Executive Summary
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD is an EU-funded project focusing on fostering and facilitating online collaboration for
innovation among SMEs operating in the European agri-food ecosystem. The project aims to enhance the
service portfolio and practices of innovation intermediaries and SME support networks across Europe, by
providing them with a set of novel innovation support services, along with dedicated ICT tools to facilitate
their delivery, as well as e-learning modules on knowledge and skills necessary to support online
collaboration for innovation among agri-food SMEs.
Following a methodological approach that unfolds in three rounds, the current report presents all the
functional and technical characteristics of the final version of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools, as
developed up until the 3rd and final development stage. Including both web and mobile applications, these
tools aim to facilitate the efficient delivery of the novel innovation support services for agri-food SMEs
developed by the project. While innovation consultants are their main user group, they also target agri-food
SMEs, which may utilise them directly by themselves, provided they are familiar with the use of ICT
applications.
The ICT tools have been co-designed along with several agri-food stakeholders in the context of the INNO-4-
AGRIFOOD Co-creation Workshop, with the aim to offer meaningful and easy to use functionalities, not
overlapping but complementary to the tools already at the disposal of agri-food innovation consultants.
Based on the stakeholders’ valuable feedback that explicitly suggested the simplification of the tools that
were initially conceptualised by INNO-4-AGRIFOOD, we opted to offer simple and meaningful ICT tools that
will be highly usable and time efficient, requiring elementary ICT skills and adding no complexity or
superfluous workload to the users.
In particular, we focused mainly on developing a search engine specialised to the agri-food ecosystem, that
will help innovation consultants find targeted information for providing their services in an easy and efficient
manner. The rationale behind this was that, in order to support innovation among SMEs operating in the
agri-food value chain, innovation consultants need to be acquainted with up-to-date knowledge concerning
the diverse agri-food industry, including among others the innovation activity and the evolution and trends
of the several sectors interacting within the agri-food ecosystem.
Indeed, staying updated with the industry activity is important for the innovation consultants to be able to
provide proper innovation services to agri-food SMEs. However, accessing up-to-date and targeted
information for the agri-food ecosystem requires a significant amount of time allocated for searching and
monitoring various specialised sources of information one by one. Data and information concerning the
broad agri-food industry are so widely scattered on the internet that it makes it difficult for innovation
consultants to keep track of all the new knowledge that becomes available day by day. Moreover, there is
no such thing as a single point of entry to online information for the agri-food industry.
In this respect, the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools (web and mobile apps) offer a specialized, platform-
independent search engine, that aims to assist agri-food innovation consultants, as well as SMEs, to find
targeted information concerning the agri-food ecosystem. The search engine probes simultaneously
multiple targeted sources of information available on the web, in order to retrieve results relevant to the
broad agri-food industry, excluding the information noise observed when using the common search
engines. Complementary functionalities facilitate frequent and personalized use of the tools, as well as easy
sharing of the identified information with colleagues and clients.
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 3
The development of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools has been realised in 3 design and development stages,
incorporated in a 3-round approach for design, development, testing and validation, aiming to systematically
enhance the tools’ features and functionalities. These 3 rounds run in parallel with the development and
piloting of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD innovation support services, so as to ensure that both offerings remain
aligned and oriented towards the project’s objectives and the needs of its stakeholders.
The first two testing and validation stages of our iterative methodology yielded stakeholder feedback that
guided the further development, enhancement and fine-tuning of the search engine. A custom ranking
methodology was designed and implemented for presenting the search results in order of relevance, building
on widely used criteria and techniques. The ranking algorithm was fine-tuned and optimized during the 3rd
development stage. In addition, the interface of the web and mobile applications became available in 9
different languages, including the ones of the consortium. What’s more, the database of the relevant web
sources that the search engine considers was highly extended during the 2nd and 3rd development stages,
reaching up to 563 different domains, allowing in this way more specialised information to be retrieved
through the search tool, across 76 countries.
The current report has been produced at the end of the 3rd design and development stage, just before the
beginning of the final testing and validation, which, similar to the 2nd iteration, foresee the utilisation of the
ICT Tools by independent agri-food consultants and SMEs.

