High hit rate Innovating depends upon creating new solutions for problems worth solving that change the User and Supplier experience.
A problem worth solving creates momentum for change.
The characteristics of problems worth solving are:
- The problem is important, urgent, and frequent, affecting both the User and Supplier.
- The problem is recognizable; defined as a gap between actual and desired outcomes.
- The problem description is solution neutral.
- The problem is solvable.
- The solution must have duality; a measurable impact on both the User experience and Supplier performance.
- The solution specification is definable, desirable, feasible, and viable.
- Solving the problem is verifiable.
- The new solution provides a clear alternative to the existing solution.
