A suite of tools for innovators to rapidly validate a compelling

value proposition for ideas worth prototyping

 Innovations come with inherent risks

The primary responsibility of the innovator is to

identify, mitigate and manage these risks in a
systematic manner, by taking adequate feedback
from the customers individually and from the
market as a whole.
#1 Product Innovation Hypothesis

The very crux of the innovation process is the, related to the most
fundamental aspects of the product innovation.

Product Innovation Hypothesis Canvas helps the innovators to

summarise cogently and succinctly the assumptions and to
continuously refine their hypotheses as they go through the process of
problem validation, customer discovery, crafting and testing value
proposition, and conceptualising MUP.

 FOREST DEPARTMENT

Sample: LapWing

● Due to the close proximity to forest regions, constant human & elephant conflicts leads to death of both human and elephant life.
● The farming lands in the region are regularly invaded by the elephant subjecting to heavy crop damages

● Forests are remote locations with limited accessibility

● Minimal or no Product training increases the adoption.People have limited or no technical skills/expertise.
● Installation/Integration: Zone coverage varies according to the different conditions and requires in-depth knowledge on the terrain.
● Resource/materials: many of the core forest areas lack proper network connectivity for long range communication. Being exposed to open
weather, and harsh conditions of forest can damage the products. Theft/damage is major concern.

● Data-driven planning can reduce, mitigate any loss of life or damages.

● NGOs can study the animal behaviours and work towards a long-term sustainable solution to avoid human-animal conflict.

● A real-time monitoring system with geotagging and notification features to provide early warnings by recognising the threat
potential of the animal.
● Geotagging and wireless data transfer to patrols to get real-time alerts on any threats before intrusions occur.

● The product requires a one-time investment of INR 50,000 on a gateway for its working at a radius of ~10 Kms
● Each camera module to be installed in the Forest Fringes costs INR 15,000
#2 Forge Innovation Rubric

To evaluate the potential of Product Innovations and to gauge the

progress of the Innovator, the FIR serves as the diagnostic tool
for continuously assessing the inherent risks, which can be
mitigated only through a process of validation.
Validation Risks associated with Product Innovations

1. Problem definition & Customer selection and specificity

2. Problem significance & magnitude

3. Motivation level of target customer to solve the defined problem

4. Quantification & its acceptance by the target customer of the value

proposition offered by the innovation

5. Adoption barriers that will prevent target customer from experiencing

the value proposition

#3 Problem Validation and Customer Discovery

The goal is to identify a problem worth solving - the right problem, the
right customer and to build the right product, which delivers a
compelling value proposition at a price the customer is willing-to-pay;

The innovator goes out into the real world and talks to the actual users
and customers to validate the scope, significance, magnitude and
incidence of the problem using the canvas.

#5 Value Proposition Canvas + Activity Guides

Value Proposition, in very simple terms is essentially how

much a product (solution) is worth to its target
customer.

The canvas helps the innovators to answer the most

critical questions “Why will the customer BUY your
product?” & “What are they willing to pay for this
product?”
