Background

Even in today's highly uncertain world called VUCA World, future-oriented R & D investment remains the source of corporate competitiveness. Because of the rapidly changing environment, it is necessary to redefine "what the company wants to be" and "what to focus on for that purpose" in anticipation of future business growth and to proactively draw a path toward its achievement.

Draw a vision based on future hypotheses, incorporate a scenario for its achievement into a feasible plan, and flexibly adapt it to the environmental changes. To make an effective R & D investment, it is necessary to carry out this series of processes at a high level.

Issues(As Is)

However, there are some cases where many companies recognize the need but have not put it into practice.

  • Since they have not been able to draw "what to do" to achieve their future vision, they can only invest in "what they can do" as an extension of traditional business
  • Vaguely knowing "what to do," it is not incorporated into a feasible plan and is just a pie in the sky
  • There is a plan, but the organization cannot respond flexibly and consistently to environmental changes

Goal(To Be)

  • The future vision is drawn and has penetrated the organization
  • A feasible plan, which is a roadmap, has been developed to achieve the future vision
  • A system to run the PDCA cycle of R & D investment based on the roadmap has been established

Solutions

  1. Definition of future vision and development of a roadmap
    We support the development of a roadmap starting from the future that is not bound by existing business. We design and facilitate workshops that bring together organizational knowledge and create roadmaps as deliverables
  2. Design and introduction of the roadmap update processes
    We design update processes (large/small) to update the roadmap as the environment changes and support its establishment in the organization
  3. Design and introduction of a management process based on the roadmap
    We will incorporate a roadmap into the investment decision-making process of the organization (annual budget planning, etc.), design a system for the PDCA cycle of R & D investment to achieve the future vision, and support the establishment in the organization
