The TRIZ method

TRIZ = "Teorija Reschenija Isobretatelskich Zadatsch" = "The Theory of
Inventive Problem Solving"

Quality innovations churning, that is the dream of every company. But
in reality, revolutionary ideas are often caused by accidents. The
question is: "Are we still always on the 'divine spark' need or is
there already a way to invent system?"

One answer is TRIZ - the "theory of inventive problem solving". In
English, use the term TIPS, the "Theory of Inventive Problem Solving"
means. Under TRIZ refers to a method that systematically investigated
trade-offs in order to overcome this by using innovative TRIZ tools.
Thus it is possible to overcome current system limitations and to find
unexpected solutions.

But not only the functionality of the TRIZ method in focus but also
benefits the companies and for entrepreneurs / inside. With the help
of TRIZ creativity of employees / internal encouraged "deadlocked
problems" is loosened and solutions generated. The company is
responding to the contradictions and conflicts that pose a problem,
formulates and overcomes them. Through the TRIZ method, the number and
quality of solutions is increased and thus brought about innovations.

TRIZ was invented over 50 years ago by the Russian scientist Genrich
Altshuller. Through patent analysis, he found that the trail follows
an invention to certain laws and rules. His basic idea was to resolve
technical issues without compromise. Starting from this basic
knowledge, he developed the core elements of the TRIZ methodology.
These were composed of systematics, knowledge, vision and analogy (see
the article "TRIZ tools).

Russian TRIZ experts spread the TRIZ method in the U.S., Israel, Japan
and Western Europe. Especially in the U.S., this new methodology has
been enthusiastically and constantly evolving. Meanwhile were already
on third Million patents examined for regularities. Today, TRIZ is a
comprehensive method for systematic problem solving with a wide range
of tools. Many well-known Western companies have already successfully
implemented TRIZ. In Austria, the application of this method is still
in its beginning.
