Sorry I have been really slow in responding. You will find on her site some useful frames, references and sharing ideas. You might want to consider her to talk, become involved etc as she has a wide knowledge that will help in approaching and thinking through many of the different aspects of open innovation.

Thanks for your comment Paul and the reference to Verna Allee which I will follow up – do you have any particular work in mind? The quantification of all these factors is at an early stage in most companies and needs more rigour.

I think you are right on the button in exploring how to measure innovation and especially open innovation. The nature of open innovation is proving value to enter into the organizations internal innovation pipeline. The simple but effective structure of attempting to measure appropriate inputs, process, outputs and outcomes can help.
Your opening thoughts of measuring alignment between two or more parties is critical, same for health of the relationship and value networks.
I call this Business relationship management where you are aiming to accelerate the interactions, add more value to networks and the connections made and dealing with often unique challenges (unknowns) effectively. For me the value of the work that Verna Allee has been working upon for a number of years really has enourmous value to explore around the Value Network. She talks of the three currencies of value- 1. the potential revenue you expect from these engagements is critical to assess as early as you can. 2) The knowledge value- exchanges, value to your core mission and objectives, 3)Intangible benefits- the exchanges themselves build sense of communities, connections, further opportunities and she feels these need to be mapped into a value exchange.
The one most powerful aspect of her work is in Value conversion- taking often intangibles as negotiables and deliverables to achieve a (mutual) flow of values.
Perhaps we should be building a whole new lexicon, not just for the sake of it, but because it is the inside world needing to meet the outside world and often this requires a (new) common language
