Abstract

Organisations and individuals maximise the likelihood of success through managing innovation. Ensuring the high quality of both process and product, sustaining and exploiting innovations creates value to the stakeholders. In this paper we explore the nexus of maturity, quality and valorisation. We consider that the growth of organisational maturity changes the nature and role of quality management and characterises valorisation. We propose a Valorisation model based on the INCISIV framework (which incorporates the PDCA Deming Improvement cycle) and the CMMI model for understanding, evaluating, measuring and improving the valorisation process, and the valorisation results.
