Abstract

User Centred Innovation (UCI) has during the past decade developed into a widely acknowledged approach to innovation. Yet, in spite of plethora of methods and tools for conducting UCI, companies continue to struggle in relation to creating the desired effect UCI. In this paper, it is proposed that a lack of focus on the back-end of UCI is what is hampering the effect of the approach. Through a single case study it is demonstrated how opposing logics, different foci, and dissimilar working processes creates serious challenges in relation to implementation of UCI. The clarification of such challenges calls for a new focus in UCI research on interorganizational alignment and cross-functional collaboration.
