Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional project initiation processes involving multiple stakeholders are time-consuming due to the need for extensive human feedback and data collection through meetings, which can be inefficient and labor-intensive.

Innovation Solution

An ML-assisted system that uses a persona database and Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate an interactive user interface for project initiation, dynamically presenting contextually relevant questions based on user input, and updating the interface with unanswered questions based on LLM assessments to streamline data collection.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional workflow tools are used to collect stakeholder input through meetings, then comprehensive stakeholder feedback can be obtained, but the process becomes time-consuming and labor-intensive

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecompleteness of stakeholder feedbackVSAvoidtime required for data collection
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by having the LLM automatically generate questions, assess responses, and identify unanswered questions without requiring manual intervention from project managers or stakeholders. The system serves itself by autonomously managing the data collection process and adapting questions based on previous responses.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical system of manual meeting scheduling, question drafting, and response tracking with an automated LLM-based system. The LLM generates contextually relevant questions, assesses stakeholder responses, and dynamically updates the question list, eliminating the need for manual coordination and reducing time investment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Adaptability or versatility

If multiple stakeholders are involved in project initiation meetings, then diverse perspectives can be captured, but the complexity and number of interactions increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecoverage of different stakeholder perspectivesVSAvoidcomplexity of data collection process
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The LLM serves multiple functions simultaneously: generating questions, assessing responses, identifying unanswered questions, and adapting questions to specific stakeholders. This multi-functional approach consolidates what would otherwise require multiple separate processes and tools into a single unified system, reducing overall complexity while maintaining comprehensive stakeholder coverage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback loops where the LLM assesses each stakeholder's responses and uses this information to dynamically generate follow-up questions. This feedback mechanism ensures that diverse perspectives are captured effectively while automatically managing the complexity of multi-stakeholder interactions through intelligent question adaptation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If manual review and feedback incorporation is performed, then quality control can be maintained, but productivity decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality of project initiation documentVSAvoidspeed of document generation
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The LLM performs self-service by automatically reviewing stakeholder responses, generating appropriate questions, and identifying gaps in the data collection process. This eliminates the need for manual quality control while maintaining high standards, as the LLM continuously monitors and adjusts the collection process to ensure comprehensive and accurate information gathering.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system maintains continuous operation by automatically generating and assessing questions without interruption. The LLM continuously monitors responses, generates follow-up questions, and updates the collection process in real-time, ensuring that quality control is maintained while productivity is enhanced through uninterrupted automated processing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #20Continuity of useful action
