INNOVATION GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK

Manage Risk, Accelerate Innovation

This framework synchronises decision-making tools and processes to steer technological innovations ensuring technical feasibility, commercial viability, and environmental sustainability.

Innovation is Complex

Creating and commercialising true innovation is a highly complex endeavor. Potential roadblocks are frequent across strategic and operational factors such as people, processes, and resources.

Scimita’s Innovation Governance Framework provides the guard rails that derisks and helps you power through against these challenges.

  • Lack of Common Language

    Misalignment and confusion across innovation ecosystems.

  • Conflicting Stakeholder Views

    Technical, commercial, and environmental goals often clash.

  • Subjective Decision-Making

    Compelling stories override objective and agnostic approaches.

  • Compromised Research Direction

    Misaligned priorities waste time on flawed assumptions.

  • Disconnected Technology Development

    Ignoring constraints leads to wasted efforts and delays.

  • Premature Commercial Initiatives

    Launching too early results in failures or retractions.

Three Elements to IGF-Supported Decision-Making

  • CRL (Commercial Readiness Level)

    Align innovation with market demand, competitive advantage, and revenue goals, while guiding technical development.

  • ERL (Environmental Readiness Level)

    Evaluate environmental claims, regulatory compliance, and lifecycle sustainability, informing CRL and TRL decisions.

  • TRL (Technical Readiness Level)

    Assess and track technical maturity through nine stages, ensuring innovations are systematically developed and market-ready.
