**3.2 Innovation process assessment model development**

In TIMS, the available norm parts have been analyzed. The analysis also included the draft (and not published) norm parts since one of the partners is a member of the ISO 56000 group and the developed assessment model should in future support also the work of this group.

Each norm part was analyzed and requirements and guidelines in the norm parts have been grouped into process areas and processes of the PAM (Process Assessment Model). A number of review meetings were necessary since norm parts were overlapping and a 1:1 mapping of chapters of the norm parts to processes did not solve the overlapping issues. The ISO 330xx series requires that each process has separate base practices and separate outcomes.

Also, the Swedish national norming institute published an innovation assessment norm [46], which obviously also used the ISO 33020 measurement framework as a concept and provided a lean set of questions as practices to check. In TIMS, we decided to elaborate a comprehensive set of practices to check and develop a complete set of base practices and outcomes.

This then resulted in an assessment model with processes and outcomes. The description of a PAM (Process Assessment Model), and the configuration of an assessment portal system Capability Adviser [7, 29, 30–32] with that assessment model.

This resulted in an integrated version 1 of the process assessment model and below **Table 1** shows the list of process areas and processes with purpose statements that have been configured in the assessment systems in 2022.

Each process has been described with a purpose statement, process outcomes, base practices (BPs), and mapping of base practices onto the process outcomes. Below you find the process *SIM.1 Strategic Intelligence Management Setup* as an example elaboration. The entire model can be accessed *via* a benchmarking portal, which is described in a later section of this paper.

Example:

Process Group: SIM (Strategic Intelligence Management)

Process ID: SIM.1

Process Name: Strategic Intelligence Management Setup

Process Purpose: The purpose of this process is to establish and define the key items of Strategic Intelligence Management.
