Idea Decks

Solutions from Beyond

the Walls of your Business

Delivering ideas you never saw coming

The Challenge

When you are too close to the wall, all you can see is bricks. When you are far enough away from the wall, you can see beyond it to the horizon and opportunity.

In Short

Allow us to solve your strategic, product or service-related challenges. Our creative teams are experts at producing feasible ideas that change the game.

The Deck

Our Innovation Strategists work on a Challenge set by your business. We ensure the ideas we present back to you are relevant because we spend the majority of our time researching the problem. Once you have a well-defined problem, the solution becomes obvious.

The Deliverables & Timings

Define & Discover

We will have a Discovery session to co-create a brief together which will determine the goal of the Idea Deck and what specific outcomes the ideas must meet.

Time to complete: 2hrs – 1 day

Conduct Research

Before creating an Ideas Deck, we conduct research to understand the broad topic or problem that our strategists must solve. This typically starts with our team speaking with internal/external stakeholders and customers so we can gain different perspectives on the challenge.

Time to complete: 3 – 5 days

Assemble the team

Bring together a diverse group of creative strategists, designers, and subject matter experts who can bring unique perspectives and skills to the challenge.

Time to complete: 1 day

Ideate

Develop a wide range of potential solutions to address the challenge. Each idea is then researched and checked against the brief to ensure it meets the objectives set out by the client.

Time to complete: 5 days

Idea Selection

Evaluate the potential solutions generated during ideation and select the ones to take forward into mocking up based on feasibility, impact, and desirability.

Time to complete: 0.5 days

Develop the Idea Deck

Creation of a visually compelling and informative document that includes a summary of the business challenge, the selected ideas, and the recommended next steps for implementation.

All Ideas are fully illustrated by our artists so that they can be presented to you, and so that you can easily convey the ideas to the rest of the business.

Time to complete: 5 days

Present the Deck

Develop a compelling and engaging presentation that effectively communicates the selected ideas and recommended solutions. The presentation highlights the benefits and potential impact of the solutions, and gives you an opportunity to address any potential concerns or questions that you may have.

You select the idea(s), you’d like us to create a plan around for prototyping.

Time to complete: 3 days

Prototype Plan

Once the best ideas have been selected, we’ll develop a detailed prototype plan that outlines the specific steps, resources, and timeline needed to create a prototype or mockup of the solution(s).

The prototype plan identifies the materials, tools, and equipment needed to create the prototype, and define the roles and responsibilities of team members involved in the prototyping process.

The plan also establishes clear success criteria and metrics for evaluating the effectiveness of the prototype in addressing the business challenge.

Time to complete: 2 days

Prototype and Test

Create prototypes or mockups of the selected ideas and test them with customers or other stakeholders to refine and validate the concepts.

Note: This will be costed separately as it is dependent upon the ideas being prototyped.

Time to complete: TBC
