Title: Framework for designing idea management software systems
Author: Bezovski, Zlatko
Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive framework for designing Idea Management Software Systems (IMSS), addressing the evolving needs of organizations in managing innovation in the digital age. The framework integrates five key elements: strategic alignment, sources of ideas, ideators, idea processing, and infrastructure. By synthesizing insights from existing literature and incorporating emerging technologies, the framework offers a holistic approach for development od idea management systems that spans from inception to implementation. It emphasizes the importance of aligning innovation efforts with organizational strategy, leveraging diverse internal and external idea sources, and engaging participants through well-defined roles and gamification techniques. The framework incorporates AI-enhanced tools for idea evaluation and processing, ensuring efficient workflows and continuous feedback loops. It also addresses the critical role of scalable and secure infrastructure in supporting the entire idea management ecosystem. This integrated approach fills gaps in existing models by offering an end-to-end approach that is both comprehensive and adaptable to various organizational contexts. The paper discusses practical implications, potential implementation challenges, and directions for future research. By providing a structured yet flexible idea management, this framework enables organizations to foster innovation, engage stakeholders effectively, and transform ideas into tangible value in an increasingly competitive business landscape.
