Every great project
generates knowledge.
Most organisations
never see it again.

The industry moves. People move faster. Innovation intelligence built over years disappears in months. This is the challenge no one names — but everyone pays for.

the.finding

80%

of innovation risk is created
during Concept Design.

Most organisations don't discover this until it's expensive. By then the decisions have been made, the momentum is set, and the knowledge that could have changed the outcome is gone.

the.cycle

People move.

The knowledge they carried — lessons from what worked, what failed, what surprised them — leaves when they do. It was never written down. It was never connected to anything.

Projects close.

Each project generates signals. Ideas tested, approaches abandoned, patterns noticed. Most are never captured. None are connected to the next project that would need them.

Structures change.

Reorganisations reset institutional memory. Teams reform, priorities shift, and the intelligence accumulated over years is quietly lost in the transition. The cycle starts again.

the.system

Built to close the gap,
before the cost arrives.

v56.ims is a structured management system for innovation intelligence. Not a tool for generating ideas — a system for keeping them.

0.1

Pipeline

Surface and structure innovation signals at the moment they emerge — before they disappear into delivery noise. Every signal tracked, staged, and connected.

0.2

Score

V-Index and InnDex give teams a shared language for evaluating ideas — worth before deployment, readiness after. Human-entered, AI-supported. Not a black box.

0.3

Knowledge base

Every deployed innovation, scored and searchable. The organisation's compounding asset — built one entry at a time, available to every team that comes after.

0.4

Discovery

Connect to the wider AEC innovation database. What Hive56 and TrueTrack have validated, available to your org in a single search. Bring the outside in.

the.questions

What v56.ims is, in plain terms.

What is v56.ims?
An innovation management system built for AEC organisations. It captures innovation signals as they emerge, scores them, and keeps the knowledge in one place so it compounds across projects instead of leaving with the people who created it.
How does v56.ims relate to ISO 56001?
ISO 56001 is the international standard for innovation management. v56.ims structures the information flow the standard asks for, so ideas, decisions and outcomes are tracked in one system rather than scattered across inboxes and project folders. It includes a rapid maturity diagnostic that benchmarks your practice against the framework.
What does v56.ims actually do?
Four things. A pipeline that surfaces and stages innovation signals as they emerge. Scoring with V-Index and InnDex for a shared read on worth and readiness. A searchable knowledge base of deployed innovations. And discovery that connects your organisation to the wider AEC innovation database.
What is the difference between V-Index and InnDex?
V-Index reads an idea on its potential value before deployment. InnDex reads it on proof and readiness once it has been put to work. Both are human-entered and AI-supported, not a black box.
Who is v56.ims for?
Innovation leads and senior teams in AEC organisations who are serious about keeping what their projects learn. It is currently in early access.
