Innovation and Creativity Methods
The innovation methodology combines structured methods and procedures to systematically develop new solutions for complex engineering challenges. Rather than relying on spontaneous ideas, it applies intuitive, systematic, and contradiction-oriented approaches that can be used individually or together depending on the problem.
Service Overview
The innovation methodology comprises the combined application of methods and procedures with the aim of finding new solutions to a problem. This replaces the incidental finding of ideas by systematic, strategic generation.
The applied methods are classified into intuitive, systematic, and contradiction-oriented approaches and can be used individually or combined.
