Learning Launch 

 Challenge 

 Spare parts are fundamental to maintaining the availability of production trucks in the mining   industries . Unfortunately , sourcing in remote areas of Africa often remains difficult . Indeed , parts   must be ordered and then transported through a long supply chain where delivery time is often to   the detriment of the requesters . Even worse , if the right part is not delivered , the entire production   schedule often has to be revised . 

 As a supplier of spare parts , mainly serving mining companies in the West African zone , I have an IT   platform that centralizes my spare parts servicing activity . My challenge is to create a simple   technology that buyers from different companies can easily access considering that most mining   companies operate in remote areas with limited access to Internet services . This project includes the   IT staff , as well as the purchasers and the method preparers of the SOMA partner company 's engine   maintenance services . 

 The project is managed by volunteer time on a schedule of no more than 10 weeks for our   development team to deliver a prototype software solution . Our partners from the mining company   SOMA will help us structure the first prototype of the technology so that we can test it with our main   users . 

 Once the prototype has been developed , our technical sales team will conduct the first marketing   study . 

 Selection 

 After consultation , our team decided to use the learning launch tool . The idea was to develop an   effective , yet simple - to - use technology to make it easier for users to test searches . In collaboration   with method preparers and SOMA buyers , we conducted several conceptual thinking activities and   developed a software prototype that will help us go through an iterative process that will allow us to   improve our solution idea with teams from other mining companies in the sub - region . 

 Application 

 Our first launch was to introduce a web application , available through the internet to allow all   customers to connect to it from anywhere in the world . This application presented functionalities   allowing to search for spare parts from references and providing synoptic and functional diagrams of   the different parts . The aim was to ensure that by using part numbers to search information in a   database previously supplied by the parts manufacturers , operators would now order the right spare   parts . But after a long observation , we realized that : 

 - Firstly , the cost aspect was missing , which was of great interest to buyers in order to align with   budgets . 

 - Secondly , most customers would have difficulty using the platform because of their geographical   location , which limited or required them to have an internet connection due to their location . 

 We spent the next 3 days with our project team to improve our prototype by integrating the cost of   parts into it . We worked on several alternatives and finally decided to use a web application ,   available from DVDs that could be used offline on desktops . 

 Insight 

 By applying the learning tool , we have designed and tested our solutions . Thanks to this process , we   were able to improve our web application to meet user expectations . This process showed us that   our method preparers and buyers were more comfortable with the second web application . Our   technical sales department used the test results to review our strategic direction . In the future , our   company will adopt similar approaches to offering products and services . 

 Approach 

 The learning launch is the right tool for our company . As a team , we need to review the knowledge   gained from our initial launches and integrate this information into future launch designs . This allows   us to effectively address and highlight solutions . In the future , launch designs will project themselves   through the knowledge highlighted , as well as the progress made to get closer to a convincing out - of- the - box solution .