Introduction
One of the main targets of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD1 project is to develop ICT tools that will support and
facilitate the delivery of the novel innovation support services, developed and offered in the context of the
project.
The current document constitutes the report describing the third and final version of the ICT tools
(consisting of web and mobile applications), as finalised by the end of the 3rd development stage of the
project. These ICT tools have been co-designed with agri-food stakeholders in the context of the INNO-4-
AGRIFOOD Co-creation Workshop2, tested during the 1st and 2nd deployment rounds and validated through
the respective digital Validation Workshops held at the end of each round.
In particular, the current report is structured in 7 distinct chapters as follows:
• Chapter 1 introduces the context in which the current report has been elaborated.
• Chapter 2 provides the objectives and rationale of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools, describing the
process followed for determining their design.
• Chapter 3 presents an overview of the web and mobile applications of the ICT tools, describing their
functional characteristics.
• Chapter 4 presents the foreseen administration and maintenance processes for the ICT tools, along
with the respective admin interfaces and tools.
• Chapter 5 describes the technical implementation of the ICT tools, providing information for their
technical design, the technologies used and the system architecture.
• Chapter 6 summarises the main feedback collected through the 1st and 2nd deployment rounds and
the respective adaptations implemented to address that feedback.
• Chapter 7 provides the conclusions of the report and outlines the next steps with respect to the 3rd
round of deployment and validation of the ICT tools.
Finally, the Annex of the report provides the updated list with the online information sources currently
utilised by the ICT tools.

Objectives and rationale
The INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools aim to assist and facilitate the delivery of the new INNO-4-AGRIFOOD
innovation support services for agri-food SMEs.
More specifically, the ICT tools have been designed with the objectives to:
• Provide meaningful functionalities that assist the delivery of innovation support services to agri-food
SMEs, built on modern, widely used technologies.
• Be platform-independent and complementary to the tools already at the disposal of agri-food
consultants, and especially of the Enterprise European Network (EEN), avoiding any overlaps.
• Be easily accessible and used, mainly by consultants but also directly by agri-food SMEs.
With the objectives of the ICT tools in mind, their functional characteristics have been co-created along with
various agri-food stakeholders that took part in the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD Co-creation Workshop, where a
prototype suite of 4 different tools was presented and discussed. The feedback received influenced
significantly the orientation of the tools.
Indeed, the prototype of the tools presented during the workshop gave the opportunity to innovation
consultants, especially of the EEN, to highlight the fact that they have already at their disposal a number of
sophisticated and powerful ICT platforms to support their services, thus adding one more complicated and
time consuming platform to their toolbox would not bring more value to them and therefore, they might be
reluctant to use it within their work routine. In this respect, developing functionalities that are already
covered by the existing platforms would lead to the new offering being underused and/or neglected.
Taking into serious consideration the critical points expressed by the participants of the workshop, the INNO-
4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools have been refined with the aim of bringing real value to the agri-food innovation
consultants, as well as to SMEs. In this respect, the project has not developed an additional ICT platform.
Instead, it has offered simple and meaningful tools that are highly usable and time efficient, requiring just
elementary ICT skills. Their simple design ensures that they support the delivery of the novel project’s
services for fostering collaborative innovation, in a time and effort effective way, without adding
unnecessary complexity and superfluous workload to the innovation consultants who use them.
In result and based upon the valuable insights collected from the agri-food stakeholders during and after the
co-creation workshop, it became evident that what was meaningful was to simplify the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD
tools and focus mainly on developing a search engine specialised to the agri-food ecosystem, that will help
innovation consultants find targeted information for providing their services in an easy and efficient manner.
The following sections of the current report present all the functional, as well as technical characteristics of
the third and final version of the search engine, as designed and enhanced throughout the project, according
to the whole feedback collected by stakeholders up to this stage.
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 6
ICT tools overview
In order to support innovation among SMEs operating in the agri-food value chain, consultants need to be
acquainted with up-to-date knowledge concerning the diverse agri-food industry. This knowledge should
pertain, among others, to innovation activity, evolution and trends of the several sectors interacting within
the agri-food ecosystem. Staying up-to-date with the industry activity is important for the consultants to be
able to provide proper innovation support services to agri-food SMEs, such as the novel INNO-4-AGRIFOOD
innovation support services.
However, accessing up-to-date and targeted information for the agri-food ecosystem requires a significant
amount of time allocated for searching and monitoring various specialised sources of information one by
one. Data and information concerning the broad agri-food industry are so widely scattered on the internet
that it is difficult to keep track of all the new knowledge that becomes available day by day. Moreover, there
is no such thing as a single point of entry to online information for the agri-food industry.
In this respect, the main offer of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools is a specialized, platform-independent
search engine, that aims to assist agri-food consultants, as well as SMEs familiar with ICT applications, to find
targeted information concerning the agri-food ecosystem. The search engine probes simultaneously
multiple targeted sources of information available on the web, in order to retrieve results relevant to the
broad agri-food industry, excluding the information noise observed when using the common search
engines.
A dedicated database of relevant open web sources has been developed, such as innovation platforms,
forums, blogs, news portals, online databases etc., covering 76 countries (28 countries more than the second
version of the tools). Currently this database includes 563 different domains, about 196 domains more than
the second version of the ICT Tools. The database will continue to be maintained and expand during and
beyond the project’s duration, including new relevant sources of information, while excluding sources that
become outdated. Besides the search engine, complementary features have been integrated to the ICT tools,
in order to make their use more personalized and convenient, as well as to allow easy sharing of the identified
information with colleagues and clients.
The following sub-sections present in detail the ICT tools’ functionalities and describe how they can be used,
providing illustrations of the Graphical User Interface (GUI).
From now on the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT Tools will be also referred to as “Search Tool”. This title was
selected as being more easily marketable, self-explained and conceivable by the target groups. It is
currently used in both the web and mobile applications developed, as well as in all the relevant
communication tools and messages.
3.1 The wed application
Accessing the application
The end-users are able to access the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT Tools web application through the project’s
official web portal (Figure 1). To do so, they should first log-in to the portal, using a valid user account (Figure
2). The central registration form of the web portal allows new users to freely sign-up in order to access all
the project’s offerings.

