Abstract
New innovations is unavoidable to persist in current world. Industries operate today, in a very challenging and complex environment with rapidly changing demanding and conditions. Thus, to play a significant role in the global market, it is essential to increase the impactful innovations, productivity and competitiveness in the development of new products. Therefore, collaboration between user and designer play important role in this situation. This perception brings innovative dimension for usability evaluations to accomplish the user’s needs. To meet current requirements, usability needs to be improved to strengthen its impact. To achieve this, usability needs to be improved with a very effective model. Deep analysis is carried out to identify suitable model. TRIZ model identified as most appropriate collaborator for impactful effects. This paper presents a suggestion that describes how Usability can improve their outcomes with TRIZ.
