You have a specification, and you have a clear idea of what you’re looking for.
The next step is to put some work into giving you a tangible view of your idea.
You need a prototype.
This may be a 3D printed mock-up of your product, or a working model that looks almost exactly like a finished article.
It will give you a very clear idea of what the ultimate product will look like and will be something you can touch, feel and handle.
What an easy experience! The product developed so fast and so trouble-free – I could snap my fingers, and it was done. Made me feel like a magician – until I saw the bill at the end of the month. That’s when I realised how much work had gone on behind the scenes. For the future, I will be watching the costs a bit closer – it’s just too easy to rack up big bills. To be fair, this was very transparent, and I had visibility of those costs all the way through – I just didn’t look at it, that’s all.
Having said that, the product is pretty well finished – so we can get it launched earlier than I thought possible. So maybe those costs were a good investment, because we all know how valuable it is to be the first to market.Innovolo is the most valuable business resource we have invested in to date. I strongly recommend any business owners interested in running a successful innovation initiative - whether you already have an R&D team or not - to seriously consider Innovolo's retained service model.
It is an excellent collaboration between our company, and the Innovolo team, and is working extremely well. I am very pleased with your chemists who clearly know what they are doing.
We had a very tight deadline to bring a brand new product to market, and we couldn't have done it without Innovolo's expertise. Thanks again for delivering a high quality and essential project so quickly.
Innovolo's initial understand of our challenges and the need for a rapid ROI confirmed that we had chosen the right partners for this strategic redirection in the company's growth. We were pleased to see the high level of professionalism and collaboration evident from all parts of the team once we gave the green light, and this has given us the confidence to continue the NPD focus into 2021 and beyond.
We used Innovolo for industry analysis with excellent results. Their attention to detail is great, and we appreciated their ability to quickly grasp not only the outcome we were looking for, but an understanding of the markets in which we operate. Highly recommended.