Figure 1: Integration with the project’s web portal
Figure 2: Log-in form of the project’s web portal
Searching for targeted information
Once the users are logged-in, the interface of the search tool allows them to apply search terms in the
available field, in order to retrieve information from multiple open web sources dedicated to the agri-food
ecosystem (Figure 3). Such sources may be websites of organisations, news portals, blogs, collaboration and
innovation platforms, forums, online databases etc. The search term may be just a keyword or a longer
phrase. The search engine will identify the main part of the keyword, e.g. the root, and will take into account
multiple possible endings or suffixes in order to provide relevant results.
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 8
Figure 3: The Search Tool
By clicking on the “Search” button, the search results appear on the screen, in a form that includes the title
of the information, the link to the web source, as well as a small text to provide the user with some extra
information on what each result is about (Figure 4). Furthermore, the “Video Search” button allows the user
to search specifically for video content (e.g. tutorials, technology promo videos, etc.), thanks to the
integration of the YouTube platform.
Figure 4: The search results
During the 2nd development stage, a custom ranking algorithm was designed and implemented, in order to
enable the presentation of the search results in relevance order. This new feature facilitates the users’ need
to easily distinguish the most relevant and highly weighted results based on the search term, among the
hundreds of results that may appear on the screen.
The ranking algorithm that was developed is based on the most commonly used ranking criteria of
established search engines, which were identified through literature review. The identified ranking
techniques were adapted to the context and needs of the specific search tool, in order to produce a custom
methodology properly combining criteria such as:
• the position of the search term in the web source (e.g. in the title οf the webpage, in the domain
name, in the path name and in meta keywords)
• the Term Frequency (TF)1
1 TF shows how often the term appears in a field/result. The more often, the more relevant. A field containing five mentions of the same term is more likely to be relevant than a field containing just one mention.

INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 9
In addition, during the 2nd development phase, the whole user interface of the Search Tool was translated to
another 9 languages besides English, which are currently available for the user to choose from. This feature
aims to assist users that are not proficient in English, neither accustomed to using apps in the English
language, to feel conformable using the applications in their own language (Figure 5).
Figure 5: Available languages of the Search Tool
Sharing of information
In order to facilitate easy sharing of the retrieved information, an additional functionality has been developed
that allows the users to send an email to an email address they wish, via the tools’ interface, incorporating
one or more selected search results (Figure 6). During the 2nd development stage, this functionality was
enhanced in order to allow the user to type also a text message to be included in the email body.
Figure 6: Sharing results via email
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 10
Figure 7: Results shared through the Search Tool
A dedicated email account, namely [email protected], has been created and integrated with the ICT
tools, to be used for sending emails through the tools interface.
Keeping a search history
Furthermore, in order to facilitate frequent use of the tools, an additional feature has been developed that
allows users to maintain a selective search history by saving search terms (Figure 8).
Figure 8: Saving search history
The saved search terms can be reapplied in the future in order to look for updated results. The user can also
maintain the search history by deleting saved terms that are not of interest any more.
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 11
Figure 9: Reapplying or deleting saved search terms
Flexible viewing
A Responsive Web Design (RWD) approach has been adopted for the development of the ICT tools, aiming
at providing optimal viewing and interaction experience, such as easy reading and navigation that requires
minimum resizing, panning, and scrolling. As a result, whenever the user switches from one device to
another, for instance from a desktop to a portable device, the webpage is automatically adapted to optimise
resolution, image size and scripting abilities (Figure 10).
3.2 The mobile application
In addition to the aforementioned web application, the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools also include dedicated
mobile apps for the two major mobile operating systems, namely Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS. These
apps can be downloaded on portable devices through Google Play and App Store respectively, while the
relevant hyperlinks can also be found in the web application (Figure 11).
Figure 10: Responsive design

Figure 11: Accessing the mobile apps through the web application
The mobile application approach aims at enabling users to easily access the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD Search tool
from their portable devices, facilitating “on-the-go” searching for specialised information for the agri-food
ecosystem. In terms of usability and functionalities, the mobile application has similar design to the web
application, in order to offer a uniform experience to the user.

ICT tools administration
4.1 Maintenance of the web sources database
Special attention was paid to ensure that the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools will be easily administered,
maintained and enhanced during the whole project’s duration and beyond. It is necessary that the long list
of web sources managed by the Search Tool remains up-to-date, including any new relevant source
identified. Moreover, any websites that stop working or become outdated should be omitted from the list,
in order to optimise the search results, as well as the technical performance.
In this respect, a control panel has been specially developed for the maintenance of the web sources
database. Through this panel the administrator can add new sources to the database, as well as edit or
remove any of the existing ones.
To access the control panel, the administrator should provide the username and unique password of a
registered administrator account in the login screen (Figure 13). By clicking the “Log in” button, and if the
given credentials are valid, the administrator can log-in to the control panel, or else an error message is
displayed.
Figure 13: The admin panel login screen
The administrator can add new web sources to the database by clicking the “Add site” option (Figure 14).
After clicking the “Add site” button the administrator can add web sources to the database by completing
the “URL” field and clicking on the “Add” button (Figure 15).
Figure 14: The admin panel
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 14
Then, in order for the new web source to be indexed, the administrator should click on the “Options” link
next to the new source, and then on the “Index” button. Through the “Options” screen (Figure 16), the
administrator can also edit or even delete a listed web source, using the respective buttons. By clinking on
the “Edit” button, the edit screen appears (Figure 17), allowing the user to change the main URL, the depth
of the web source we wish to index, etc.
Whenever a web source is indexed or edited, the system automatically checks in real time the technical
compatibility of the source with the search engine and displays the results on the administrator’s screen. This
functionality was developed and enhanced during the 2nd and 3rd development stages respectively, to allow
the administrators to check in real time for any technical issues that may prevent the search engine from
accessing specific web sources.
To exit the control panel, the user can click the “Sign out” link on the top-left corner of the page.

Figure 16: The “Options” screen
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 15
One of the main focus points of the 2nd and 3rd development stages was the extension of the web sources
database. A thorough investigation was conducted in order to identify more sources relevant to the European
agri-food sector, via extended desk research, exploitation of networks and communication with stakeholders.
Finally, we arrived at a database including 563 relevant web sources (see Annex), empowering in this way
the Search Tool to provide extensive, still focused, information to the users.
4.2 Monitoring of the ICT Tools usage
In order to facilitate the monitoring of the ICT Tools usage, a dedicated script was developed during the 3rd
development stage that allows the automatic production of an excel sheet containing all the up-to-date
relevant statistics about the system users and their activity on the search tool apps. The script runs just with
browsing to a dedicated URL through a web browser and automatically creates and downloads a populated
excel sheet to the administrator’s device e.g. computer. The monitored information includes among others
the user registration information (name, contact details, organisation name and type, etc.), the number of
sessions, the number of searches applied, as well as the total of emails sent through the system per user.

