Achieving sustainable growth

NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

"Innovate or Die" was the stark title of a recent IOD convention. As customers (consumers) are increasingly better informed and competition to gain their business grows ever stronger, the ability to rapidly respond and innovate is one of the key success factors of tomorrow's company.

Innovation can take many forms from internal process transformation to new product and service offerings. Some innovations involve major breakthroughs, whilst the majority rely on incremental changes that have major impacts on customers' perceptions and underpin efforts to maintain market share.

Research shows that successful companies differentiate themselves through the ways they innovate. These often involve major organisational changes.

Centre for Innovation

The CIIT was formed to promote thought leadership in the delivery of innovation through information technology. Currently the centre is researching three areas of interest, Innovation and Value, IT Governance and Value, and Transformational Outsourcing.

KnowledgePartners are currently working with the sponsors of the Centre – which include the British Computer Society, Henley Management College, Microsoft, EDS and Unisys – to create initial whitepapers on these topics, plus a full research study into these areas using our leading edge techniques.
