Sustaining Innovation
[S]uccessful innovators usually have a pretty clear idea of the kind of
competitive edges theyre seeking. Theyve thought long and hard about whats
practical in their particular businesses...

faculty of HBS), Tough-Minded Ways to Get Innovative, Harvard Business Review, May-June 1988

Who benefits from sustaining innovation?
How do you find good, concrete ideas? ... your best backdrop for spurring
innovation is knowledge--knowing your business cold. Good ideas most often
flow from the process of taking a hard look at your customers, your
competitors, and your business all at once. So, in looking for ways to innovate,
Id concentrate on:
Whats already working in the marketplace that you can improve on and
expand.
How you can segment your markets differently and gain a competitive
advantage in the process.
How your business system compares with your competitors.
...most of PepsiCos major strategic successes are ideas we borrowed from the
marketplace--often from small regional or local competitors.

Disruptive Innovation
In every market there is a rate of improvement that customers
can utilize or absorb
In every market there is a distinctly different trajectory of
improvement that innovating companies provide as theyintroduce new and improved products
Disruptive innovations dont attempt to bring better products
to established customers in existing markets. Rather, they
disrupt and redefine that trajectory by introducing productsand services that are not as good as currently available
products. But disruptive technologies offer other benefits
typically, they are simpler, more convenient, and less expensive
products that appeal to new or less-demanding customers

Shorter recap
When the initial basis of competition is
commodified, competition occurs along another
basis
When the old basis and the new basis require a
tradeoff, disruptive innovation can occur
The disrupting company can follow the existing
improvement path in the old basis until that basisis commodified then compete on the new basis--
then the sustaining company can no longer
compete
