SCAMPER is a method to help generate ideas for innovation. It is an easy variant of the types of “analytic” idea generation methods like TRIZ and SIT. SCAMPER boils the sets of rules of TRIZ and SIT down to just 7:
- S = Substitute
- C = Combine
- A = Adapt
- M = Magnify
- P = Put to Other Uses
- E = Eliminate (or Minify)
- R = Rearrange (or Reverse)
