Industrial Smart Services - Types of Smart Service Business Models in the Digitalized Agriculture
(2018)
Due to lack of experience of companies with digital business models, agricultural machinery manufacturers and agricultural service companies are facing a positioning problem in their ecosystem. Smart services are getting more important for these companies and they have issues to define a matching business model for their newly developed smart services. The lack of a framework for smart service business models makes it even harder for companies to successfully develop new services.
This paper contributes to a better understanding of business models for smart services and establishes a common morphological framework to define different types of business models for smart services. Six types of business models of industrial smart services were identified during the research based, which was based on a literature review and interviews with leading experts in the field of smart services. The validation of the developed types and its practical application was carried out as part of the German research project Smart-Farming-World and its four developed use cases. This paper gives a detailed description of the application of the framework on the use case nPotato.
Kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) stehen zunehmend vor der Herausforderung, im Wettbewerb immer komplexer und volatiler werdenden Leistungen des After-Sales-Service zu bestehen. Ein Erfolgsfaktor ist die Veränderungsfähigkeit bzw. die stetige Adaption des eigenen Serviceportfolios. Um KMU bei der Identifikation notwendiger Anpassungen ihres Serviceportfolios, bei deren Bündelung, Management und Umsetzung zu unterstützen, wurde das Forschungsprojekt „ReleasePro" gestartet. Im Zuge dieses Vorhabens erfolgt die Entwicklung eines systematischen Service-Release-Managements für KMU.
Die digitale Vernetzung ist von großer Bedeutung für das Servicegeschäft im Maschinen- und Anlagenbau. Durch neue Möglichkeiten der wirtschaftlichen Datenerfassung, -speicherung und –verarbeitung können auf die Kundenbedürfnisse ausgerichtete Smart Services entwickelt werden. Diese Smart Services stellen die höchste Form datenbasierter Geschäftsmodelle dar. Unternehmen müssen diese Potenziale erkennen und relevante Handlungsfelder im Unternehmen weiterentwickeln, um erfolgreich in der Smart-Service-Welt zu agieren.
Industrial service is currently undergoing tremendous changes, largely driven by the development of new technologies, in particular the advancing digitalization. Never before have organizations had more comprehensive and insightful data assets - and never before have the opportunities to fully exploit this potential been better. However, most companies are unaware of how they can make use of this potential and which development steps are necessary to react to the current situation. To change this, a maturity-based approach was developed which describes four development stages of an industrial service company from a technological, organizational and cultural point of view. The maturity model makes it possible to develop a digital roadmap that is tailormade to each company, which helps to introduce Industrie 4.0 and transform industrial service companies into learning, agile organizations.
