Abstract
This paper describes a process, based on Service Design tools, of product- and service-discovery that has been used in workshops with two Swiss small and medium-size firms based on an action research approach. Both of the firms were manufacturing high- quality products and under pressure on price. The use of individual Design Thinking tools had not provided a route to deliver the product- and service-innovation required. What was missing was a method to combine the individual tools to create a process. The leaders of the firms confirmed that the process that allowed them to expand their thinking from simply product development.
Services are mostly intangible so how do we measure service quality? Four points relating to quality in services will be discussed:
Why is service quality hard to measure?
Measuring service quality
Creating a system to measure service quality
A model for measuring service quality
The use of equipment life-cycle analysis to identify new service opportunitiesShaun West
This paper describes a methodology that has been used successfully to assist two manufacturers in identifying opportunities for developing services based on the equipment they sell. This approach helps to link both product and service development in a more holistic manner.

Service pricing strategies for maintenance servicesShaun West
EUROMA 2016 conferance paper:
The objective of this paper is to identify and describe the maintenance service pricing models used by firms servicing industrial equipment. Today, price pressure in this market has been seen to be increasing with changes in customer buying behaviors. This pricing pressure confirms the need to focus on customer value when pricing (Anderson et al., 2006). Value pricing has been seen to be selectively successful in the B2B environment. Through analysis of different buying behaviors in different industrial segments this paper highlights difficulties and provides guidance on how to overcome them.
Value based pricing in the capital equipment aftermarketShaun West
10th Copperberg aftermarket Conference, 2016, Weisbaden keynote presentation.
This presentation shows what is needed when you move to value-based pricing in the aftermarket. The move requires more structure in pricing than is the case with simple cost plus. Customer value pricing is about improving the customer experience with pricing and ensuring that the supplier better understands their customer's value creation process. A visual design thinking approach is used to help understand the customer and estimate their "willingness to pay".

Service Co-Design: Using Participatory Design methods to Empower Users
NEASIS&T Conference 2017
Service Design: The Holistic Experience
January 12th 2017
Big data innovation conferance, Frankfurt 2016
The digitalisation of businesses and the expectations associated with it grow every year, however for smaller manufacturing firms this is creating problems. Based on direct observations from working with manufacturers, this presentation will show how the application of big data is complex for these firms and it risks creating major problems. Short case studies will be used to highlight these problems, based around the following three themes.
- analysis and exploitation of existing data;
- interconnectivity of equipment within the customer’s environment;
- data collection and management.
These problems are preventing the uptake of new business models by these manufacturing firms that could provide better outcomes for their customers.
Designing products against customer jobsMartin Jordan
How do you create successful products? By asking customers what they want? By matching market trends? Or rather by understanding the jobs that users try to get done? Believing it’s the latter, Hannes Jentsch and I gave a talk at Berlin ProductTank in July 2015 discussing how to design products against customer jobs.
In the talk we shared our experience from applying Jobs-to-be-Done tools in agile environments at Nokia’s HERE business for 2 years. We described JTBD as a framework, mind as well as set of tools and methods. Furthermore, we mapped and presented key JTBD tools against the lean product development process and discussed them in detail.
Experience Design Methods for Product / Service DevelopmentKetut Sulistyawati
Products and services that deliver good user experience have been shown to be more successful in the market. User experience design is a practice of transforming user insights and emotion to create products and services that are useful, easy to use, and enjoyable. The process requires in-depth understanding of the customers and inter-disciplinary collaboration to ensure connected experiences across customer touch points.
In this talk, I will discuss various User Experience Design methods that are commonly used for product and service development. I will cover the pros and cons for the methods, and how they are often tweaked in practice to meet the contextual constraints in the industry.

