About theproject
• Four year project funded by The Danish Industry Foundation (okt. 2014-18).
• The project includes both large and SME’s with different types of products/core
processes (OEM’s and subcontractors of components and materials).
• We build on a pre-project carried out in the spring of 2014.
• Dissimination activities are expected to reach 200 companies with around 15
case studies and one or more longitudinal field studies.

Competitiveness is the capability to
create value
• Competitiveness aims at qualifying as
a supplier and winning the order
• It deals with outcompeting competitors
• Productivity is just one factor
Competitiveness is a cross-
disciplinary issue
CBS brings together research and
practice across fields and industries

Lock in customers
Sale of equipment at low cost to profit from spare parts and

Ownership vs. usage
Using rather than owning physical assets is more economically
sound for the customer and environment friendly for all
Global resource scarcity

Background and driving forces
Competitive advantage; from sustainable to temporary
by resilience, speed and reconfiguration of resources
• Danish companies are increasingly competing on global markets
• Information and communication technologies shape economics
• Innovation is happening at a much higher pace
• Technology is transferred
• Complex product and process systems are becoming more intertwined

Servitization - creating value
through the provision of services
Servitization is about competing through value propositions that
integrate services with product offerings
Servitization is about competing through value propositions that
integrate services with product offerings
Servitization based on
physical product:
- Adding services
- Offering functions
- Total solutions
Essentially it is about
‘interfering’ in your
customers’ processes
Selling an asset Providing recovery
Maximizing availability Offering outcomes
(See table 4 on page 10)

Services can have a large potential
for growing revenues and profits

expectations

Customer expectations Example
Selling an asset Quality and performance of

Minimum disruption in case of
equipment failure
Repair of equipment after
notification
Maximizing the
availability of an asset
Fault free equipment Provide remote and preventive
maintenance
Offering outcomes for
the customer
Assisting customers to achieve their
goals
Take over customer
functions/activities
A product goes into to the processes of the customer

Product-centered servitization
A portfolio of services is directly coupled to a product offering
• Products (goods) as a tangible commodity manufactured to be sold and quite
simplistically is capable of “falling on your toe”
• Services: “economic activity that does not result in ownership of a tangible asset”
• Servitization is “the increased offering of fuller market packages or “bundles” of
customer focussed combinations of goods, services, support, self-service and
knowledge in order to add value to core product offerings” (Vandermerwe and Rada, 1988)

Risks involved in servitization
Experiences from practice show mixed results on profit when firms
increase their service activities. Risks involved in servitization include:
Potential Risk Example
Recovery Lack of service infrastructure Involve partners, create service clusters
and networks
Availability Less revenue from service offerings Penetrate your installed base in order to
increase the adoption and capacity
utilization
Development Customer‐specific development costs Charge the design and the construction
of services separately and offer to
equalize them when the product is
purchased
Outsourcing Operational risks Risk pooling, transferring risk to
suppliers, integrate risks in pricing
mechanism

Calculating costs
Life Cycle Cost Analysis
Costs of a product’s entire life
Total Cost of Ownership
From price orientation to total cost
of owning a product

Understanding the customer’s
“make or buy” process
Typical customer needs Implications for the service provider
Focus on core activities Design services to seamlessly support and enhance the value of
customer’s core activities
Restructuring costs Evaluate the option of retaining product ownership and offering a
“leasing” service
Access to talent Adopt a customer centric focus and ability to offer expertise adapted
to customer needs
Reduce time to market Offer engineering and R&D capabilities as a service to the customer
and become a development partner
Manage risk Consider how scale, specialization and expertise can become a
valuable source of mitigating business risks
Manage capacity Increase flexibility of resources to mitigate fluctuations in demand
when customers procure services to manage capacity
Increase scalability Increase volume flexibility and ramp up speed

Addressing the servitization
paradox
An observed “service paradox” in which revenues earned by the
manufacturer may increase but profits actually decrease with greater
servitization.

Setting strategic direction
Define and communicate a clear
service strategy and initiate the
necessary investments to align the
strategic direction with operational
capabilities
Adjusting organizational
design
Create the organizational
arrangements to support the
development, sale and delivery of
services and align performance
measures and objectives
Developing capabilities
Develop capabilities for designing
and delivering services, including
technical expertise, customer
orientation and Information
Technology
Establishing a service culture
Provide managerial attention to the
values supporting service design
and delivery such as customer
orientation, heterogeneity and
flexibility
