Ongoing digitalization and Industry 4.0 enable the development of new business models due to the increase in available data and digital connected products. A promising business model type for the machinery and plant engineering industry are subscription models, consisting of products and services offered in return for continuous payments. However, subscription-based business models are associated with extensive changes in the traditional machinery and plant engineering industry, in particular, for small and medium-sized companies (SMEs). Established concepts for the development of value propositions and business models neglect important aspects, such as the integrated development and optimization of products and services across the entire life cycle or the data infrastructure. This paper presents a concept for a methodology to support SMEs developing value propositions within subscription models. Therefore, the systematic identification of customer benefits, the determination and prioritization of subscription relevant functionalities as well as the design of product and service elements addressing those functionalities are the main aspects on which the focus is placed on. The result is a subscription value proposition canvas for SMEs to address the impact of subscription models on products and services.
Schon seit einigen Jahren steht die Digitalisierung von Wertschöpfungsaktivitäten im Blickpunkt produzierender Unternehmen. Die jährlichen Umsatzsteigerungen durch die Einführung der Industrie 4.0 erreichen bis dato allerdings nicht die prognostizierten Werte. Dies ist unter anderem darauf zurückzuführen, dass die produzierenden Unternehmen nach wie vor an klassischen transaktionalen Geschäftsmodellen - "Geld-gegen-Produkte" bzw. "Geld-gegen-Services" festhalten.
Der Artikel gibt eine kurze Einführung in die Inhalte des Subscription-Grundlagenkurses sowie dessen Ziele in Bezug auf die Umsetzung servicegetriebener Geschäftsmodelle.
