Reasons Why Organizations Reasons Why Organizations Need New MethodsNeed New Methods
1. Burden of problem solving to come up with the “best” solution to a problem is dependant (in most cases) as to who is on the team
2. How do you know you have the best solution?
3. Overcome “Psychological Inertia”
4. Individuals Have Limited Knowledge
5. One Grand Idea Mind-set

The Basis of TRIZ: The Basis of TRIZ: Patent ResearchPatent Research
Over 3.0 million world-wide patents analyzed21% (only innovative patents) were studied 3 Key Discoveries: 3 Key Discoveries:
1.1. Problems and solutions were repeated across industries & sciences
2.2. Patterns of technical evolution were repeated across industries & sciences
3.3. Innovations used scientific effects outside the field where they were developed

Development of TRIZDevelopment of TRIZ 1940’s-present -- Originated in work of G.
Altshuller in the USSR 1970’s -- Began world-wide propagation
Industry and government users
– Product development, process, and technology improvements

TRIZ in ManufacturingTRIZ in Manufacturing TRIZ use has increased in the manufacturing
industry in the Western world. Different factors driving this are:1. Companies introduce product innovations faster and have
more difficulty attracting skilled R&D professionals. 2. The availability of state-of-the-art software supporting the TRIZ
methodology.
Impact & focus of TRIZ use in Manufacturing :1. The ‘product’ is intimately linked to the process by which it is
made . Any change in the product is mostly achieved by an adaptation of the process.
2. TRIZ knowledge base has initially been built on information contained in patents. But ‘kitchen secrets’ of how to produce a metal alloy or an engineering plastic are usually not patented.
3. Causes of a problem in a process cannot easily be pinpointed. The problems can be tracked down to causes in areas like raw materials, chemistry, control loops etc.

ConclusionsConclusions about TRIZ and about TRIZ and ManufacturingManufacturing
TRIZ is being successfully applied in the process industry. Already the introduction of functional analysis offers a lot of added benefit and possibilities for further improvement
RCA + TRIZ are a strong team. Making explicit the possible causes of a problem and their interdependence is an important step to make before trying to solve the problem.
TRIZ knowledge is indeed generic enough to be used for production processes The adoption of TRIZ as a methodology for solving problems in the
process industry would benefit a lot if more cases studies would be published.

The 7 areas of the Baldrige Award Criteria, The 7 areas of the Baldrige Award Criteria, and the creativity challenges in each area. and the creativity challenges in each area.
Section Creativity Issues
1. Leadership How do you seek future opportunities, communicate values, address social and community responsibilities, improve the leadership system
2. Strategic Planning
How do you anticipate customer and market expectations, create of new opportunities. What are the product and service development methods. How are action plans are developed?
3. Customer and Market Focus
What are your approaches to listening to customers and non-customers? How are customer-focused new services and products developed? How are the processes for listening to customers and markets improved?
4. Information and Analysis
How data are gathered, how data are used for decision making, how are comparative data gathered and used?
5. Human Resource Focus
How are work systems designed so that all employees contribute to the organization’s performance and learning objectives? How do you use training/education , how do you improve employee work environment and employee satisfaction?
6. Process Management
How do customer and market requirements influence new service and product design? How do you develop new methods of production/delivery? How are processes improved? How are support processes managed and improved? How are supplier/partner processes developed and improved?
7. Business Results
What organization-specific results should be measured? What actions should be taken in response to results in any area?

TRIZ Work Recognized-Samsung AwardTRIZ Work Recognized-Samsung Award Samsung Electronics (Korea): In 2001 twelve engineers
and three 6 Sigma Black Belts were certified as IMC Innovation Masters. In Q3 2002 a group of another 12 Samsung engineers are starting the program.
The Advanced Institute of Technology of the Samsung Corporation has recognized the work of Nikolay Shpakovsky with a very significant corporate award for the savings of 120 billion won (US$91,200,000.00). Nikolay conducted TRIZ training at Samsung for more than 2000 employees.

More Industry ResultsMore Industry Results Tripled their patent portfolio
production. Saved $8M on one project.
Saved 8 hrs out of an 80 hr manufacturing process and $300,000 in equipment costs.
Developed a solution that will save them millions of dollars a year.
A $2.5M savings is projected over the life of a system optimized using TechOptimizer.
With only 24 hours of TRIZ training and TO usage can actually double the creativity of engineers. Fuji Film Co (Japan): After IMC basic training on
TechOptimizer an engineer submitted 15 patent application during 4 months.

Metrics of TRIZ in IndustryMetrics of TRIZ in IndustryBefore/after measurement of quantity of concepts
and quality of concepts taken from 15 team-based, major projects at
The average from 15 projects were as follows: 10 times more concepts were generated using
TechOptimizer in 1/20th the time. This was measured by the group documenting the # of
concepts they had for the problem/project before starting the TechOptimizer session and how long it took to generate them. This was then compared with the output from the TechOptimizer session.
½ of the new concepts generated were judged by the team to be better concepts than the baseline.
This 2nd measurement was performed by comparing the new concepts to the best previously known concept (i.e. the baseline concept). The criteria for judging this was entirely determined by the customer (e.g. time to implement, cost to implement, performance parameters, etc.).

Metrics of TRIZ: MIT ExperimentsMetrics of TRIZ: MIT Experiments 1996-1997 Invention Machine Corporation taught seminars on
TRIZ with their s/w tools to MIT graduate students Effectiveness of experiment:
One group of MIT students who finished IMC course and the other group of MIT students who knew nothing of their software and the methodology were given a real problem from the industry. The participants had 2 hours to work on the problem. Those who knew how to use TRIZ/TechOptimizer (TO) could use it, the group that had not attended training just used their knowledge and imagination.
In the end a committee that included representatives from both groups and IMC/MIT representatives analyzed the results.
Results: Group that had attended training and used TRIZ/TO generated 80%
more concepts than the other group. Quality-wise, the inventiveness of the concepts of the trained group
was much higher.

Obstacles to company-wide adoption Obstacles to company-wide adoption of TRIZ are human, not technical:of TRIZ are human, not technical:
Time: People are too busy "fighting fires" to learn new methods of fire prevention
Suspicion: Other "new methods" have over-promised productivity improvement, customer satisfaction, faster time to market, higher ROI or EVA, etc.
Traditional methods of project management: If the success of a project is measured by traditional milestones, and the new process doesn't match those milestones, there will be great pressure to work within the existing system.
The NIH syndrome. NIH means "not invented here" and can have double meaning for TRIZ-both "not invented in the organization" and "not invented in this country." A sub-category of NIH is "Well, it may work for so-and-so, but it won't work for us." Our problems are different/high tech/not in their data base/controlled by regulators, etc.
