Solution Overview

Problem

Current quality analysis in organizations is primarily conducted on an individual project basis, leading to inconsistent quality measures and duplication of efforts across different projects within the same department or organization, resulting in increased spending and non-uniform software and hardware systems.

Innovation Solution

A quality platform system that analyzes software or hardware systems to determine necessary quality enhancements, prioritizes adjustments, and provides a plan for implementation on a global level within an organization, ensuring consistent quality measures across all projects.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If quality analysis is performed on an individual project basis, then the current project can be enhanced, but quality measures become inconsistent across different projects and duplication of efforts occurs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality enhancementVSAvoidquality measure consistency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges individual project quality analyses into a unified organizational quality platform. The system collects quality data from multiple projects, identifies common quality issues across the organization, and provides standardized quality enhancement recommendations that apply consistently across all projects, thereby resolving the contradiction between project-specific enhancement and organizational consistency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The quality platform system serves multiple functions: it analyzes individual projects, identifies organization-wide quality patterns, determines universal quality enhancement strategies, and provides standardized recommendations. This multi-functional approach ensures that quality measures are both project-relevant and organizationally consistent, eliminating duplication of efforts.

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

2Ease of manufacture

If individual IT specialists provide solutions for quality enhancement, then specific project defects can be addressed, but duplication of efforts and increased spending occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality enhancement implementationVSAvoidspending
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The quality platform enables self-service quality enhancement by automatically analyzing project data, identifying quality issues, and generating standardized recommendations without requiring repeated manual analysis by IT specialists. The system serves itself by collecting data, processing it through predefined quality models, and producing actionable insights, thereby reducing redundant human effort and associated costs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes the parameters of quality analysis from ad-hoc, manual assessments to systematic, data-driven evaluations using standardized quality models. By transforming quality enhancement from a manual process to an automated one based on configurable quality parameters, the system reduces duplication of efforts and optimizes resource allocation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Productivity

If quality enhancement measures are applied without global coordination, then project-specific issues are addressed, but non-uniform software and hardware systems result

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequality enhancement efficiencyVSAvoidsystem uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments quality analysis at multiple levels: individual project level for specific issues, departmental level for pattern recognition, and organizational level for standardized strategies. This segmentation allows the system to address project-specific problems while maintaining overall consistency through hierarchical coordination, ensuring uniformity across the organization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The quality platform implements feedback mechanisms that continuously monitor quality enhancement implementations across projects. By collecting feedback on the effectiveness of quality measures and comparing results across projects, the system identifies patterns and adjusts recommendations to ensure uniformity while maintaining efficiency in quality enhancement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback
