Erfolgreiche Serviceinnovation im Zeitalter industrieller, datenbasierter Dienstleistungen unterscheidet sich deutlich von bisherigen Ansätzen der klassischen Dienstleistungsentwicklung. Diese Erkenntnis konnte aus einem breit angelegten Benchmarking in der deutschen Industrie gewonnen werden. Die Benchmarking-Studie identifizierte besonders erfolgreiche Unternehmen, deren Methoden und Ansätze zur Gestaltung innovativer Dienstleistungen in Form von Fallstudien im Detail untersucht wurden. Als Kernergebnis ergeben sich sechs Prinzipien, die erfolgreiche Serviceinnovation für datenbasierte Dienstleistungen auszeichnen.
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.
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.
Damit Unternehmen die Potenziale von Smart Services nutzen können, müssen intelligente Objekte, technische Infrastruktur und Geschäftsmodelle kombiniert werden. Smart Services sind datenbasiert und erfordern daher eine integrierte Berücksichtigung von Hard- und Software. Sie stellen die höchste Ausbaustufe digitaler, datenbasierter Geschäftsmodelle dar. Für die erfolgreiche Entwicklung von Smart Services bedarf es daher anderer Ansätze als bei der klassischen industriellen Dienstleistungsentwicklung. In einem breit angelegten Benchmarking konnte diese Erkenntnis bestätigt werden. Als Kernergebnis wurden fünf Prinzipien für die erfolgreiche Entwicklung von Smart Services abgeleitet.
Data-driven services play an important role in
innovative business models of successful manufacturing
companies: They hold great potential for the creation of unique
selling points and improve the differentiation of manufacturing
companies in highly competitive markets. However, the large
number of newly invented digital services that fail shortly after
launching implies that companies struggle with the invention and
implementation of data-driven service solutions, which ends in a
waste of resources. The following paper introduces guideline
principles for successful innovation processes for data-driven
services. The principles were identified during in-depth case
studies with manufacturing companies. They contribute to a
necessary paradigm change for manufacturing companies in
terms of data-driven services for machines. The six identified
principles emphasize new aspects regarding the new dimension of
data-driven solutions and improve the life cycle management of
products and services. They demonstrate how the rules of agile
development can lead to successful and more efficient service
innovations in the industrial sector.
Traditional manufacturing companies increasingly launch data-driven services (DDS) to enhance their digital service portfolio. Nonetheless, data-driven services fail more often than traditional industrial services or products within the first year on the market. In terms of market launch, their digital characteristics differ from traditional industrial services and thus need specific structures and actions, which companies currently lack. Therefore, a process guideline for a six-month market launch phase of DDS is developed. The guideline relies on analogies from product, service and software launches based on the latest literature from service marketing and successful practices from various industries. Finally, the guideline is evaluated within five industrial case studies. Thus, the guideline provides scientific research insights regarding the market launch process of DDS and adds to the research of service marketing. It provides practical guidance for manufacturing companies by serving as a reference process for the market launch and offering a collection of successful practices within this area.

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 Smart Services: Types of Smart Service Business Models in the Digitalized Agriculture
(2019)
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.
Process Characteristics and Process Performance Indicators for Analysis of Process Standardization
(2018)
Industrial service companies deliver technically complex services (inspection, maintenance, repair, improvement, installation) for an enormous variety of technical assets in the chemical, steel, food and pharmaceutical industry. This variety of assets leads to a corresponding variety of service processes. To ensure competitiveness, the management of industrial service companies aims to increase the service process efficiency, especially through service process standardization. However, decision-makers struggle to make knowledge-based decisions on service process standardization because ex-ante the cost-benefit ratios of process standardization are unknown. The missing understanding of cost-benefit ratios of process standardization is caused by a missing understanding, which interdependencies exist between process characteristics and process performance indicators. Thus, the objective of this paper is to determine suitable characteristics and performance indicators to measure the way service provision processes are executed in the industrial service sector. The results represent the basis for executing an empirical questionnaire study focusing on the execution of service provision processes and identifying the cause-effect relations of process standardization.
