ProInnovate is developing a problem solving framework and applying technology solutions to the complexity of organisation. Reduced complexity delivers productivity, capacity to change and an environment for innovation.
ProInnovate is a pre-revenue lean startup based in Scotland. Supported by Scottish Enterprise and the University of Edinburgh through EPIS, it is currently engaged in preparing the first commercial product "Manage Us" for launch in the second half of 2010. This is the first in a pipeline of over twenty products.
Businesses of all sizes face the difficulties of an intensely complex and rapidly changing operating environment. Large organisations struggle to deliver change and innovation around large and complex centrally managed IT systems. New startups find themselves overwhelmed by the knowledge required to put a baseline technological infrastructure in place.
ProInnovate's framework for problem solving is both new and nothing new. It's nothing new because it is based on the best ideas from leading theories of organisational productivity, efficiency and strategic thinking. It's new because it helps to integrate these ideas, addressing the contradictions, highlighting the tensions and ultimately making them practical and usable.
Technologically ProInnovate is using the very latest robust and scalable software tools to produce systems that can expand to meet the demands of millions of users worldwide. Cloud hosted, web delivered software as a service.
The customer focus is on simplicity and ease of use anywhere. Where our competitors sell functionality we sell simplicity. Where they offer all encompassing systems, we offer lightweight highly focused tools. We expect a customer to be able to start using our tools within minutes of the need arising, whether they are at work or on the move.
