Crowdsourcing

X
Module1
Crowdsourcing is a new and powerful way of engaging and mobilizing support for your ideas, projects and organization. Tessellate has developed several crowdsourcing strategies for energy firms, research organizations and companies. 
 
Our Philosophy
Tessellate gets good ideas to work faster. We approach Innovation and Strategic Sourcing with a few core assumptions. 
 
  1. Your challenges are hard to solve with current tools. Standard procurement or R&D strategies are not producing solution fast enough to make timely and meaningful impacts on performance.
  2. The people with solutions to your problem are not likely employed in your company. We need new ways to bring people together to find workable and innovative solutions. 
  3. Innovators are looking for new ways to work that gets their ideas tested, scaled and implemented faster. 
  4. Everyone wants to reduce waste, cost and the unintended impacts of production on people, environment and communities. 
  5. Open Innovation and Collaboration Models that reveal business challenges and needs to a number of innovation ecosystems are critical to successful corporate strategies. 
 
Our Approach: RE:Solve
Tessellate’s approach to finding solutions to meaningful challenges is both:
 
1. Targeted
We work with industry partners to define challenges that can be used to target and focus innovators on where solutions add the most value. We build partnerships with incubators, accelerators and investors that deploy stage gate processes that invite innovators to prove out their challenges and get them to market faster.
 
Contact us today to see how we can help your company create the innovations you need to address your challenges!
 
2. Emergent
Tessellate provide a tailored marketplace for innovations focused around its client's challenge areas. We invite innovators to post their projects and seek support for their innovative projects from prototype stages through to commercial product pre-sales.  
 
Crowdsourcing Platforms
Tessellate can deploy a crowdsourcing strategy on a number of platforms. We have experience developing custom enterprise platforms for the unique needs of large organizations with a large and known group of innovators or partners.
