PRIZ Platform Takes Project Overviews to the Next Level with this New Feature

We’re pleased to introduce our new Project Creation Assistant, designed to enhance your approach to problem-solving initiatives. This valuable tool addresses an important issue we’ve recently identified: many people don’t view problem-solving as a project-worthy endeavor. As a result, they often resort to traditional brainstorming methods, which have been shown to be ineffective and rarely yield viable solutions. Without a structured approach, we tend to address symptoms rather than root causes, potentially creating more problems than we solve. The Project Creation Assistant guides you through organizing your thoughts and defining your challenge, setting the foundation for a successful problem-solving journey….

Answering the question, “Does everyone want to be profitable?”, depends on the goals set by the CEO and executives of the company regarding the desired outcomes from the systems used by the firm to drive profitability. In most cases, it is up to the managers and their engineers to generate profitability from the existing systems that are integral to the organization’s production of products and services. These products and services are then valued by customers, who pay a cost to the company in exchange for them. Challenges and Solutions The challenge that engineers and managers face alike is the complexity…

When a task force is working on a problem, it is important to understand the context and objectives of the project. This understanding helps the team approach the problem more effectively and efficiently. Furthermore, when utilizing AI assistance throughout the project, the context and objectives become even more crucial, as the quality of AI’s output depends on the data provided. This is exactly why we have introduced the context for every project. Understanding the Context Understanding the context of a problem-solving project involves gaining insights into the industry, department, and goal of the project. It allows the task force to…

RCA thinking is a tool for learning how the system operates and creating solutions to problems.

At PRIZ Guru, we understand the challenges engineers face when it comes to finding relevant information to solve complex problems. Hours of searching through countless articles, purchasing resources, and sifting through irrelevant content can be frustrating and time-consuming. How often have you needed just a single paragraph from an article, wasting precious time in the process? We recognized the need for a more efficient solution. That’s why we are thrilled to announce the launch of our expanded AI assistant. With its advanced capabilities, our AI assistant is here to revolutionize the way you work on your projects. Whether you need…

At PRIZ, we are dedicated to accelerating the problem-solving process with the help of our AI assistant. In line with this vision, we are excited to announce a significant enhancement to the PRIZ Platform – the integration of an AI assistant specifically designed to assist in defining problem statements. With this latest development, you now have the ability to streamline the process of building a problem statement, almost putting it on autopilot. While our goal is not to fully automate the process, our AI assistant provides conversational support. It acts as a collaborative participant, engaging in conversations with engineers to…

One of the challenges our users face with the Perception Mapping tool is collecting perceptions from other people. Usually, it requires people to be physically present in the same room or on a conference call, and even then, coming up with good perceptions takes a lot of time. Eventually, it wastes the majority of the meeting dedicated to finding the blockers, leading to the need for scheduling another meeting to continue. We have done our homework and concluded that this is a problem worth solving to make time more valuable. With the latest update to Perception Mapping, you can now…

The Perception Mapping tool has long been renowned for its ability to help engineers to find blockers. The process of finding blockers results in a list of perceptions and their blocking ranks. The higher the rank, the more impacting the blocker is. These are the ones that should be resolved first. Without it, you won’t be able to “move a needle”. But, what should we do when we end up with many perceptions with the same blocking rank? Now, by combining Perception Mapping with our popular Round Robin Ranking, you can effortlessly determine which blocker deserves your immediate attention and…
