Benefits of Higher Level Thinking™

 

Concepts Generated from Higher-Level Thinking for Complete Product Evolution.

What if your company held the roadmap for the way that your products will "evolve" for the next 5-10 years?

What if you could see every possible product improvement and feature combination?

Undoubtedly your company would hold an unbeatable market dominating competive advantage.

The Industry Innovation Blueprint is a complete map to the future of your entire product family.

From this document your company can create new innovative products that: provide:

• provide higher levels of product performance
• increase marketshare
• enhance the user experience
• reduce costs of manufacturing

Newly created products that perform at "higher levels" are considered innovations.

But, when a new product concept initiates a shift in the marketplace in terms of customer experience or design, this new product concept is considered "disruptive". Meaning, that an entirely new level of user experience has been achieved and the rest to the market must realign to "catch up" to the level of performance of the newly introduced product.

Innovative Patent Technology has created a proprietary methodology that generates "disruptive innovations" for the products, industries and services to which it is applied.

The output of this methodology is the Industry Innovation Blueprint. This is a comprehensive
document that provides the user with a complete conceptual blueprint for disruptive product concepts.

Below is an overview of what you will find in the Industry Innovation Blueprint for your specific product family:

Introduction. The core content of this Industry Innovation Blueprint consists of design concepts related to your product family. There are several categories of concepts, including the following:

Improvements. Concepts which represent improvements to current products available in the marketplace include those of your competitors.

Solutions. Concepts which represent solutions to existing performance shortcoming or design challenges.

New Products. Concepts which lead to new product families and line extensions.

Displacement. Concepts which should tend to displace products currently in the marketplace – no matter how successful they are today

Disruptive. Concepts which will positively disrupt existing product markets – provided they are engineered and introduced appropriately. “Disruptive products” usually require expertise which emerges from new technologies, previously unexplored.

Wild-Card – This Industry Innovation Blueprint also contains a relatively small number of ‘wild-card’ concepts. Included among these concepts are

• Concepts whose conceptual description is as of yet incomplete,
• Concepts that are expressed merely in the form of an idealized-design target)
• Concepts that appear to be cost-prohibitive (for now)
• Concepts that border on fantasy
• Concepts that are very general or abstract in their nature;
• Concepts that beg for a technology which does not yet exist. No wild-card concepts should be initially discounted simply because they are considered to be “far out” or remote. That is because some new, disruptive products come from this category (see “Disruptive” concepts above).

Intellectual Property. The concepts in this Industry Innovation Blueprint represent substantial intellectual property. The company that controls this intellectual property is set to acquire significantly more marketplace share in their respective product markets.

Specificity and Generality. Most of the concepts in this Industry Innovation Blueprint are specific enough so that it is relatively easy to determine where, in the shaving-system product hierarchy, they ‘belong’ – just what parts of a product family can benefit from their application. At the same time, most of the concepts in this Industry Innovation Blueprint are broad enough so that several far-more-specific concepts can emerge from each Industry Innovation Blueprint concept. In other words, the question  “Has this idea been patented before?” should not serve as an obstacle to taking the White-Paper concepts offered, and engineering a new or improved product which enjoys minimal threat of infringing upon an already-patented concept or design.
