Technological innovation process Technological innovation process is a result ofis a result of::
Inventions, discoveries CreativitySerendipitous A function of economic demand
and growth
Complex and long process

The process of technological advance:the combination of chance events and
inventions (variation), direct social and political action of
organizations in selecting between rival technical regimes (selection),
as well as by incremental, competence-enhancing, puzzle-solving actions of many organizations learning-by-doing (retention).
![Page 9: Selection: Understanding Technology Evolution and Technology Strategy Technology Management Activities and Tools.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013121/551a49e2550346545e8b534a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Technology develops in response to the interplay of history, individuals, and market demand. Function of both variety and chance as well as structure and patterns.
SO:
Technological progress constitutes an evolutionary system.

Competence-enhancing discontinuities significantly advance the state of the art yet build on, or permit the transfer of, existing know-how and knowledge.
Competence-destroying discontinuities significantly advance the technological frontier, but with a knowledge, skill, and competence base that is inconsistent with prior know-how.

Most managers are not trained in science or engineering.
Little knowledge on the process of technological change.
Limited experience and lack of adequate frameworks.
Technological change proceeds slowly: significant change requires 5-10 years.
Most firms are organized around the production process not the technological innovation process.

Strategy is the art of creating valueStrategy is the art of creating value (Source: Normann and Ramirez, 1993)(Source: Normann and Ramirez, 1993)
It allows a company’s managers to identify opportunities for bringing value to customers and for delivering that value at a profit.
2 resources that matter in today’s economy: * competence and * relationships (customer and supplier)
Innovate: Not just add value but reinvent it.
![Page 28: Selection: Understanding Technology Evolution and Technology Strategy Technology Management Activities and Tools.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013121/551a49e2550346545e8b534a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Core competenceNot only performance improvement but also
opportunity creation.
Performance improvement includes quality, costs, cycle time, logistics, and productivity, while
opportunity creation consists of growth, new business and market development, strategic direction.

Core competencies are: The collective learning in the organization,
especially how to coordinate diverse production skills and integrate multiple streams of technologies.
The organization of work and the delivery of value.
Communication, involvement and a deep commitment to working across organizational boundaries.
Does not diminish with use.

1) provides potential access to a wide variety of markets.
2) should make a significant contribution to the perceived customer benefits of the end product.
3) should be difficult for competitors to imitate.

Embedded skills that give rise to the next generation of competitive products cannot be rented in by outsourcing and original equipment manufacturer supply relationships.
the costs of losing a core competence can be only partly calculated in advance.
core competencies take time.

Core products are the components or subassemblies that actually contribute to the value of the end products.
Well-targeted core products can lead to economies of scale and scope.

** Extend the technology analysis to the whole value chain.
** Formulating a technology strategy means defining the 'trajectory' by which technological resources are accumulated, acquired and used