System development
The INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT Tools have been built by means of popular contemporary web technologies,
leveraging open-source components and implementing necessary customizations. This chapter of the report
provides an overview of the system’s technical implementation.
5.1 System architecture
The system architecture consists of three main components, including a) the web crawler, b) the database
(DB) and c) the graphical user interface (GUI), as illustrated in the following figure.
Figure 18: System architecture
The web crawler
The web crawler is a software component that traverses the web to collect information. It visits public web
sites and records their content in order to create entries to be stored in the database. Entire web portals or
specific web pages can be selectively visited and indexed. The crawler is scheduled to run automatically at
regular intervals in order to gather new content from the listed web sources, whereas it can also run manually
through the admin panel whenever the administrator wishes.
The database
The database stores a copy of the content of each web page accessed by the web crawler. This database is
where the user actually searches in. Every time the user applies a search through the search interface, it is
the database content that is parsed to identify matching information, rather than searching real-time in each
INNO-4-AGRIFOOD smart ICT tools (web and mobile applications) – Final version – March, 2018 Page 17
of the listed web sources. This implementation strategy was particularly selected for optimizing the system’s
performance, while minimizing the response time, which significantly improves the user experience.
The graphical user interface
The search interface allows the user to communicate with the database and search through its content. Users
can search for any information applying queries with keywords or phrases. Once the matching information
is identified in the database, the search results are presented to the user through the interface, after being
weighted and ranked via the custom ranking algorithm.
5.2 Implementation
The system development is based on a set of techniques including HTML5, CS3, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL and
Ajax technologies.
The web crawler is based on an open-source PHP library that is suitable for indexing, analyzing and saving
data that are crawled from the web. The functions of the library were enriched with custom code to meet
specific requirements of the project. As the crawler visits the pre-defined websites, it identifies all
the hyperlinks and visits the respective HTML pages as well. The crawler indexes the Document Object
Model (DOM) of a website and saves all of its content in the MySQL Database. The crawler updates the
content of the database at regular intervals, thus any change on the content of the listed websites is
captured.
The end users utilize an HTML/JavaScript form where they type keywords and get all the matching results.
Ionic Framework has been used to develop the search form. Ionic is a complete open-source SDK for
developing modern mobile applications. Built on top of AngularJS, Ionic provides tools and services for
developing hybrid mobile applications using web technologies (HTML5, CSS). AngularJS is a JavaScript
framework used to provide the application structure, while Ionic itself focuses on the user interface.
When the end user searches for a keyword, the PHP search engine utilizes the content that is stored in the
database instead of searching real-time in the listed web sources. Thus, the response time of the system is
very short, which is very important for the user experience.
The PHP search engine uses a stemming algorithm for the search term. Stemming is a process of linguistic
normalization, in which the variant forms of a word are reduced to a common form. The stemming algorithm
transforms each word to its basic root or stem (e.g. ‘walking’ to ‘walk’) so that variations on a word (‘walks’,
‘walked’, ‘walking’) are considered equivalent for searching. These stems are used in each search query
rather than the original words, which generally produces more relevant search results.
Once the matching results have been identified by the PHP engine, the ranking algorithm designed and
developed during the 2nd development stage is applied, in order to calculate weights for each result based
on specific relevance components, namely the position of the search term in the result and the Term
Frequency. The ranking algorithm has been implemented in PHP and the ranked results are presented to the
user by means of an AngularJS function.

