Demand identification
Having defined a focus area to address collectively, the common need of the dedicated partners/collaborators is identified. Here the interaction with other stakeholders increase to deepen and detail the understanding of crucial components. This chapter includes templates to investigate the boundary conditions of the challenge. By completing this step you will have gained an even deeper understanding of your and other’s unmet needs. You will also provide value to these unmet needs and learnings from best practises. The quality is ensured by utilizing competencies from a multi-functional stakeholder perspective. Within the CoP resources are shared and knowledge is built.
