Proven techniques for problem-solving

Systematic Innovation (TRIZ)

TRIZ is the Russian acronym for Theory of Inventive Problem Solving. TRIZ was started by Genrich Altschuller and is based on the analysis of thousands of patents and systems.

TRIZ problem-solving tools are widely used by companies in the US, Europe, Russia, Korea and Japan to define problems, formulate processes, analyse operations and identify ideal results.

While TRIZ is well-known in engineering and technology, many companies are now using TRIZ tools to solve business and management problems.

Examples of business projects where TRIZ tools were used successfully include:

  • Increasing sales effectiveness.
  • Generating a new marketing concept that increased sales.
  • Inventing a new business model.
  • Increasing the performance of a training practice.
  • Discovering a new market for a service.
  • Predicting potential failures in a new business model.

In 2002, Samsung's Advanced Institute of Technology congratulated a TRIZ consultant for saving US$90 million and improving its R & D using TRIZ.  The TRIZ Journal
