4. Phase 1 – Awareness & Scope Development
“Synthesizing corporate needs with success factors identified in global
benchmarks, accessibility and capability of current solutions in the
market"

5. Awareness & scope development is a synthesis of desktop
studies, co-creation workshop and critical assessment
Review of relevant
strategic and operational
plans
Business unit meetings to

opportunities
Benchmarks, Case
Studies & Solution

Awareness & Inspiration
Workshop
Scope prioritization and

Baseline of Workinlot’s
work is company needs
and objectives. Effective
proxies for this can be:
strategy reports,
operational assessments,
strategic projects list, idea
submissions,
intrapreneuship projects*
etc.
Business unit leaders are
typically people who would
champion or mentor the
innovation projects which
are within their relative
fields.
We conduct 1-1 and group
interviews with such key
people to develop better
empathy towards the
requirements
Armed with full
understanding of the
pressing needs &
objectives, we prepare a
report which will act to
inspire the next steps:
• Global industry trends,
practices and case
studies
• Key functional initiatives
• Case studies of relevant
and notable startup
engagements
• Solution clusters
We organize a co-creation
workshop where the
organization can decide
where to play and why.
Outcome is a common
understanding and
assessment of potential
benefits.
We discuss with the
executives on which
solution clusters to focus
first.
