Innovation Management at Orange Business

This initiative aimed to redefine internal innovation processes, improve the organization and management of innovation, and effectively implement the new operational model for innovation.

our response

Defining and Optimizing Innovation

Dynergie a initié cette démarche stratégique en deux volets chez Orange Business.

First, we structured the innovation management framework, which included interviews with innovation leaders from major corporations and an in-depth benchmarking analysis to identify trends and best practices. This resulted in tailored recommendations for a customized innovation strategy.

Deuxièmement, Dynergie s'est focalisé sur le 'Customer Innovation Center' à la demande d'Orange Business. L'approche a inclus une analyse fine des besoins des utilisateurs internes. Des ateliers ont été organisés pour définir clairement la vision et l'organisation du centre. Enfin, un plan de structuration détaillé a été élaboré."

The results

Development of a White Paper on Innovation

Creation of a white paper summarizing the approaches, tools, and trends in innovation management at large companies.

Strategic Vision of the Innovation Center

Development of a clear vision and implementation plan for the Orange Business Innovation Center, highlighting its value and accessibility.

Plan for the Organization of the Innovation Center

Development of a strategic action plan to organize the innovation center, including a defined service catalog.

In conclusion.

Cette approche en deux phases de Dynergie a transformé la structure de l'innovation chez Orange Business, établissant une direction d'innovation robuste et un centre d'innovation dynamique, soutenant ainsi une croissance innovante et durable.
