Learnings from cross-industry analysis to improve your innovative strength
Comparing your innovation profile and metrics with non-competing industries is another source of inspiration. Applying business model innovation, adopting new service schemes or supply chain structures is often more plausible after analysing a successful transformation elsewhere.
Increasing the innovative strength is only possible if you understand the innovation metrics involved. Going beyond generic innovation metrics such as
- R&D-rate,
- new products’ sales ration,
- number of patents files or
- ideas submitted,
requires an intimate analysis of your current innovation system. A systematic overview an approach is given as an inspiration in this IEEE Engineering Management Review Paper.
