Die Umsetzung einer strategischen Veränderung hin zum Lösungsanbieter besteht in weiten Teilen in der Anpassung des bestehenden Geschäftsmodells oder der Neudefinition desselben. Zunehmend werden bspw. anstelle des Verkaufs von Sachgütern und des darauffolgenden Angebots von After-Sales-Dienstleistungen Garantien über die Funktionsbereitschaft oder Verfügbarkeit angeboten. Dazu ist umfassendes Wissen über Geschäftsmodelle und deren Anpassung notwendig.
In diesem Beitrag wird beschrieben, wie Geschäftsmodelle grundsätzlich aufgebaut sind und welche Fragestellungen bei der Entwicklung eines Geschäftsmodells beantwortet werden müssen. Es werden für das Management industrieller Dienstleistungen relevante nutzungs- und gebrauchsabhängige Geschäftsmodelle vorgestellt. Das Kapitel wird abgerundet durch eine Methode für das Management der Anpassung von Geschäftsmodellen.
Companies in the manufacturing industry are shifting towards a more service-oriented business model. One major challenge of this transformation is the information exchange between the different stages of the product-service-lifecycle.
We extend the existing body of knowledge by conducting an empirical study in the German manufacturing industry, addressing the cause-effect relationship between 1) information gathering over the product-service-lifecycle, 2) data analytics 3) interpretation and use of new information and 4) distribution of new product related information and the impact of these four aspects on performance.
The analysis reveals five different success factors with a significant impact on innovation and operation excellence. The implications from our research can help to develop new and more practical oriented Lifecycle-Product-Service-System approaches on the one hand. On the other hand it enables companies to focus on activities leading to higher service efficiency. Creating new stimuli will transform their existing business model to a more service-oriented one.
Assets of integrated production systems, especially in the heavy industry, are facing high requirements in terms of reliability and availability. In case of component breakdown, the operating firm is confronted with high costs due to downtime and loss of production. Modern maintenance concepts in combination with advanced technologies can help to improve the plant availability and reduce the downtime costs caused by unplanned breakdowns. Against this background, the research institutes FIR and IMR from RWTH Aachen University, Germany, are collaborating within the research project “SiZu”. This project deals with the integration of condition monitoring system and real time simulation to assess the condition of components and to support failure cause analysis.
Mit der steigenden Bedeutung von industriellen Dienstleistungen und den damit verbundenen Herausforderungen der Unternehmensführung bedarf es eines Bezugsrahmens für das Management industrieller Dienstleistungen. Ein solcher Ansatz, der eine umfassende Beschreibung der Aufgaben des Managements darlegt, wurde von Schuh und Gudergan entwickelt.
Ziel des Ordnungsrahmens ist es, dem Management eine grundlegende Orientierung zu geben und dabei die relevanten Gestaltungsbereiche zu betrachten. Es wird in Anlehnung an das St. Galler Management-Modell zwischen einer internen und einer externen Perspektive unterschieden.
Der im weiteren Verlauf vorgestellte Ordnungsrahmen beschreibt den Betrachtungsbereich sowie Inhalte und Aufgaben, die für das Management Industrieller Dienstleistungen von Relevanz ist. Gleichzeitig ermöglicht der vorgestellte Ordnungsrahmen die Strukturierung und Einordnung der verschiedenen Themenfelder. Der Ordnungsrahmen gliedert dabei das Management industrieller Dienstleistungen in die Teilbereiche Unternehmensstruktur, Unternehmensprozesse und Unternehmensentwicklung. Diese innerbetrieblichen Aspekte werden in den Kontext der für das Unternehmen relevanten Umweltsphären und Anspruchsgruppen gesetzt.
Produzierende Unternehmen in Industrienationen sehen sich einem immer stärkeren internationalen Wettbewerb ausgesetzt. Eine der entscheidenden Strategien, um diesem Wandel zu begegnen, ist die Differenzierung über industrielle Dienstleistungen.
Im folgenden Kapitel werden zunächst die Begriffe der Dienstleistungen und der industriellen Dienstleistungen inhaltlich gefasst und definiert. Danach wird die zunehmende wirtschaftliche Bedeutung industrieller Dienstleistungen für die Wirtschaft und für produzierende Unternehmen an sich aufgezeigt. Das Konzept des Leistungssystems wird vorgestellt. Abschließend werden verschiedene Perspektiven des Managements industrieller Dienstleistungen vorgestellt.
