In this groundbreaking book, internationally acclaimed authors
demonstrate that innovation can be mastered via systematic and
replicable methods. Following careful instructions and guidelines,
readers discover how to foster the ingenuity that resides within
all organizations and how it can be most efficiently and
effectively used to create value.
At the core of this book is the Function Analysis Systems Technique
(FAST). FAST is a powerful mapping technique that graphically
models projects, products, and processes in function terms and
identifies function dependencies. It is an organized structure
ideally suited to exploring complex issues. Readers start with
basic concepts and then move on to more advanced concepts using
FAST to help their organizations survive and prosper in today's
global economy. Topics include:
* Problem-solving techniques
* Function analysis
* Function Analysis Systems Technique (FAST)
* Dimensioning the FAST model
* Attributes and the FAST model
* Enabling innovation
* From competency to capability
Practical examples and case studies are provided throughout the
book to assist the reader in applying the principles of FAST to
their own organizations.
Stimulating Innovation in Products and Services is based on the
authors' many years of experience advising clients in a variety of
industries, including oil and gas, aerospace, health care, and
man-ufacturing. Its practical focus assists all engineers,
scientists, and managers who want to foster innovation within their
organizations. Extensive use of case studies makes this an ideal
coursebook for MBA students.
