3.1 innovation
new or changed entity, realizing or redistributing value
Note I to entry: Novelty and value are relative to, and determined by the perception of, the organization and interested parties.
Note 2 to entry: An innovation can be a product, service, process, model, method etc.
Note 3 to entry: Innovation is an outcome. The word “innovatlon sometimes refers to activities or processes resulting in. or aiming for, innovation. When innovation” is used in this sense, it should always be used with some form of qualifier, e.g. “innovation activities”.
Note 4 to entry: For the purpose of statistical measurement, refer to the Oslo Manual (OECD/Eurostat 2018):’New or changed entity’ corresponds to ‘a new or improved product or process, or combination thereof, that differs significantly from the unit’s previous products or processes’. ‘Realizing or redistributing value’ corresponds to ‘and that has been made available to potential users or brought into use by the unit’.
LSOIJRCE: ISO 9000:2015, 3.6.15, modified by using the term “entity” instead of “object” and by adding notes]
3.2 Innovation management
management with regard to innovation (3,1)
Note 1 to entry: Innovation management can include establishing an innovation vision, innovation policy and innovation objectives, and innovation strategies, in novat ion processes, structures, roles and responsibilities and innovation support, to achieve those objectives through innovation planning, innovation operations, performance evaluation, improvement and other activities.
3.3 innovation process process with regard to innovation (11)
4 Reasons for carrying out an Innovation Management Assessment
Before initiating an IMA, it is preferable that the organization gains a thorough understanding of the reasons for carrying out an IMA, and about its current IM performance. There may be the need for clarity on the TM and how it is performing, or there may be the need for change in the organization to perform better. In the first case, the IMA’s objective is to provide insights into the current performance
– both strengths, weaknesses and gaps to the desired value creation through better IM. This will be the basis for defining and implementing actions for improvement. In the second case, the IMA may yield a transformation roadmap including organizational changes to reach the level of a high-performing innovator. The following reasons may trigger an organization to initiate an IMA.ISO/TR 56004 pdf download.
