Step 1. Define the Framework: ROICE Formula
ROICE = (Return on Innovation × Convenience × Efficiency)
→ It measures how effectively a strategy converts innovation into sustained customer and business value with time- and cost-efficiency.
| Component | Definition | Unit | Strategic Leverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Innovation | Ability to create new customer value | Index 1–10 | Drives differentiation |
| Convenience | Ease for customers to access and benefit | Index 1–10 | Drives adoption |
| Efficiency | Resource and time productivity | Index 1–10 | Drives profit sustainability |
ROICE Score = (Innovation × Convenience × Efficiency) ÷ 1000
