Solve Enterprise Innovation’s 
Biggest Challenges

Strategy Without Execution
Strategic plans often fall flat without visibility into how work gets done. Accolade connects long-term innovation strategy to real-time execution.
Disconnected Teams and Tools
Innovation spans departments—but most tools don’t. Accolade creates a shared environment where strategy, resources, and results stay in sync.
Manual Planning and Governance
Slide decks and spreadsheets create bottlenecks. Accolade replaces manual planning with governed workflows and real-time data.
Resource Bottlenecks
Even the best ideas fail without the right people and funding. Accolade helps you plan, allocate, and adapt resources proactively.

Purpose-Built Capabilities for Enterprise Innovation Management

Accolade offers integrated capabilities that cover every stage of the innovation lifecycle, from strategic planning and idea development to execution, portfolio oversight, and resource allocation.

Each capability is purpose-built and configurable to address a specific challenge, and together they create a single, connected system that adapts to your enterprise’s goals.

Accolade modules don’t operate in isolation — every capability is connected through Accolade Core, so decisions made in one area automatically inform planning, execution, and reporting everywhere else.
