PHASE 1: INNOVATION – PROBLEM/SOLUTION DEFINITION Task 1: Identi fy representat ive problem/issue to solve. Task 2: Architect solut ion based on Task 1. Task 3: Develop solut ion mockup and expected ROI.

PHASE 2: PILOT – TRY/TEST SOLUTION Task 1: Implement proposed solut ion from Phase 1 on a small scale. Task 2: Assess solut ion effect iveness (before & after)

PHASE 3: SCALE – DEPLOY PROVEN SOLUTION Extend methodology to other similar parts or systems
