Sopheon Helps Businesses Respond to COVID-19 Disruptions

Sopheon releases the Accolade Disruption Response Toolkit to view, assess and analyze risks and opportunities based on impacts to consumer demand and available production capacity, supply chains, distribution networks, workforce, and capital. Product and project portfolios can quickly and easily be assessed, recommendations for actions collected, and multiple scenarios then presented for informed executive decision making.

“When I saw this new toolkit, I realized that we simply hadn’t considered the impacts of the disruption in this way,” said Heidi Akkerman, senior innovation manager at Hormel Foods. “It gave me a fresh perspective on how we could be looking at this.” 

The Accolade software is a decision-support platform that has been successfully aiding companies like PepsiCo, Honeywell, P&G and BASF in the development of winning new products, business transformation and continual improvement in a market consistently disrupted by digitalization.

“Sopheon’s Accolade assists business in managing digital transformation and disruption,” stated Andrew Darley, director of research at finnCap, in a recent company note from the financial advisor and brokerage firm.1 “While the current crisis is a black swan, constant and rapidly evolving disruption is a feature of modern business, where Accolade helps structure and measure constructive strategic response.”

Sopheon will be hosting a candid, live conversation with a panel of innovation experts including Innovation Leader CEO and Co-Founder Scott Kirsner and Hain Celestial Group SVP R&D Jeff George on the topic “Crisis Response – Innovation Leaders Share.”
