Innovation Consulting

Are You Looking for the Optimal Technical Solution?

The course for customer acceptance and cost is already set before development, namely in the definition of products and the technologies used to realize them.

We can offer support for your ideas at a very early stage, in the first phase of product definition. We can assess technologies and the feasibility of solutions for you. And, of course, we will gladly implement your innovation, your product idea and the underlying technology for you.

If you already have products or devices on the market, let's talk about the possibilities to get more out of them for your customers.

Through the transfer of solutions between different industries, through our experience and our approach that is centered on the end user, we can find your optimal solution together.

Product Definition

How Does Your Idea Evolve into a Product or a Service? Would You Like to Realize Your Idea with Little Development Effort?

The journey from an idea to a successful product or service is usually a rocky one. We support you with our knowledge of business models, methods and technologies. We define your optimal product together with all stakeholders: product management, user, production, sales, service, etc. This and our outside view mean for you that no aspect is missed and therefore no expensive adjustments are needed during development or manufacturing.

In the „System Definition” phase, which is inspired by Design Thinking, we work with you to take your idea from workshops to rapid prototypes to requirements specifications. This serves as a basis for the development of a MVP (Minimum Viable Product), a first usable product which serves you to get feedback from your customers.

You profit from clear requirements, leading to fewer iterations in development and thus to smaller effort. However, clear requirements only arise if an efficient process is used. That is why Solcept provides you with a customized process for defining the product objective and product specification, with workshops, coaching and analyses.

Technologies & Feasibility

Is Your Technology the Problem or the Solution?

The optimal technical solution can increase your customer value and reduce your cost. To find this solution, all our knowledge is at your disposal for technology comparisons, idea workshops and development of new solutions. In a further step we can create rapid prototypes for you to validate the technologies.

We gladly use our outside perspective and experience from projects for many different industries for your efficient and effective use of technology. You can also benefit from the knowledge of our partners, if required.

Innovation Realization

How Does the Innovation, the New Technology Get into Your Product?

From concept and innovation to technology and market-ready product, we can support you at every step:

You achieve a significant risk reduction by having us create functional prototypes of various sophistication for you, to prove the definite feasibility in the technical field and also to practically prove the market acceptance. Then, in order to define your product with all its functional, but above all non-functional aspects (such as operability, safety, certifications), we generate the product definition together with you.

Product Extension

Can Your Product Get Even Better?

Do your customers need additional features? Or different functions? New interfaces to portable devices or the Internet?

Get more out of your products for your customers, especially out of your embedded and technical software.
