“…At the same time, the traditional steps of the innovation process (see e.g., [52,53]) were generally followed. The process was rather user-centred in order to understand the local context and operating environment, and participatory methods were utilized to capture the needs and, in particular, desires of the end users.…”

Abstract:Water is perhaps the most intertwined, and basic, resource on our planet. Nevertheless, billions face water-related challenges, varying from lack of water and sanitation services to hindrances on livelihoods and socio-economic activities. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) recognize the broad role that water has for development, and also call for the private sector to participate in solving these numerous development challenges. This study looks into the potential of frugal innovations as a means for the private sector to engage in water-related development challenges. Our findings, based on a case study and literature review, indicate that frugal innovations have potential in this front due to their focus on affordable, no-frills solutions. However, we also recognize pitfalls related to frugal innovations in the water sector. Although the innovations would, in principle, be sustainable, deficiencies related to scale and institutional structures may emerge. These deficiencies are linked to the importance of water in a variety of processes, both natural and manmade, as well as to the complexity of global production-consumption value chains. Increasing the innovations' sustainability impact requires broader acknowledgement of the underlying value chains and their diverse links with water. A holistic view on water can mitigate water-related business risks while increasing wellbeing on an individual level.

“…The process, as introduced by Braganza and colleagues (2017), is too linear and does not address the systemic complexity of data analysis and necessary stakeholder discourse. To cover these issues, structuring the analytics process can be linked to the classic linear innovation process (Cooper, 1990;Salerno et al, 2015).…”

“…So the biggest challenge lies in identifying a particular coniguration that can get employed and resource allocation as per the setup and the reasoning behind it in ensuring the overall success of the pioneering project [13]. In the public sector, the stake is the public, and the success of social sector projects is the resultant outcome regarding its implication on the life of an ordinary man.…”