Going Big : Why Companies Need to Focus on Operational Analytics Capgemini
Given that digitization had such a transformative effect on customer behavior and relationships, it is perhaps not surprising that many organizations focused their digital transformation efforts on the customer experience front-end. However, in the race to focus on the customer, it was all too easy to ignore operations. Our 2013 research with MIT Sloan Management Review found that while 40% of digital initiatives were focused on the customer experience, this dropped to 26% for operations.
Times are changing, however. Our latest survey of more than 600 executives from the US, Europe and China finds that over 70% of organizations now put more emphasis on operations than on consumer-focused processes for their analytics initiatives. Analytics in operations is increasingly seen as a strategic priority for organizations. Over 80% of respondents agreed that analytics in operations plays a pivotal role in driving profits or creating competitive advantage

A dive into DESIGN THINKING – Making products and services that people wantAndy McBride
Terms such as ‘design’, ‘design thinking’, ‘agile’ and ‘MVP’ are now casually talked about in many organisations. Beyond the buzzword bingo, there are real methodologies and approaches that can help all teams deliver great solutions. Like many organisations, QUT needs to respond quickly to the increasingly complex challenges of our internal audience with innovative solutions that are also feasible and viable. Over the past year QUT has taken a design thinking approach to developing its new service experience – HiQ. HiQ brings together service and communication teams, and integrates information, technology and physical spaces. The result is a personalised and consistent experience of QUT across our diverse internal audiences, that aims to engage with them wherever they are.

Value stream mapping for complex processes (innovation, Lean, service design) Teemu Toivonen
A value steam mapping method for complex processes, which integrates many theory of inventive problem solving and service design concepts to traditional Lean thinking. This method is especially suited for services and digital processes.
These are detailed notes from the visit at the Copenhagen's Danish Design Centre, which had on display a very informative exhibition on a model for a design-driven innovation, developed by the Danish Design Centre.
Design-driven Innovation (DIN) is a tool for developing better responses to complex challenges while ensuring implementation through a design-driven approach.
I was interested in the potential of this model for designing public communication.
The credit for all the information in this document goes to Danish Design Centre.
Design thinking is a new methodology with which we try to discover the feelings and the expectations of the customers during their journeys with the company. There is a step by step approach through which you can trace and apply in your company.
Human centered product design in actionVantageITes
Theoretical frameworks are great for helping us understand the intricate details involved in the design process. However, we can discuss these theories to high heaven, but unless they are implemented in your design process, leading product design transformation will be like building sandcastles in the air.

Define Before Diving: An intro to Product StrategyAnna Youngs
Watch webinar here: https://youtu.be/RbpGjNh9Mj0
Defining your product and what you expect from it can be as important as creating the product itself. It is what allows a company to align their strategic vision with short-term and long-terms results, allowing companies to reach their users and market in a more direct and clear way, instead of producing a product whose strategy is too general and ambiguous.
Lydia and Anna, Product Design Managers at Novoda, gave a talk at Codurance on the essential concepts of product strategy and the steps to a product definition, the key phases and importance of design thinking and the innovation value it adds plus research methods and tools to analyse the obtained information. We also learn about the huge value of clear communication and good practices when working with the rest of the team.
This talk provides an enriching and useful insight for companies and stakeholders looking for a more effective way of making their vision a reality and wanting to know more about the components of a good product strategy.
Smart Service DesignThe design of smart services in the world of people, pro...Shaun West
You should read this if:
... you want to understand how digital can enable new value propositions for your business
... you want to gain inspiration from real industrial cases
... you want to create a family of smart twin to help your business.
The handbook‘s purpose is to formalize the lessons learnt from an Innosuisse- funded project where over twenty different Digital Twin-based use cases were developed in collaboration between ten partners. During the project, we learnt many things: the Digital Twins helped us create new innovative smart services, formalize tacit knowledge, and improve decision-making. Perhaps most important was that the design of the Digital Twin was best achieved based on (business) questions. The Digital Twin enables the development of Smart Services within complex systems. For this reason, we called the project Smart Twins – not because of the incredible technology but because of the services they supported. The handbook includes sections describing innovation processes for Smart Services, the prototyping phases, and Digital Twin based business models. The handbook also provides hands-on descriptions on how to use methods, tools, and approaches while working on a project focusing on the development of Smart Services. The handbook focuses on complex product-service systems (PSS) composed of people, processes, and things. Product-service systems are all around us, and they are used on a day-to-day basis, e.g., smartphones; they consist of tangible products and many services. Some of the services are more visible than others, remembering that there cannot be (smart) products without a service of some description. Product-service systems can be complex, and with digitalization, complexity increases distinctly. Depending on perspectives, the focus can be on efficiency or out- comes. Considering such product-service systems, it is evident that boundaries are cross-functional and cross-organizational.

