“…Some researchers proposed different tools to support this important stage in the innovation process which is the ideation stage. The combination of teams existing technical knowledge and limited domain-specific knowledge provokes more original and diverse ideas, which confirms there is a creative value in the combination of KDD (knowledge discovery from databases) with teams' existing knowledge [6].…”

“…Some researchers proved that access to large databases of information can overwhelm users, in their innovation process, and tend them to return to known solutions Extract, classify and archive content ECM which decrease the creativity [6]. To avoid this situation, instead of presenting the search results to participants as a list of contents with the metadata related, we are proposing a relational analysis between these contents to display them in a graph which may help them.…”

Enterprise Content Management tool (ECM) is defined as the technologies, tools, and methods used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content. Using ECM in the ideation step of the innovation process may enhance the creativity of users to create new knowledge. In this paper, we discuss how to access this large amount of information efficiently without overwhelming users which may decrease their creativity. The purpose of this work is to avoid this situation by replacing the classical representation of ECM results with a graphical representation using graph theory. The advantages of this approach for visualizing and analyzing the connection between contents are discussed.

“…The variety of usages that could be made from data is often emphasized, for example through the 20 contributions of the special issue of the Journal of Mechanical Design (Kim et al, 2017) covering topics as various as discovering future design and technological opportunities thanks to patent mining techniques, modelling complex parts of the body in new manners, giving new insights on the critical functions to be included in the design of new products and services. Literature in design also more specifically reports on the beneficial use of data in the concept development phase of the design process (Escandón-Quintanilla et al, 2018;Bertoni, 2020). The transformation of data into usages is often described through the "Data Information Knowledge Wisdom" hierarchy (Rowley, 2007) or more recently the "data-information-knowledge" chain (Abbasi et al, 2016).…”

Transforming data into added-value information is a recurrent issue in the context of “big data” phenomenon, as new sources of data become increasingly available. This paper proposes to offer a fresh look on how data and added-value information are linked through the design of specific models. This investigation is based on design theory, used as an analysis framework, and on a historical example in the Earth science field. It aims at unveiling the reasoning logic behind the design process of models combining data science and domain knowledge in specific ways, especially involving not only knowledge about the physical phenomena but also on the measuring instrument itself. More specifically, this paper shows how specific efforts on exploring the originality of the new instrument compared to existing ones can result in designing performant models to transform new sources of data into information. This also suggests several important competencies to be involved in the model-design process: (1) a detailed understanding of the limitations of existing models (2) the ability to explore both the originality of the new source of data compared to existing ones (3) the ability of leveraging independent data sources.

Big data could be a "gold mine" for creativity if it is used in the proper way, to this aim, we propose to use content management solutions to improve innovation process. Using ECM (enterprise content management) in the ideation step of the innovation process may enhance the creativity of users to create new knowledge. Organizations have access to multiple information from internal and external sources. This information is present everywhere in the workplace and represent an interesting source of creativity. The access to large databases of information can overwhelm users, in their innovation process, and tend them to return to known solutions which will decrease the creativity. To avoid this situation, we will be coupling the ECM with graphical tools. In this paper, we propose a detailed approach on how to use graphical tools with the ECM by applying the analysis properties from the graph theory in order to be more creative. Then, we present a case study where a team participating in an innovation competition uses our proposed approach at the ideation stage to enhance their creativity. Indeed, we will test this approach to evaluate its effectiveness in the in the 24H innovation competition context.
