The Bosch Innovation Framework is based on the entire life cycle of an innovation and consists of eight iterative phases starting with the definition of the strategic framework and the search fields. Relevant customer problems are then identified for the prioritized search fields and, building on this, ideas are developed using appropriate creative methods. In the following phase, initial solutions and concepts are developed, which are then subjected to systematic, hypothesis-driven validation. After successful validation of the concept, the incubation phase starts, in which the gap between early adopters and the mass market is to be closed via a reproducible sales process. After successful completion of the incubation phase, series development of the new product begins.