Foresighting the Future to Create Actionable InnovationShaun West
This presentation project is focused on foresight or longer-term radical innovation based on a planning model of three horizons, highly actionable. The presentation describes a model initially developed by the principal researchers at Stanford University for long-term innovation. The model has been proven to work with European firms (e.g., Airbus, Syngenta, Volvo); however, it requires further changes to adapt it to Switzerland. The dominant model addresses three innovation horizons, whereas we want to extend it to four horizons.
The presentation described some reflections on further refinements in the process, including adding Horizon 4, which we think should lead to a self-help “foresight cookbook”.
This will be achieved by describing the approaches through an action research approach that will allow for reflection from multiple workshops with both firms and mixed student groups (with up to 200 international students).
The work presented will describe three key results of the study: • an actionable foresight innovation process;
some of the radical innovations that have come out of the processes;
• clarify how this can help firms be more innovative in a changing environment.
The weakness within the firms of the approach has been associated with the “innovation readiness and capacity” of the firm. The researchers consider that this needs to be measured so that innovation can be more readily accepted. To do this they present an innovation readiness check (based on a survey methodology) to help measure this key success factor.
Value propositions enabled by digital twins in the context of servitization v002Shaun West
Purpose: The motivation of this paper is to investigate how digital twins can enable the design of new value propositions in digitally enabled servitization. This is important, as the application of this technology is an opportunity to deliver new value propositions for customers, and for the supplier to gain deeper understanding of the actual performance of the equipment (Kowalkowski and Ulaga, 2017). This builds upon the assessment of service value co-creation supported by digital twin technologies (Meierhofer & West, 2019).
Design/Methodology/Approach: Ten cases have been assessed in this paper using different dimensions, and a cross-case analysis to consider value co-creation, value measures, support to the value proposition, and the servitization context. All of the cases are from an Innosuisse-supported project in Switzerland and were selected for their diversity.
Findings: Classifying the digital twins by service proved useful to understand each one and its position within the business system. Knowing which business functions the twin supports helps to identify and confirm value co-creation opportunities as well as the possible areas impacted. It also provides different servitization perspectives that can support new and disruptive models, which is helpful for firms looking for new services to support their customers. The lifecycle perspective confirms the links between different phases and can provide new insight for the development of digital twins. The cross case analysis confirmed that a digital twin could support the development of new value positions within the context of servitization, as well as allow others (e.g., installers or asset owners) to develop and sell their own value solutions.

Hidden services in the lighting industry - from free to feeShaun West
The purpose of this paper is to identify hidden services that were given away for free with the product and create a new service offering for a manufacturer that sells luminaires (e.g., lamps and lighting systems) to electrical installers. To identify the services that are given for free with the product, a survey was developed, targeting Swiss electrical installers, to analyze the pre- and post-sales activities that the firm delivered. The identification of the intangibles was initially undertaken by creating a journey for the pre-sales, post-sales and execution phases of typical transactions, based on interviews with the employees and supported by the literature research. The survey (n=68) provided insights into the intangibles that the firm delivered based on the analysis of perceived importance and satisfaction. Further, insights were obtained from five interviews with customers. The analysis of the survey and the interviews identified services that customers valued; service definitions were created for each of the 'hidden services' that were identified from the analysis. Using a modular approach to service definitions, two extreme modular offers were developed: a minimalistic offering and an 'inclusive' offering for the pre- and post- sales; both had options built on standard modules.

