It all starts with that one brilliant idea. But how do you turn that it into excellent business? BEACON’s expertise lies in successfully executing the innovation process in order to achieve this.
Speed is crucial for any innovation. The quicker you go to market, the greater the chance of success, and the greater the return on your innovation. Based on our long and deep experience in the business, we have set out five golden rules which will help you save time and speed up the innovation process.
All innovations bring risks and uncertainties. The more control you have over your innovation process, the better you can manage your daily activities in parallel.
BEACON will help you to get a grip on your innovation project, minimize your risks and improve your results so that you can innovate with peace of mind.
Innovation most of the time involves many different disciplines. An innovation team is a wide mixture of different specialists – like technical, marketing, legal and supply chain. Individual characters, who all need to work together. This isn’t always going to go as smoothly as you would like it to. Conflicts of interest, contradicting targets and culture differences ask for strong leadership. BEACON project managers’ expertise lies in making these teams perform and getting things done.
Less than 15% of all innovations result in an actual market introduction. There are many reasons for this. In our opinion, taking the bull by the horns at the start of the innovation project is key to a successful innovation. A number of questions need to be answered – for example: is the idea relevant to your customers? Is it technically feasible? Is your business able to make it profitable? We look for answers to these and other questions at different places both within and outside your organization. Once the answers have been found, we roll up our sleeves and start working until the project is successfully completed.
Deliver successful innovations together, that's the mission of BEACON.
To succeed in innovation we utilize your organization’s capabilities. How? In all our projects and assignments, these six rules are guiding us:
