Situation

The company wanted to increase the number and quality of ideas for organizational improvement and growth, make better decisions about which to develop, and to reduce development cycle and implementation time.  They needed a streamlined, standardized ideation process and systems support for 6 Sigma development.

DataLan deployed and configured InnovaOPN, opening ideation to more workers, while streamlining and structuring the review, progression, and visibility of ideas across the enterprise and reducing the time needed to implement those ideas.  After ideas are approved, 6 Sigma roles, tasks, and deliverables are created by the system in support of the idea implementation process.

Benefits

The benefits included an increased number of new ideas, more effective business decisions, and an increased velocity of implementation using 6 Sigma.