-‐ Complex
and
time
consuming
for
the
firms
The
firms
were
getting
sucked
into
the
commodity
trap
Engineering
design
-‐ Supported
product
development
-‐ More
value
when
needs
were
well
know
-‐ Focused
on
the
tangible
aspects
-‐ Difficult
to
integrate
the
intangible
service

more
insight
to
customer
problems
Design
Thinking…
-‐ is
tolerant
to
failure
-‐ embraces
risk
taking
-‐ sharing/supportive
learning
environment
-‐ can
help
simplify
and
humanize
situations
-‐ helps
people
to
deal
with
ambiguity
But
the
firms
found
Design
Thinking
disjointed
The
approach
focuses
on
the
user’s
experiences,
particularly
the
emotional
ones

Introduction
Identification
of
the
users,
customers
and
stakeholders
through
ecosystem
analysis
-‐ In
industrial
firms
the
supply
chain
is
is
complex
-‐ Identifying
the
user
is
very
difficult
-‐ Design
Thinking
focuses
on
the
’user’
-‐ Ecosystem
mapping
helps
to
find
the
’user’
-‐ Important
to
understand
the
interactions
between
actors
-‐ A solution
demands
the
customer
to
be
identified
The
users
can
then
be
’empathy
mapped’
In
the
complex
ecosystems
ecosystem
mapping
can
help
identify
the
’user’

Introduction
Identification
of
the
users
needs
through
persona
analysis
and
empathy
mapping
-‐ Persona
analysis
and
empathy
mapping
provide
’user’
emotional
input
-‐ In
workshop
provides
a
visual
tool
to
capture
input
-‐ Helps
everyone
to
understand
the
user’s
experiance
and
share
the
problem
-‐ Gap
analysis
in
empathy
mapping
provides
deeper
understanding
of
the
’user’
The
results
can
be
transferred
to
Osterwalder’s
customer
value
proposition
Empathy
mapping
can
be
effective
in
a
workshop
environment
to
help
share
a
common
understanding

Introduction
Job-‐to-‐be-‐done
creates
understanding
into
the
customers
processes
-‐ The
’job’ is
considered
the
fundamental
unit
-‐ Helps
to
target
the
solution
to
the
’job’
-‐ Integrates
understanding
of
customer
processes
-‐ Import
to
understand
the
customer
situation
-‐ Focuses
on
the
outcome
the
outcomes
The
results
can
be
transferred
to

needed
to
focus
on
the

Introduction
Development
of
the
customer
value
proposition
in
a
visual
form
Customer
side
(or
problem
definition)
-‐ Defined
the
empathy
maps
and
job-‐to-‐be-‐done
-‐ This
captures
the
tangibles
and
intangibles
Supplier
side
(solution
formulation)
-‐ Brainstorm
to
find
possible
solutions
-‐ Defines
the
supplier
solution
-‐ captured
the
solution
in
the
more
holistic
way
Gaps
between
the
two
sides
of
the
value
proposition
are
easily
identified
visually
Using
this
theory
a
prototype
process
was
developed
example
from
images.google
9. Dr
Shaun

Dr
Silvio
Di
Nardo
Methodology
A
five
step
approach
was
used
in
the
workshops
The
objective
was
to
create
a
simple
process
that
could
be
used
within
the
firm
Customer
identification
via
ecosystem
analysis
Empathy
mapping
for
(2)
key
customers
Customer’s
job-‐to-‐be-‐
done
Customer
value
proposition
-‐
customer
side
Customer

proposition
-‐
supplier
side

Customer
identification
via
ecosystem
analysis
took
longer
than
expected
From
the
ecosystem
maps
key
’users’
or
customers
were
identified
for
further
analysis
Findings
-‐ The
groups
were
able
to
sketch
their
ecosystems
-‐ The
groups
identified
key
non-‐customer
actors
-‐ The
multiplicity
of
customer
touchpoints
identified
-‐ Direct
vs
indirect
channels
were
visualised
Improvements
-‐ More
time
should
be
given
for
this
activity
-‐ improved
facilitation
needed
initially
“…
we
found
clarity
with
the
ecosystem,
this
is
the
first
time
we
have
seen
it
drawn
out”

