How to Apply Structured Technology Innovation Process
　
Structured technological innovation process is one of the core elements of technological innovation management system. It is found that although the ultimate goal of technological innovation is novel and unexpected results, the process of technological innovation is a complex process from new conception to commercialization. It is not only a process of genius and luck, but also a process that can be managed and improved, which needs to be promoted by decision-making process. Many practices show that structured technological innovation process can greatly improve the success rate of new product projects and shorten the development cycle of new products.


Structured technological innovation process is to divide technological innovation process into several stages according to logic in order to accurately manage the development process. Enterprises can divide stages and establish standard processes according to their own needs, the complexity of innovation projects and the content of innovation. However, in order to give full play to people's innovative ability, the development process should find a balance between unstructured (random, non-standard) and over-structured (complex, rigid).






Key tasks in the process of structured technology innovation include: preliminary screening projects, preliminary market assessment, preliminary technology assessment, detailed market research, pre-development business and financial analysis, product development, internal testing, customer product testing, trial marketing, pre-release business analysis, start-up production and market release. Implement market plan.






Structured technological innovation processes are usually divided into three basic processes or six to seven stages: creativity (discovery/concept, planning), development (design and testing), listing (market validation, release, life cycle management). Each stage of process evolution needs to be implemented step by step. There are clearly defined delivery items in each stage, which can be accomplished in several steps. Each step may include several tasks to complete a specified delivery.






The important feature of structured technology innovation process is to set up a review link (also known as access control audit) between different stages. The project evaluation committee evaluates the project delivered at this stage according to the evaluation criteria, makes stage decisions (suspension, suspension, postponement and redo of the previous stage), allocates resources, and approves the power, responsibility, resources and work plan of the project team to carry out the next stage work. In order to control the rhythm and risk of resources investment, and eliminate unnecessary waste.