The rapid developments in information and communication technology enable new bus iness models that are based on digital platforms. Marketplaces such as Amazon or Airbnb have already adapted this business model to connect previously unconnected supply-side and demand-side to conduct a business transaction via a digital platform. Due to Industrie 4.0 and the rapid technological development that comes with it, digital platforms have entered the market within the area of the mechanical engineering. Different platform types exist, such as marketplaces for machine equipment or digital data platforms for connected machines. Although numerous companies claim to offer platform-based bus iness models, they often lack knowledge on individual business model components. To close this gap, this paper structures a variety of existing platforms based on their detail characteristics. Within this paper, existing typologies of digital platforms from other industry areas are analyzed. Case study research ofplatforms within the mechanical engineering is used to adjust these typologies and create a new one for digital platforms within the mechanical engineering.
In an increasingly changing market environment, the long-term survival of companies depends on their ability to reduce latencies in adapting to new market conditions. One strategy to meet this challenge is the anchoring of data-driven decision making, which leads to an increasing use of advanced information technologies and, subsequently, to an increase in the amount of data stored. The complexity of processing these data spurred the demand for advanced statistical methods and functions called Business Analytics. Companies are, despite all promised benefits, overwhelmed with the implementation of Business Analytics as indicated by a failure rate of 65 to 80 %. This paper provides an empirically validated, multi-dimensional model that takes an integrative look at critical success factors for the implementation
of Business Analytics and based on which management recommendations can be generated. For this purpose, constructs of the model are conceptualized, before a structural equation model is developed. This model is then validated with data from 69 industrial partners in the food industry. It is shown amongst others, that the three success factors top management support, IT infrastructure and system quality are pivotal to increase the company performance.
Patterns of Digitization
(2020)
This article describes the results of Patterns of Digitization survey designed to assess how companies are implementing digital transformation. The survey includes the various strategies companies employ, the technologies they invest in, and, in particular, the actions they take to overcome the organizational resistance that is common to most large-scale transformations. Digital transformation is reshaping entire segments of our society and industries of every type:
communications, retail, and increasingly healthcare, medicine, agriculture, and manufacturing.
While a few companies seem to reach front-runner status, the majority seem to lag. This phenomenon is a top concern of boardrooms worldwide and motivated the development of this study. To help these organizations, we highlight the important actions all companies are taking as well as the differentiated actions digitally mature companies are undertaking to transform their businesses. These insights should help lagging companies understand what is involved in
implementing a digital transformation and what they need to do to catch up.
Personal user data is collected and processed at large scale by a handful of big providers of Internet services. This is detrimental to users, who often do not understand the privacy implications of this data collection, as well as to small parties interested in gaining insights from this data pool, e.g., research groups or small and middle-sized enterprises. To remedy this situation, we propose a transparent and user-controlled data market in which users can directly and consensually share their personal data with interested parties for monetary compensation. We define a simple model for such an ecosystem and identify pressing challenges arising within this model with respect to the user and data processor demands, legal obligations, and technological limits. We propose myneData as a conceptual architecture for a trusted online platform to overcome these challenges. Our work provides an initial investigation of the resulting myneData ecosystem as a foundation to subsequently realize our envisioned data market via the myneData platform.
The almost boundless possibilities of realizing saving potentials and innovations drive manufacturing companies to implement Business Analytics as part of the digitalization roadmap. The increasing research within the field of algorithm design and the wide range of user-friendly tools simplify generating first insights from data also for non-professionals. However, small and medium sized companies struggle implementing Business Analytics company-wide due to the lack of competencies. Especially the customization of a multitude of analytic methods in order to match a superordinate, business-relevant question is not done easily. This paper enables researchers as well as practitioners to close the gap between business relevant questions and algorithms. From a practical point of view, this paper helps shortening the search time for a suitable algorithm. Out of a research perspective, it aims to help positioning new algorithms within a structured framework in order to enhance the communication of algorithms’ capabilities.
