Purpose: of the article is to present selected problems of innovation management. Indication of the growing interdisciplinary and the complexity of that issue and requirement of having an extensive knowledge from the scope of the management. The other purpose is a synthetic presentation of differences in approach to managing innovations. The additional purpose is to present benefits which are the effect of efficient managing innovations. They are described based on examining processes of preparing the production. The topicality of the subject matter results from the fact that it is projecting to a considerable degree onto the competitiveness of businesses. However the large variability is forcing surroundings to seek organizational new solutions. Design/methodology/approach: For the need of achieving presented purposes, studies on literature concerning managing innovations were undertaken. Special attention was paid to development processes of new releases. At the same time in chosen manufacturing companies they conducted pilot researches (interviews, conversations with the technical divisions’ management staff). Those researches enabled to recognize approaches toward the discussed subject matter as well as to find out solutions applied in processes of preparing the production and effects obtained from this title. Findings: Studies on literature are showing that there is a number of innovation management models as well as of managing development processes of new releases. It is explicitly hard to show better solutions and to recommend them for individual enterprises. All of them have the determined merits and demerits. They are reweighing demand-induced models. A complexity of suggested solutions grows. Examined enterprises apply own models embracing outside organizations, stakeholders and consumers more and more often. At the same moment they require a modern organization. Research limitations/implications: The preliminary findings introduced in the general form requires systematizing and deepening. Further researches are necessary, particularly in the development processes of new releases. Practical implications: Both theoretical as well as practical arrangements concerning managing innovations and obtained effects are emphasizing meaning of this subject matter for the structure of the strong competitive position. Therefore building elastic models enabling the efficient management is needed. Originality/value: The main value of this article is to show issues of managing innovations as the matter requiring parallel apply of modern tools assisting change management, knowledge management, project management etc.
