Creating a Better World

We at Pandora Consulting are heavily involved in innovation projects and have experience in new products ranging from medical devices to industrial equipment.

We facilitate the innovation process using a combination of brainstorming and creativity techniques. Our expert help has allowed some clients to make radical breakthroughs when developing new products.

Using our proprietary technique, the Design Breakdown Structure (DBS) we have seen development times reduced by 40% and unexpected innovations appear when developing "me too" products.

The Design Breakdown Structure is more than an ideation tool; it guides projects through the whole 'thinking process'. Hence, ideation, creativity, optioneering and more can be leveraged from a single tool. The other great advantage is that it aids collective decision making when multiple stakeholders are involved.

Design Breakdown Structure

To maximise the effectiveness of innovation Pandora has been involved with Massey University and Complete Design Services (New Zealand) in the development of the Design Breakdown Structure (DBS). The DBS is based around the fundamental human thinking process and provides a framework around which to apply other creativity tools, such as de Bono's Six Hats, TRIZ, Synetics, etc.

The DBS is implemented using InnovationWorks. A free shareware version can be found here [link].
