Advanced
manufacturers—people who make “things”—face the same
challenges in the Digital Age as their counterparts that traffic
wholly in bits and bytes. Relentless immediacy. Increased
transparency. In this article, the innovation architect Doug Collins
reflects on the results from a survey that the analyst firm Frost &
Sullivan conducted as part of the Manufacturing Leadership Council.
What are the more advanced of the advanced manufacturing thinking
these days about the practice of collaborative innovation? Are they
on track?
Collaborative Innovation: something for everyone
Broad
applicability makes the practice of collaborative innovation
powerful. A group in product development starts the practice. Another
group—the retail store associates—picks it up to good effect.
Human resources takes notice of the uptick in engagement. They come
calling.
The people who make things
In
this spirit I read with interest the June 2015 issue of
the Manufacturing
Leadership Journal.
Frost & Sullivan sponsors the Manufacturing
Leadership Council,
which publishes journal every other month. Council members consist of
people working at firms engaged in advanced forms of manufacturing
(e.g., Cisco, Doosan, Ford, Tata, GlaxoSmithKline, and The Procter &
Gamble Company).
