Solving the worlds biggest challenges requires using the worlds best brains. To do this you have to ask the right question and come with the right problem and present that problem to the right audience. This presentation shares the approach and some of the examples of Grand Challenges successfully executed by NineSigma, the global leader in open innovation.
Using prize based competitions for implementing innovationsRick Wielens
Prize based innovation competitions with professional innovators using a expert crowd approach delivers more then just solutions. The Innovation Contest is a competition that enables rapid development of an actionable solution through a prize-based competition. The Innovation Contest, which combines the best practices of a well-crafted technology search with carefully integrated PR elements, catalyzes solution provider response while publically positioning the Sponsor as an organization that
is open to working with external innovation partners. Swiftly and tightly managed, the Innovation Contest drives rapid development of solutions, which can include prototypes that are guaranteed to meet the evaluation criteria because they’re built to tight criteria and specifications through the contest format.

Numerous challenges face organizations manufacturing products today as the market moves more towards extreme design and demand variability, expectations of rapid innovation and the onset of markets of one. To address these challenges manufacturing companies are looking to leverage the principles of the 4IR, Industry4.0 technologies and Product Innovation to drive efficiency into their production operations. Success requires deep knowledge, skills and a collaborative approach in the Digital Culture4.0
It is our job to be your eyes and ears on the ground to help you identify, approach, engage and attract those and the people associated in developing and delivering. This global headhunting approach for the rarest skills in the market is what differentiates us from the rest. Finding permanent or sub-contracted resources to deliver innovative new and existing products efficiently to your customers is our forte!

Abstract:
Customer Wellness & Fitness reveals the major cycles and moments of joy and disappointment in strategic service outsourcing engagements. At the core of this thesis is applying the physician’s Hippocratic Oath to complex service engagements: “To Do No Harm.” Service agreements describing these engagements generally last anywhere from three years to ten years and represent hundreds of millions and at times billions of dollars of revenue over the contract period. We discover the first six months prior to contract signing and the first six months after contract signing represent a critical year. This is when the seeds are sown in the soil of the relationship for sustainable satisfaction and healthy performance or dissatisfaction and interaction illness. Developed diagnostics allow teams to understand if working together is on-track for success or will derail and wither early-on. Starting with inquiry and research for IBM clients and then observations with other enterprises and their clients value chain partners, there are observable patterns contributing to customer wellness and fitness across a constellation of enterprise activities. The good news: Most derailment factors are preventable. The bad news: Organization inertia and inappropriate incentives along with insufficient key performance indicators (KPIs) and service level agreements (SLAs) whether delivered by people or platforms continue to plague strategic relationships.

CASE STUDY
20. Copyright 2014, NineSigma 20
• The 3D Printing Production Quest was a public Innovation Contest hosted
on NineSights to identify cutting edge technology that can produce
complex parts with high precision by additive manufacturing processes,
using high density, refractory metals.
• Phase 1: Mapping the Ecosystem: 22 proposals were received. The top 10
respondents each received a $5K cash prize and advanced to participate
in Phase 2 of the Quest.
• Phase 2: Producing Test Coupons: Groups had 90 days to manufacture
test coupons from GE supplied materials that were then evaluated for
geometric precision, overall mass, and overall volume.
• GE selected three fabricators with capabilities to produce complex medical
imaging device parts with high precisions based on statistical analysis as
well as several qualitative aspects.
PHASES
OVERVIEW
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• The Quest pushed the limits of additive technologies, and
identify production leaders that are operating at the forefront of
3D printing.
• Identified technologies will drive greater product performance,
quality and cost savings for healthcare customers.

• GE’s Industrial Solutions business launched the Ergonomic Circuit
Breaker Handle Quest on NineSights to identify innovative
designs for an attractive, user-friendly, ergonomic rotary handle
accessory for its molded case circuit breaker. The new design
needed to provide a mounted mechanism that converted between
the linear motion of the toggle and the rotary motion of the handle.
RESULTS
OVERVIEW
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• The Quest was launched in April 2014 and ran until July 2014.
• GE worked with NineSigma to invite inventors everywhere to help
solve the design challenge and find new solutions, knowledge and
designers to ultimately accelerate the innovation cycle.
• Five winners were selected, each receiving a cash prize of $10,000
for their innovation design.
• GE is applying fundamentally different approaches to new
product development which leverage the crowd.
• Running an Innovation Contest has allowed GE to quickly
develop a new product, and they will introduce a state-of-
the-art circuit breaker platform in half the time of previous
product launches.
