Catapult™

Generating breakthrough concepts that succeed in the marketplace

The Catapult™ Innovation Process focuses on the fuzzy front end of the New Product Development process. Catapult™ incorporates the best practices in research, ideation techniques, and idea management to help companies generate measurable growth through concepts that are new to market.

Opportunity Identification identifies market gaps and prioritizes opportunity areas where the company would want to play. Through market analysis, strategy work sessions, and stakeholder immersion in the consumer experience, the success criteria and opportunity targets are established for Idea Generation.

Idea Generation Catapult™ assembles an innovative group of creative experts in the trends. The objective is to generate at least 15 to 25 idea fragments for consumer review and reaction

Concept Development is a two-stage process. First the team creates concepts through rapid prototyping and iterative feedback with consumers. Then these consumer-worthy concepts are tested qualitatively in exploratory concept research at the end of which there are about a dozen concepts ready for early stage evaluation.

Concept Prioritization identifies the high-potential concepts to move forward into the product development stages by screening and ranking the concepts with the target market

With Beyond Catapult™, Brand IQ offers clients concept optimization and evaluation and early stage sales forecasting.
