Herr Müller ist wirklich sauer. Es ist bereits das vierte (!) Mal, dass
sein Wagen nicht zum vereinbarten Zeitpunkt abholbereit ist. Ne-
ben der lästigen Wartezeit hat die Unzuverlässigkeit der Werkstatt
weitere negative Konsequenzen, die nicht nur Herrn Müller selbst
betreffen: Dank der Verzögerung schafft es Herr Müller nun schon
wieder nicht, seine Tochter vom Ballett abzuholen und muss,
schon wieder, seine Frau darum bitten, für ihn einzuspringen. Die
wiederum hatte eigentlich schon andere Pläne für den Abend und
muss jetzt spontan umdisponieren.
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.
Remote services are services enabled by information and communication components and therefore do not require the physical presence of a service technician at the service object to provide a task. The impact of remote service on the capital goods industry has been increasingly significant over the recent yeas. Still many companies struggle with developing and implemenling successful business model, for remote service. This leads to a lot of unaccomplished benefits for the customer as well as for the companies themselves. A survey throughout companies in Ihe industrial machine and plant production sector was conducted in order to determine what successful companies do differently from those that cannot efficiently implement remote service business models.
The study presented in this chapter identifies key suceess factors of companies that effectively implemented remote services for their products. In order to identify the successful companies a scale for measuring remote service success was developed. Only by the use of this scale further findings regarding the success factors were possible. Key findings include the fact that successful companies actively market their remotle service to their customers. Generally they try to approach their remote service business from the operating company's perspective.
This paper presents a simulation approach for service production processes on the basis of which an optimal operating point for service systems can be identified. The approach specifically takes into account the characteristics of human behavior. The simulation is based on a system theory approach to the service delivery process. A specific use case of the simulation approach is presented in detail to illustrate how characteristic curves are deduced and an optimal operating point is obtained.
Increasing productivity in product-service systems is a vital success factor for industrialized economies and individual businesses. The service production is typically described as an integrated value chain setting, in which the provider and the customer are co-creators.
This paper embraces a characteristic curve model in order to illustrate the influence of the customer on the productivity of service production. The characteristic curves are derived from a system dynamics simulation model for a synchronized takt-based service production. In conclusion this research leads to designs recommendations for service production systems in order to reduce lead times and increase adherence to delivery dates.
Nowadays, providing purchasable goods is not enough for a company to survive on the global market. Because of competitive prices and a large range of products available, companies need to offer additional benefits to their customers in order to create a unique selling point. They add services to their product portfolio and offer clients the opportunity to acquire an additional service solution to go with it. The offered services need to fit to the customer's needs, resulting in a variety of available services, great complexity of the service range and decreasing transparency of the resource utilization. This paper addresses the problem by identifying variant-creating factors in product service systems, transferring them into an organizational framework and verifying their significance.
Während im Personenverkehr moderne Technologien wie Achslenker oder Scheibenbremsen seit Jahren zum etablierten Standard gehören, konnten sich diese im Schienengüterverkehr bislang nicht durchsetzen. Die umweltschonende Alternative zum Verkehr auf der Straße setzt heute auf lange veraltete Technik, wodurch sich unter anderem die vergleichsweise hohen Lärmemissionen des Güterverkehrs erklären lassen. Wesentlicher Grund für den langsamen Technologiewechsel im Güterverkehr sind die hohen Anschaffungskosten moderner Technologien. Doch ein Blick auf die gesamten Lebenszykluskosten lohnt sich: Die für den Lebenszyklus optimierte Entwicklung eines Bahn-Drehgestells zeigt, dass die Zeit reif ist für Innovationen im Schienengüterverkehr und diesem ein grundlegender Wandel bevorsteht.
Vor dem Hintergrund der zunehmenden Bedeutung und der besonderen Herausforderungen beim Betrieb von Offshore-Windenergieanlagen war das übergeordnete Ziel des Forschungsvorhabens DispoOffshore die Steigerung der Verfügbarkeit und Rentabilität von Offshore-Windparks. Der Fokus des Forschungsvorhabens lag auf der Entwicklung eines intelligenten und effizienten Dispositionswerkzeugs für die interaktive und dynamische Aufgaben- und Ressourcensteuerung in Offshore-Windparks, das zum Ziel hat, die anfallenden Aufgaben in einen Offshore-Windpark möglichst effizient zu disponieren. Hierbei kam der Betrachtung der Ablauf- und Aufbauorganisation der Instandhaltungsorganisation eines Windparks und die ergonomische Gestaltung der Software eine besondere Bedeutung zu.
Today, machine manufacturers generate a significant share of their revenues with the provision of services. At the same time, they are confronted with the challenge of adopting of Industrie 4.0.
One of the most important Industrie 4.0 concepts is the idea of the digital shadow, which contributes to the comprehensive structuring of different kinds of data from different data sources. It can be defined as the sufficiently precise, digital representation of reality in real-time.
Thus, it also functions as a database of the considered area of a company that can be used for numerous applications. It serves as a central platform for the aggregation and distribution of data. Thereby, it helps to open isolated data silos. A system architecture that enables extraction of data from various sources and the aggregation of that data is an important prerequisite for the digital shadow.
In addition, the merger of data from different sources requires a model of the part of the company to be mapped digitally. In this paper, we focus on maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services of machine manufacturers. The scope comprises the whole order processing of a service including the utilized resources and the obtained results.
MRO services and their single elements are mapped and structured using a case study research in a first step. Those elements provide a basis for designing the digital shadow. A second contribution of this paper is a data model for the digital shadow of MRO services that entails a comprehensive representation of that department.
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.
