Areflection on and Suggestion of Service Design Processes

Background: Along with increasing discussions of Service Design (SD), designers’ perspective, approach, activities, and methods for service innovation have been explored as a design-led contribution to service innovation. SD processes have also been developed, strongly informed by general design processes. However, there is a lack of investigations taking a critical view on these SD processes in light of their relation to organizational innovation practices. Methods: A literature study on SD and service innovation processes was conducted to confront SD activities from the design perspective with organizational innovation activities from the business perspective. This enabled the SD processes and activities to be contextualized within the organizational innovation process, suggesting potential limitations of SD processes. Moreover, the opinions of 7 SD experts in UK SD agencies were integrated with the theoretical insight. Results: As a way to guide the development of future SD process frameworks, three agendas, an action plan, and an analytical framework have been suggested. Through the construction of these conceptual tools, this study argues for a shift of an approach to innovating SD processes from the activity-centered description of a design perspective, approach, and activities toward the outcomeoriented demonstration of them in the context of organizations. Conclusions: This study forms a basis for the development of SD processes that better reflect the organizational process and practices. Although SD has been growing as an arena for design research and practice, its activities and approaches can have a significant and transformational value only when they are linked to organizational innovation practice.

Index analysis of differentiation of the Russian Federation regions on the basic indicators of innovation activity

The most important strategic direction of the development of the Russian economy is to increase the innovation activity of enterprises and organizations. Despite the positive trends in the sphere of increasing the innovation activity of enterprises and organizations in the country, the creation and introduction of advanced technological innovations in production, low innovation activity of organizations remains in most regions. Problems of innovative development of the regions, as well as the methodology of statistical research of innovation activities are considered in the works of domestic scientists (M.Arkhipova, A.Varshavsky, L.Gokhberg, T.Dubrova, S.Ilyenkova, V.Kuznetsov, N.Sadovnikova and others), but the comparative analysis of innovation activity in the regions based on the index method was not carried out. The purpose of this article is to develop a methodology of applying the index method for a comparative analysis of the innovation development in the regions of the country. The methodology represents an algorithm for comparative analysis of key indicators that characterize innovation activity with a similar average Russian indicator: the proportion of organizations that carry out technological innovation in the total number of organizations surveyed; shares of the shipped innovative goods, works, services in the total volume of the shipped products; share of costs for technological innovation in the total volume of the shipped products. The uneven socio-economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation causes the preservation of regional differentiation in terms of the level of innovation activity. In the process of research, based on the index method, the constituent entities of the Russian Federation were grouped according to the main indicators of innovative development; the leading regions and lagging regions were identified according to the main characteristics of innovation activity. According to the data for 2015, it was revealed that there is a very low innovation activity of organizations in 33 regions of the country (more than twice as below the similar level countrywide). Low innovation activity (10–50% less than the average Russian indicator) is observed in 24 regions of the Russian Federation. Increased innovation activity of organizations, exceeding the average Russian level by 10% or more, is noted in 17 regions of the country.

A Complementary Relationship between Networks and Organizational Innovation Activities: Evidence from Chile

The purpose of this study is to investigate the complementary relationship between networks and organizational innovation (OI) activities. This empirical study uses mainly probit and OLS estimation methods on 1760 Chilean SMEs. The regression analysis reveals that market- related networks (with customers, suppliers and competitors) positively influence the SMEs OI performance. Moreover, a complementary relationship between market-related networks and OI is found. This indicates that market-related networks and OI are economic activities that are highly interrelated and significantly improve the SMEs performance. Overall, the findings suggest that Chilean SMEs are engaged in market-related networks than through networks with technological institutions for improving OI and productivity performance. This indicates that higher cost of innovation; skills shortage and lack of access to credit reduce OI and productivity performance. The policy implications of this empirical study are that Chilean SMEs need to develop strong linkages to market-related agents (e.g., customers, suppliers) and with technological institutions (e.g., universities) for higher OI and productivity performance.JEL Codes: JELO3

Innovative activity of organizations as the basis for the formation of innovative economy in the regions of the Russian Federation

A necessary prerequisite for the growth of the national economy in modern conditions, namely the development of production and the increase in the competitiveness of domestic goods on the domestic and foreign markets, is the increase in the importance and effectiveness of the use of the scientific and technological potential of the country and the region. It is necessary to understand that the efficiency of functioning, both of the national economic system and of its regions, depends on how efficiently the innovative transformations are carried out. At the same time, it is on how successfully regional systems are transformed from the point of view of innovative processes, and the overall picture of the formation of an innovative economy in the country will be formed. Thus, innovative activity of organizations is an important condition for the development of the region's innovative economy, which can be characterized by a number of indicators. Among them we generalize – resource indicators of innovation activity, process indicators of innovation activity, effective indicators of innovation activity in the region. The analysis and calculation of innovative activity of organizations of the federal districts of the Russian Federation considered in the article makes it possible to differentiate the regions of Russia into different types according to the level of innovative development with the goal of making sound management decisions in the part of forming a regional innovation economy. At present, there are many problems in the formation of an innovative regional economy in the Russian Federation, for example, large financial costs, lack of scientific and technical base and reserve capacities in the regions, undeveloped legislation in the field of innovation, excessive centralization of companies, authoritarian management style, lack of interaction between business entities and Etc. Using the methodology for calculating the innovative development of regions described in the article, it is possible to determine the ways of solving the above problems.

The study of the innovation environment, as an object of management: terminological aspects

In this article, problem zones of the current stage of the development of the Russian Federation's economy are considered, the solution of which presupposes a profound modernization of the socio-economic system and its innovative transformation.

Service innovation: Inward and outward related activities and cooperation mode

Knowledge of how customers co-create value, the way that suppliers and providers co-produce services, and how research and development centers and universities transfer technologies is becoming increasingly important to scholars' understanding of service innovation. This paper presents an analysis of the relationship between inward and outward innovation activities in service organizations and their modes of innovation, using network innovation premises and an extended innovation model. Empirical data from retail, health and education sector service organizations show the existence of a relationship between the degree of development of the inward innovation process and the degree of development of outward innovation activities. The majority of service organizations have innovation processes with an orientation toward customers and suppliers rather than other service network members, and leading service organizations follow a path that the literature defines as oriented toward the service value network. Findings lead to implications of how innovation managers could develop their internal innovation capacity to balance inward and outward activities properly.
