We designed and implemented a customized innovation process for a leading paper and packaging manufacturer.
Challenge
Our client, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of paper and packaging solutions, had grown both organically and through major acquisitions. One of their key goals was to improve their ability to innovate, so they asked us to come in and design and roll out a new innovation process.
Approach
We conducted a discovery phase to ensure that the innovation was customized to the client’s needs, and then proceeded to design, develop, pilot, and launch the program. The work to establish and embed innovation into the company fell into five buckets:
- Framework
- Mindset
- People
- Environment
- Value
Value Delivered
The innovation program launched a pilot to test the proposed framework, and more than 10 innovation ideas were brought into the innovation idea management process. The learnings from the pilot were incorporated into the framework, and the program was formally launched.
