Disruptability should be used when there are many ideas and it is desirable to determine early on whether these ideas will develop into disruptive innovations and thus breakthrough innovations.
Thus, this methodology helps to make a statement at any point in the idea lifecycle about the potential of the idea and whether it is worth pursuing.
The most important thing here is to examine the origin of the idea in detail, i.e. the problem and search field from which it originates, in order to deduce the probability of whether a disruptive idea will develop. This is simply and transparently translated into a corresponding idea lifecycle diagram (the so-called disruptiveness scale), which helps to steer the ideas in order to adjust the strategic direction of your innovation management.
This forecasting method is very new on the market and uses the disruptiveness threshold to highlight which ideas are more likely to be disruptive and which may only bring incremental improvement, accordingly can be described as incremental.
