Solution Overview

Problem

Large corporations face difficulties in collecting and provisioning data for technical processes, leading to inaccurate assessments and inefficient bidding processes, particularly in scenarios where physical events impact operational continuity.

Innovation Solution

A computer system that receives technical process data from experts, validates it against ISO standards, and uses blockchain for distributed communication, enabling accurate data presentation and bidding processes by associating technical process data with bidding data.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If technical process data is collected from multiple experts and validated against ISO standards, then measurement precision and reliability improve, but device complexity and loss of time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of technical process dataVSAvoidcomplexity of data collection system
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the data collection process by assigning specific technical process areas to individual experts, each responsible for collecting and validating data within their domain. This segmentation allows multiple experts to contribute specialized knowledge independently, improving overall measurement precision without requiring a monolithic complex system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The computer system performs multiple functions including data collection from various experts, validation against ISO standards, storage in database, and facilitation of bidding processes. This multi-functionality consolidates what would otherwise require separate systems into a single platform, improving precision while managing complexity through integration.

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

2Measurement precision

If technical process data is collected from multiple experts with specialized knowledge, then measurement precision improves, but loss of time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccuracy of technical impact assessmentVSAvoidtime for data collection and validation
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements preliminary validation rules and ISO standard criteria before data submission, allowing experts to prepare and pre-validate their data locally. This preliminary action reduces the time required for centralized validation while maintaining measurement precision through standardized checks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system provides immediate feedback to experts regarding data completeness and compliance with ISO standards during the data entry process. This real-time feedback mechanism allows experts to correct issues promptly, reducing iterative validation time while ensuring high measurement precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If blockchain is used for distributed communication and data verification, then reliability and security improve, but device complexity and energy consumption increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveintegrity of technical process dataVSAvoidenergy consumption of blockchain operations
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements blockchain technology selectively for critical data verification points rather than all data transactions. By applying blockchain only where maximum reliability is needed (e.g., final data validation and bidding outcomes), the system achieves high integrity while minimizing energy consumption associated with comprehensive blockchain implementation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

This disclosure relates to computer systems for managing technical process data. An input port receives technical process data from multiple technical process experts, wherein the technical process data relates to a technical impact of one or more physical events on a continuity of a technical operation. A database stores the technical process data. A processor validates the technical process data and initiates a bidding process. The processor further physically presents the technical process data in the bidding process, receives bidding data from multiple bidding client computer systems associated with multiple bids, selects one of multiple bids based on the bidding data, and stores an association between the bidding data associated with the one of the multiple bids and the technical process data on the database.
