The Global Innovation excellence benchmark assesses both your innovation performance and your innovation management approach.

The assessment is based on an online (or paper based) questionnaire which takes 45-60 minutes to complete. Arthur D. Little then provides you with a complementary report.  We measure:

1. Innovation success: "What has your innovation effort delivered in terms of business success?"

2. Innovation Management Practices: "How sophisticated is your innovation management practices vs. best practice?"

The assessment allows us to confirm the relationship between innovation success (sales, EBIT, etc.) and current Innovation Management Practices (IMPs).  It positions benchmark participants against your peer group and other participating companies.  We can then explore how improving your Innovation Management Practices could improve performance and return on innovation.