Summarising main feedback points and corrective actions
The feedback collected through the first two deployment rounds of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD services and tools
was analysed in detail after each round, in order to design necessary adaptations with the aim to fulfil as
much as possible the needs of agri-food consultants and SMEs1. The main feedback collection means were
the Satisfaction Survey accessible through the Search Tool’s interface and the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD Validation
Workshops held by the end of each round, besides ad-hoc feedback. In the tables below we summarise the
main points of the collected feedback, along with the respective adaptations designed and developed
through the 2nd and 3rd development stages.
Table 1: Summary of feedback and main adaptations after the 1st deployment round
Feedback from 1st deployment round Respective actions in the 2nd design & development stage
Improve searchability bringing more relevant results to the surface.
A thorough research of widely used results ranking
techniques was conducted, to come up with a proper list of
relevance criteria and an appropriate method to combine
these criteria to form an algorithm that calculates relevance
of each one of the search results. This custom algorithm is
used to present the most relevant results first, so that the
user can easily distinguish them among the hundreds of
results that may be identified by the search engine.
In addition, the database of relevant web sources that fuels
the search engine was greatly enriched with more sources
related to the agri-food ecosystem, enhancing in this way
the quantity and quality of information retrieved through
the Search Tool.
Enhance the availability of more nationally-focused information.
A thorough investigation was carried out to enhance the
database of relevant web sources, especially by adding
more sources at national level. By the end of the 2nd
development stage, the database included web sources
from 48 different countries.
Introduce more language options for their interface.
Besides English, the interface of the ICT Tools was translated
to another 9 different languages, available in both the web
and mobile applications.
1 Detailed information about the feedback collected from the use of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools can be found in the report “D4.4: Service Deployment and Validation Report – First round” delivered in June 2017 and “D4.6: Service Deployment and Validation Report – Second round” delivered in December 2017.

Further improve the perceived relevance of the search results.
The technical design of the Search Tool was reconsidered
and changed to a great extent during the 3rd development
stage, in order to come up with a solution that greatly
improves the search results. The changes affected among
others the way the web sources are indexed in the
database, resulting in a design that minimises information
noise and the number of results that seem irrelevant.
In addition, an optimisation process was applied on the
ranking algorithm, so as to improve and fine-tune the
ranking of the results based on their relevance. This process
led to reconsideration of the ranking criteria and their
combination, recalculation of the respective weights, as
well as to several bug fixes.
The several adaptations applied are expected to
significantly improve the users’ perceived relevance of the
search results.
Further enrich the information sources to cover specific areas that emerged during the deployment.
New investigation was carried out to further enlarge the
database of relevant web sources with more websites, both
internationally and nationally focused. Emphasis was given
to covering specific areas of interest that arose during the
deployment, such as pomiculture, scrub trees, goat cheese,
traceability, eggshells, poultry residues, frozen food, etc.
Currently, the database includes 563 web sources from 76
different countries.

Conclusions and Next Steps
The INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools have been developed with a view to assisting agri-food innovation
consultants to provide innovation support services to SMEs, and especially the novel INNO-4-AGRIFOOD
innovation support services.
The custom search engine that has been developed aims to facilitate easy and efficient search of information
concerning the agri-food industry. It is expected to assist innovation consultants to get acquainted with up-
to-date information regarding the activity of the agri-food ecosystem and of its several sectors where their
clients operate. This way, innovation consultants will be supported to access the background information
that is needed for providing targeted and personalized services to enhance innovation among agri-food
SMEs.
The development of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD ICT tools has been realised in 3 development stages, following a
methodological approach that unfolds in 3 iterations, each one including design, development, testing and
validation stages that aim to further enhance the tools’ features and functionalities. These 3 iterations have
run in parallel with the development and piloting of the INNO-4-AGRIFOOD innovation support services, so
as to ensure that both project offerings remain aligned and oriented towards the project’s objectives.
The first two full iterations have been successfully completed, including the deployment of the ICT tools by
consultants who are part of the consortium (1st iteration), as well as by independent innovation consultants
and agri-food SMEs themselves (2nd iteration). The feedback collected during both iterations provided useful
insights for the improvement of the Search Tool, towards better covering the needs of the potential users,
namely agri-food consultants and SMEs.
The 3rd iteration is currently in progress, with the development stage finalised, highly focusing on addressing
the feedback received through the 2nd deployment stage. Specifically, the technical re-design of the search
engine, the optimisation of the results ranking algorithm and the further extension of the web-sources
database that were achieved are expected to significantly improve the Search Tool’s usability and the
perceived relevance of the search results.
The next step of this 3rd iteration is the deployment and testing of the final version of the ICT tools by
independent agri-food consultants, as well as agri-food SMEs, attracted through various targeted
dissemination and communication activities of the project. The use of the tools will continue to be closely
monitored to systematically collect feedback from the users, so as to identify potential new features, as well
as areas of further improvement beyond the project’s duration to facilitate their uptake. The iteration will
close with the 3rd Validation Workshop, during which the feedback received over the final piloting stage will
be analysed and discussed.
