Ideas Management

The Ideas Management app gives you the opportunity to submit your own proposals and launch initiatives so that your company can constantly improve and keep innovating. Proposals and initiatives are recorded centrally in the Ideas Management app, linked to the relevant areas of the company and assigned directly to those responsible.

Proposals, derived tasks and initiatives

As part of Ideas Management, you can implement and monitor proposals, initiatives and the tasks derived from them:

• Proposal: A proposal is an idea for an innovation or improvement in your company, or an error or ambiguity that you have noticed in a certain area of the company.
• Derived tasks: Once a proposal has been submitted and the Ideas Management Committee has initiated its implementation, the main person responsible for the proposal can derive a task.

• Initiative: An initiative is a phase that is started specifically for a certain topic area and in which participants submit proposals on the topic. When the phase is over, the responsible persons and the Ideas Management Committee decide which proposals will be implemented.
