2. Challenges
• Find the right users (customers)
• Overcome different perceptions
• Penetrate different types of
needs
• Provide the right competence
where needed
• Resources/willingness to invest
in ”customer knowledge”
• Put the new knowledge into
the design process
3. Innovation
Each step involves customer need discovery
and verification

An idea that potentially create
value for customers in a new
way (business idea
formulation, problem
description)
Analysis the
value that can be created
(the business plan, VoC, market
size estimation)
Funcitionality test
of value creation
e.g. (test installation)
Feedback from users
(actual sales, warranty,
surveys)
The first real test: Who
buys for how much?
(launch and initial sales)

available remotely
9. Functionality of a system
Definition of functions: A=>B
(Noun) - Verb - Noun
- The car signals image.
- The bottle contains water
- The watch tells time.
Functional performance characteristics
Ex. the function to “show time” can be measured as:
- Accuracy (how many minutes +/- in a year?)
- Exactness (hours, minutes, seconds…)
- How many time zones (three in parallel)

12. A structured process to
capture needs
- VoC -
1. Undertand your
invention/product (functional
analysis) and prepare
customer interviews
2. Set up meetings (hard work!)
3. Conduct and follow-up
interviews/visits
4. Analyze and compile results
5. Quantify via surveys (if
necessary)
13. Voice of the customer (VOC)
- Two vital steps for generation of new
knowledge
Exploration Verification
(Testing of our hypothesis)

Customer needs are
created in different areas
15. The Dominant Managerial
Logic
• Overuse of existing knowledge
• Which are the basic potential
customer needs?
• Who is the customer?
• The difficult process of unlearning
• The limit of a core competence
approach to innovation and
business extension
16. The IBE Phenomenon
- An Example
1980s: Digital X-ray
1984: Magnetic Resonance Imaging
1976: Computer Tomography
1979: Nuclear Cameras
1965-1970: Heart Monitors
1990: Ultrasound Imaging
1913: X-rayTubes

17. Generic strategies to increase customer
value
- What is the long-term survival
strategy?
• Increase functionality
• Influence the customers
perception of value
• Sell to the right
customer
• Lower the price

18. User-driven
innovation ?
• Value for users is a driver
through the innovation
process
• User-decisions is a driver for
growth
• End-users drive the
commercial chain in the long-
run
• But, entrepreneurs/venture
teams drive innovation
22. A ten-step bottom-up approach to
market estimation
1. See the product in the users hands (”Viceralization”) – who will use it?
2. Discuss value and customer needs – how many are interested?
3. Understand the customer chain – who win/who loose/who pay?
4. Price in relationship to competition and substitution - how much will
be paid and what will you get paid?
5. How large is the population of potential buyers at that price
(maximum size of market)?
6. Adoption rate – how fast will customers buy?
7. Life cycle of products – how long will sales last?
8. Influence of competition – how will the buying pattern change?
9. Product range extension and product differentiation – how can the
market be develop further?
10. Risk analysis: identify threats, consequences and how to mediate –
what is the best, most likely and worst case?
23. Example: Market Estimation
• Use the step-wise process to guide your
discussion
• Estimate the market size of a wave-driven
bailer for small boats in Norway
24. 1. See the product in the users hands
(”Viceralization”) – who will use it?
• Links to the VoC work
• A choice
• Example: Automatic Welding Helmets
– For everyone?
– Indoor/outdoor
– Type of welding (MIG, TIG...)
– Large/small companies
– Safety culture in different countries
25. 2. Discuss value and customer needs – how
many are interested?
• The customer value equation: how does it apply for
the different users?
• What is the customer value in economic and other
terms?
• Use the functional analysis to penetrate this question
• Example: The RV Maserator
– Very unwanted funtions eliminated
– Vacation and RV is expensive, Maserator cheap...
26. 3. Understand the customer chain – who
win/who loose/who pay?
• It is your sales figures that are of interest!
• Use the Five forces model
• Who provides what in the customer chain
from a customer value perspective?
• Example: A new fuel-level sensor to the
automobile industry
– Car dealer, manufacturer, supplier, sub-supplier...
– Low bargaining power?
27. 4. Price - how much will be paid and what
will you get paid?
• Cost-based or Value-based
• Competition
• Substitites
• Currency-rates/local buing power
• Total costs for customer
• Example: RV Maserator, oil detection tool,
and composite wave guide
28. 5. How large is the population of potential
buyers at that price?
• Stick to the right level of analysis when using macro
data
• Creativity is needed in most cases to extrapolate
from known sources of statistics
• Focus on the first target market that can prove your
case
• Example: Ultrasound diagnostics Logiq
700/500/400
– Known statistics on health-care operations
– Known standard of living/buying power
– A model of the market was created to make estimatins on
size
29. 6-7. Adoption rate and Life cycle– how fast
will customers buy and for how long?
• The adoption curve
• Installed-base
• Substitution curve
• Crossing the chasm
30. 8. Influence of competition
• Price pressure
• Economies of scale and scope
• Substitutes
31. 9. Product range extensions
• Next version
• Range
• Price-differentiation
• Modular offer

