In this paper we explore toolkits for user innovation and explain why and how they work. Research has consistently shown that new products and services must accurately respond to user needs if they are to succeed in the marketplace. However, it is often a very costly matter for firms to understand users’ needs deeply and well.

2001年7月1日 · User toolkits for innovation are specific to given product or service type and to a specified production system. Within those general constraints, they give users real freedom to innovate, allowing them to develop their custom product via iterative trial-and-error.

Toolkits for user innovation and design are integrated sets of product-design, prototyping, and design-testing tools intended for use by end users. The goal of a toolkit is to enable non-specialist users to design high-quality, producible custom products that exactly meet their needs.

In recent decades, toolkits for innovation have been increasingly used to integrate users into new product development processes. They promise to empower users in these processes by providing design freedom and iterative learning for the transformation of ideas into prod-ucts.
