A Betty Blocks Case Study
The Dutch National Police, the largest employer in the Netherlands with over 65,000 employees, was managing innovation through an outdated Excel-based process that tracked more than 1,400 ideas. The system was hard to navigate, impossible to keep current, and left teams without real-time visibility, leading to duplicated projects and an adoption rate of just 20%.
The Dutch National Police worked with Betty Blocks to build an Innovation Portal with real-time data and social features for collaboration, transparency, crowdsourcing, and expert networking. The results included a rise in innovation success from 20% to 80%, a developer pool growing from 400 to 1,200 builders, development and maintenance costs cut by 50%, and more than 2,000 active users on the portal.