Whats so damn sad about competition, if it wasn´t for the damn japanese I would have had a calm and comfortable life, Lennart Johansson former CEO and president of SKF
Evolution and progress of mankind...
1. A car is something completely different from 20 years ago, funcitionality explosion and Same price relatively
2. Fridge from $ 1620-380 and including an icemaker, this means a huge price cut
3. TV from 3280 to 300
Now big fuss about the truth in this statement, but often we forget it when deciding about priorities and necessary activities

CHAMPS affärsidé: företag har problem att förnya sig och utvecklas för att överleva och/eller växa => program för att utveckla företagets ledare och chefer ger dom kunskap att åstakomma förnyelse och färändring- etablerade industriföretag i teknikintensiva branscher – vi står för marknadskanal, förändringskompetens, och ett nätverk av experter och forskare, vilket ger oss möjlighet att erbjuda skräddarsydda utvecklingsprogram
dot.com företag??
IKEA: möbler är dyrt för slutkunden, kostnader ligger i produktion, lagerhållning, och distribution=>byggsatser minskar kostnader i alla tre dimensionerna => marknad…=>design, utställningshallar, lager och ett nätverk av producerade underleverantörer i låglöneländer
Boo.com: bror duktig, men i alla fall….vem har problem med inköp och logistik med modekläder?
Singer visar att problemlösning ej är förknippat med produkter…
- GE och flygmotorer: flygplan på marken är dyrt, och motorservice är en stor bidragande orsak, erbjud tjänsten flygtimmar istället för produkten flygmotor, behåll ägandet och serva på ett nytt sätt, marknad flygbolag

Non-diversification for 40 years: decreasing margins, increased competition, stable or declining market
Unrelated diversification (relatively): Medical Technology products: a range of initiatives, major investments, 300% growth, but project failures and profits in the red
Back to the original core-business which was misstreated in the diversificatoin era, marketing and product development
new opportunities threats in computer technology…
Related diversification is the entry of a firm into new lines of business through processes of internal development, which entails changes in structure, systems, and other managerial processes
- Large technology-based firms: especially attractive due to the nature of technology, turbulent environments, and often emerging opportunities
Problematic, research in the 70s and 80s studied diversity and relatedness, but limited understanding?
- No focus on the innovation process or managing diversity, consists of diversification moves
- UNDERSTAND:
the diversification process
resource-utilization and creation
managerial and organizational processes (dynamic capabilities)

In the seventies USSR launched a lunar probe, with the purpose of transmitting TV pictures back to earth
conventional light bulb in spot light for the camera lighting
the most durable light bulbs found was from military armoured vehicles and tanks, e.g. for parashuite launching
but tests showed that those bulbs would crack at the joint between the glass and the screw base
How could this problem be solved???
