How a Global Professional Services and Consulting Leader Automated Innovation Idea Evaluation with Lyzr

End-to-end idea evaluation, automated Standardized readiness scoring, every time Faster idea-to-decision turnaround
About the company

A global professional services and consulting firm's Innovation and Product team was running idea evaluation manually, collecting product and business ideas from employees and researching each one by hand across four evaluation pillars before assigning a readiness score. They partnered with Lyzr to automate the process end to end.

The challenge

The problem statement

01

Manual research across four evaluation pillars

Every submitted idea required in-depth manual research across Total Addressable Market (TAM), Scalability, Ecosystem Fit, and Competitive Intensity, with a single readiness score compiled by hand for each submission.

02

Evaluation quality varied and decisions slowed

Without a standardized process, the manual approach introduced variability in evaluation quality from one reviewer to the next, and the effort involved slowed down decision-making across the innovation pipeline.

03

Too much manual effort, not enough scale

The time required to research and score each idea by hand limited how many ideas the team could realistically evaluate, and left little room for the deeper strategic review the process was meant to support.

04

The approach

How Lyzr solved it

Lyzr built an orchestrated, multi-agent research superflow that automates the full idea evaluation lifecycle, from intake through research, scoring, and reporting.

Automated intake via chatbot

An AI-powered conversational chatbot guides employees step by step to capture the idea name, target customer, problem statement, solution description, USP, product fitment, risks, and assumptions, validating inputs in real time so nothing incomplete or ambiguous reaches the research stage.

Automated research across four pillars

Once an idea is submitted, the superflow triggers specialized agents that research TAM, Scalability, Ecosystem Fit, and Competitive Intensity, replacing hours of manual desk research with a single triggered workflow.

Standardized readiness scoring

A weighted scoring model converts research findings into pillar-level scores and a consolidated Idea Readiness Score, ensuring every idea is measured against the same criteria.

Structured report generation

The system compiles a report with an executive summary, pillar-wise insights, market opportunity assessment, risk indicators, and strategic recommendations for every idea, made available through a dashboard for the Innovation Review Team.

Results

The outcome

Idea evaluation became structured and consistent

Every idea now moves through the same defined pillars and the same weighted scoring model, replacing evaluation quality that previously varied by reviewer.

Turnaround time targeted for significant reduction

By automating research and report generation, the process is designed to move from submission to a reviewable, scored report far faster than the prior manual workflow.

More ideas can be evaluated without added analyst load

Automating research and scoring removes the manual bottleneck that previously capped how many ideas could realistically be reviewed in depth.

Reviewers get a structured go/no-go decision path

The Innovation Review Team now works from a standardized report and readiness score for every idea, supporting a structured go/no-go evaluation and clearer decisions on approval, incubation, or rejection.

Security

How Lyzr handled security

01

Enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure

Lyzr Agent Platform is SOC2, GDPR, and ISThe solution runs on AWS, with the backend containerized on ECS Fargate inside a VPC spanning public and private subnets, a WAF and load balancer at the edge, and IAM, Secrets Manager, and KMS governing access and credentials. O 27001 compliant, enabling secure deployment across enterprise environments.

02

Secure data handling

Research insights are aggregated through a governed AWS Bedrock AgentCore web gateway, and idea submissions, evaluation outputs, and readiness scores are stored in a centralized, secure database within private subnets.

03

Traceable outputs

The system maintains historical versions of every research report and score for auditability and traceability, so the Innovation Review Team can verify how each readiness score was reached.
