Abstract

Тhe article aimed at the research and systematization of theoretical positions concerning definition of economic categories "innovative activity" and "innovation process" and their correlation. Proceeding from the fact that any activity includes the purpose, the means, the result and the process of activity itself, and the process refers to a consistent change in the states of stages of development or a set of consecutive actions to achieve any result, it is determined that the concept of "innovative activity" a wider and more powerful concept than an "innovation process". The concept of innovative activity is analyzed, and its main features are highlighted: the direction to create a new result; creation of new knowledge; the direction to improve (modify) the already existing result; focusing on the commercialization of results (profit generation); high degree of uncertainty and risk; intellectual saturation. Features, directions and generalized model of innovation process are considered. In order to further study the essence and main stages of the innovation process, its context diagram in the IDEF0 notation is constructed based on the business process modeling methodology, based on the structural analysis and design methodology (Structured Аnаlysis аnd Design Technique - SАDT) and its decomposition.
