recent map of the process with the domain of practice and optimize practice, ensuring that the improved process works with other processes.
As a part of the implementation of the Innovation Management System, you have to develop an innovation portfolio, which in our context refers to modern process maps. This portfolio will function a repository of process maps. These maps are intangible resources, and standard valuation methods and monetization of such assets. In addition, modern processes might be patented.
