- 1. Structured Innovation An introduction to I-TRIZ Innovation Workbench Innovation Workbench
- 2. Presenter •Dave Ramsey – 25 years in manufacturing – Operations executive – Human Resources exec. – 12 yrs facilitation – 12 yrs consulting – $2.5 million in client savings
- 3. TRIZ Benefits • Systematic Step by Step Procedure • Invention Guide –identifies area with ideality • Reliability & Repeatability • Accessibility to patent information • Accumulation of innovation experience • Extensive tools for solution of problems
- 4. TRIZ – Innovative Problem Solving • TRIZ is a Russian acronym • Originated in 1948 by Genrich Altshuller • Analyzed 2 million + patents worldwide • Identified 5 Levels of Innovative Solutions • 8 Laws of Development of Solutions • Created systematic, structured method Altshuller 1928 - 1998
- 5. TRIZ Basics • 50 years of research • Universal Principles of Invention present – 40 Inventive Principles – 76 Standard Solutions – System of Operators • 2 million patents examined & classified – Level of inventiveness – Principles of innovation used
- 6. Levels of Innovation Level 1: • Solution by well‐known methods Standard
- 7. Levels of Innovation Level 2: • Improvement of existing system Improvement • Methods from same industry Level 1: • Solution by well‐known methods Standard
- 8. Levels of Innovation Level 3: • Essential improvement of existing system Within Paradigm • Methods from other fields used Level 2: • Improvement of existing system Improvement • Methods from same industry Level 1: • Solution by well‐known methods Standard
- 9. Levels of Innovation Level 4: • Creating new generation of a system Outside Paradigm • Solution from science - not technology Level 3: • Essential improvement of existing system Within Paradigm • Methods from other fields used Level 2: • Improvement of existing system Improvement • Methods from same industry Level 1: • Solution by well‐known methods Standard
- 10. Levels of Innovation Level 5: • Pioneering an essentially new system Discovery • Usually based on major discovery, new science Level 4: • Creating new generation of a system Outside Paradigm • Solution from science ‐ not technology Level 3: • Essential improvement of existing system Within Paradigm • Methods from other fields used Level 2: • Improvement of existing system Improvement • Methods from same industry Level 1: • Solution by well‐known methods Standard
- 11. TRIZ Foundations • Problems & solutions repeated across industries & sciences • Patterns of technical evolution repeated across industries & sciences • Innovations used scientific effects from outside the field of innovation
- 12. TRIZ Defined The practice of TRIZ consists of: 1.Learning A. Repeating pattern of problems B. Solutions C. Patterns of technical evolution D. Methods of using scientific effects 2. Applying the patterns to the specific situation
- 13. Current Common Techniques • 8‐D Problem Solving • Market Research • Reliability Studies • Robust Design • Trial & Error • 6 Thinking Hats • 5 Whys (TPS) • Brainstorming • Quality Function Deployment (QFD)

- 21. TRIZ Methodology Operators TRIZ General Problem TRIZ General Sol’n ax2 + bx + c = 0 x = −b± b2 −4ac 2a 1, 2 Specialization Abstraction Your Specific Problem Your Specific Solution Guess 2 3x +5x + 2 = 0 2 x = −1,− 3
- 22. TRIZ Problem Solving Process Analyze the Problem What to Try? Principles Prediction Effects YES Solution cause problems? NO Implement
- 23. Analyze the Problem • Functional Analysis of: – System – Sub‐system – Components • Ideal Final Result Ideality = ΣBenefits / (ΣCosts + ΣHarm) • Resources • Locate Zones of Conflict • Etc.
- 24. Operators, Principles, Conditions •Laws of Development of Engineered Systems • Levels of Abstraction • Substance Field Theory (Su‐Field Theory) • Separation Principles • System of Standard Solutions
- 25. Anticipatory Failure Determination • Creation of Failure Scenarios • Asks how will a failure happen? • Identifies conditions/resources necessary for failure • Uncovers complex causes • Operates from “How can we produce failure?” basis Analyze the Problem What to Try? Principles Prediction Effects YES Solution Cause New Problems? NO Implement
- 26. IWB – Innovation Work Bench • Uses the TRIZ Principles • Shortens the algorithms • Promotes quicker user involvement • Promotes more frequent & often use
