OVERVIEW OF SERVICES

AMG Innovation Accelerator focuses on working with what you already have, starting with what is currently in your development profiles.  We optimize the development across the organization and create dynamic, market leading messaging to maximize program impact.

What can you expect

Other consultants typically look to fit you into their models and focus on all the things your company is doing wrong.  We have been there. . . They come in, listen to what you say and your issues and shortcomings and repeat back the things you need to “fix”.  We have lived and succeeded in your shoes and we understand results and practical ideas should be the focus.  We work with your teams, with the assets and capabilities you already have and with your current processes.  The secret sauce is the evaluation that leads to alignment and dynamic strategies that create unbelievable, business changing results.

Where we focus our energy

The right products

We have found that in an average size company there is $1M or more in wasted resources and money, but more importantly the impact of lackluster products and wasted time is a significantly larger problem.

Optimized development

There are so many pitfalls and bad habits that companies fall into.  These waste time, money and company energy.  More importantly, they typically lead to the wrong products or products with the wrong features to maximize launches.  The results are, low impact products, missing market opportunities and opportunity cost of stronger programs.  Bottom line it reduces your bottom line.

Maximized market position

A huge reason for innovation not being as successful as it can be is companies fail to understand how to position them in the market.  Developing products is only part of the process, but the market, buyers, competition all play a part in how successful products will be.  Which means the market has a say in how much success you will have.

What to expect when going through the Accelerator Process

The model is broken down into 4 stages:  Discover, Draft, Deliver, Deploy.  Overall, the program lasts around 3-4 months depending on your team’s availability.

We start on honing and aligning executive goals, risks and background and move into interviews with your team, then do a full analysis of the existing assets and capabilities in R&D.  Our team researches the market, competitors and reviews your current process to understand where you can optimize every aspect of your innovation and development.

Through this process, your team is involved, but not taxed and we try to move quickly but at a pace the organization is comfortable with.

We then stay with your team to make sure the implementation is going well and make adjustments as necessary.
