Process 2020 Innovation SatNav

英国过程工业成功的关键是从新产品识别到交付和发布的快速创新链进展。迄今为止的记录并不乐观，因为全球范围内，由于糟糕的流程设计和产品交付和发布的延迟，整个行业每年损失超过800亿美元。传统的项目管理和并行工程技术，关注于集成和减少每个功能活动的交付时间，并没有导致重大的改进。过程工业现在的问题是，我们如何帮助我们的员工做出决策，减少新产品开发的前置时间，同时最大限度地提高整体产出的价值？从决策和复杂系统的角度来看，拟议的项目将为英国过程工业提供一个灵活和自适应的创新卫星导航系统，可以帮助技术团队和组织在复杂的商业和技术领域中导航。流程和决策的改进将缩短交货时间和成本，同时保持高水平的创造力和创新。该项目将整合并支持将新产品引入市场，这将以多层次的过程改进战略为基础。这种方法将帮助英国的流程工业有竞争力地弥合想法与现实之间的差距。它将通过帮助他们遵循流程可能采取的最节省和最有效的决策路径来做到这一点，同时也确保这条路径能够实现创新，创造力并满足业务驱动因素和约束。

The key to UK Process Industry success is rapid innovation chain progression from new product identification to delivery and launch. The track record to date is not promising as worldwide the sector as a whole loses over 80bn annually due to poor process design and delay in product deliverables and launch. Traditional project management and concurrent engineering techniques, which focus on integrating and reducing the lead-time for each functional activity, has resulted in no major improvement. The Process Industry is now asking, how can we help our people make decisions which reduce the new product development lead-time, whilst maximising the overall output in terms of value? Using a decisional and complex systems perspective, the proposed project will deliver to the UK process industries, a flexible and adaptive innovation SatNav that can help technical teams and organisations navigate the complex business and technological terrain. This step change improvement in process and decision making will reduce lead-time and costs, whilst maintaining high levels of creativity and innovation. The project will integrate and support the introduction of new products to the markets, which will be underpinned by a multi-level process improvement strategy. This approach will help the UK process industries to competitively bridge the gap between an idea and reality. It will do this by helping them to follow the most parsimonious and effective path of decisions that the process could take, whilst also ensuring that that path enables innovation, creativity and satisfies business drivers and constraints.
