9Research and development policy
in fiscal year 2010
• Review of research and development system･Cooperation with productive technique･Competitive edge improvement ofproductive technique･New productive techniqueestablishment･Manufacturing reduction in costs• Research and development infrastructure･Introduction examination of development
supporting tool (TRIZ)

Company

10

Background of policy•It is necessary to correspond by the research and development worker
and the production technology examination worker to whom a lot of themes were limited.

•The development speed from R&D to production (make to the business)is requested to be accelerated more and more.

•It is necessary to compete with a powerful major competitor in a lot of fields.

•The competitive edge strengthening and the personnel training are attemptedby going ahead of the competitor and taking the new method and the tool.

Having introduced TRIZ
ProblemLabyrinthianproblem a little

The conception
should leap.

Two or morefactors

Simplicity
Solution 1:
Prompt decision

Solution 2:
Examination･Factor analysis･Finding of another post

･Past experience and finding･Old-timer's knowledge
The problem is seen.
Immediately, it lights on a solution.

Two or more members
Discussion and examination< recognition sharing of situation >･Function attribute analysis･Factor analysis

Solution 3: TRIZ
･It solves it spending time.
･Technology of another industry
Invented conception<TRIZ>･Hint of conception by patent analysis･Invention technology of another fieldCompany

37

Having introduced TRIZ
• The entire problem can be understood because all project
members execute the function attribute analysis and the cause
result analysis and it share.
• The hint from the knowledge base like the inventive principles etc.
supports the idea putting out by using Goldfire.
• The member's sympathy is obtained for the solution.
• The member with a shallow experience is connected bottom-up.
• Time (training) is necessary for the technique acquisition. The inhouse consultant's (specialist) promotion is preferable.
• Results of a machine and an electric electron system device aremany. The improvement (read in a different way) matched to thechemistry or more system is being examined.

Company

38

Effect of Goldfire
Innovation support software"Innovation support environment that puts
one's knowledge" is offered, and theprocess of the innovation is supported.
【 support environment 】･Problem analysis and conception technique with results(TRIZ)･Knowledge retrieval function to use huge finding
accumulated in in-house and outside the company for problem
analysis and search of hint of solution･Collaboration function to match not only individual power
but also power of organization and to solve problem

JNC Ltd.

39

Effect of Goldfire• The huge finding (data) accumulated in in-house canbe used for the hint of the problem analysis andthe solution by using the knowledge retrieval
function. The use of the in-house accumulation datato boast of the history for 100 years or more andthe survey data that is accumulating recently
rapidly is enabled.
• "Knowledge base" can be customized. It can take theexistence data base on Web, and keep the open
database.
