Solution Development
Have you ever had such a clever idea you couldn't imagine that it would not be a success then, for whatever the reason, it just didn't develop as you thought it would - maybe not at all? If so, you're not alone.
Ideas fail to become viable solutions for many reasons. The diagram below shows the basic flow of an idea or concept through a series of "tests" or prototype stages to prove its worth as a solution. Here are the questions it has to answer to go from one stage to the next:
- Field Prototype: Does it work?
- Manufacturing Prototype: How does a person make it?
- Total Life Cycle Prototype: How can a person repair it? Or reuse it? Or repurpose it? Or recycle it?
