Innovation Audit

Assess and Identify

ASSESSMENT

The need to assess and clearly identify how your organization is prepared to develop innovation activities may benefit from an audit, performed by a professional and independent team applying specific audit methodologies based on ISO 19011.

ANALYSIS

The purpose of an innovation audit is to provide an analysis of the whole or parts of innovation management framework, such as innovation culture, strategy, collaboration, initiatives and projects, processes, results and impacts. Internal audits ensure that efficiency and effectiveness of the management system are evaluated, including recommendations for improvement.

RESULTS

The results to be achieved can be directly linked to the purposes of your organization, including the assessment of the degree of readiness to adopt international standards for innovation management (e.g., ISO 56002), the identification of improvement areas or the creation of a benchmarking exercise through which learning of good practices and successful cases inspire you for future activities.