the
two
key
customers
identify
intangibles
The
pains
and
gains
could
be
transferred
to
the
customer
side
of
the
value
proposition
Findings
-‐ Customers
considered
customers
as
plural
-‐ Creating
the
empathy
maps
was
initially
problematic
-‐ Mixed
groups
ensured
active
sharing
-‐ Pains/gains
were
quickly
identified
-‐ Helped
the
groups
to
move
beyond
the
price
-‐ Learnt
more
about
the
intangibles
Improvements
-‐ One
map
for
every
key
actor
is
required
“…
empathy
mapping
helped
us
learn
that
we
can
really
help
our
customers
with
the
intangible
aspects”

Customer’s
job-‐to-‐be-‐done
was
harder
than
expected
The
customer
jobs/tasks
could
be
transferred
to
the
customer
side
of
the
value
proposition
Findings
-‐ Initially
complex
with
many
discussions
-‐ Limited
understanding
the
customer’s jobs
-‐ Jobs
core
and
supporting
jobs
identified
-‐ Customer
understanding
was
improved
Improvements
-‐ Visuals
for
the
cradle-‐to-‐grave
equipment
life-‐cycle
-‐ Visuals
for
customer
touchpoints
“…
we
had
never
looked
at
our
customer’s
job-‐to-‐be-‐done
or
processes”

Customer
value
proposition
– customer
and
supplier
sides
Working
on
the
customer
side
in
isolation
fostered
a
customer
centric
approach
Findings
-‐ Groups
focused
on
the
customer’s
problem
-‐ Initial
draft
completed
very
efficiently
-‐ Discussions
of
the
current
situation
and
their
improved
customer
understanding
took
place
Improvements
-‐ Segmentation
for
different
actors
is
needed
“…
we
always

Customer
value
proposition
– customer
and
supplier
sides
New
solutions
were
identified
and
compared
with
the
customer side
Findings
-‐ Some
groups
returned
to
their
standard
offers
-‐ Matching
of
pains/pain
relievers
and
gains/gain
makers
took
place
automatically
-‐ Open
gaps
were
closed
once
they
were
pointed
out
Improvements
-‐ Important
to
have
the
customer
side
close
by
-‐ A
visual
to
support
where
value
is
create
is
required
-‐ A
focus
on
customer
willingness
to
pay
is
needed
“…we
have
marketable
concepts
after

Summary
of
findings
from
the
workshops
The
tools
supported
creativity
and
problem
solving
to
create
ideas
for
new
product-‐service
systems
Findings
-‐ Focused
on
the
customer
80%
of
the
time
-‐ Removed
silo-‐thinking
-‐ Shared
the
customer
problems
(tangible/intangible)
-‐ Groups
moved
beyond
making
products
’better’
-‐ Realised
that
they
were
providing
‘peace
of
mind’
-‐ Allowed
sharing
of
understandings
and
assumptions
Improvements
-‐ External
input
from
customers
should
be
included
-‐ Increased
facilitation
needed
-‐ Support
identification
of
value
“…
the
workshop
was
very
practical
and
we
have
tools
that
we

Results
and
discussion
Follow
up
with
the
firms
has
provided
initial
evidence
of
impact
New
product-‐service
systems
are
being
developed
by
the
firm
New
services
and
products
-‐ Customer
process
support
(supporting
job-‐to-‐be-‐
done)
via
an
app
has
been
developed
-‐ Design
of
a
product-‐service
system
for
one
of
its
commoditized
product
(white-‐space
innovation)
Sharing
knowhow
-‐ Ecosystem
mapping
assisted
the
sharing
of
market
know-‐how
and
customer
centric
thinking
-‐ Mixed
groups
working
-‐ improved
communications
-‐ provided
a
common
language
-‐ increased
understanding
of
customers'
jobs

Conclusions
The
approach
was
approached
however
there
are
improvements
to
be
made
The
practical
approach
was
appreciated
by
the
participants
Connecting
the
Service
Design
tools
together
to
create
a
process
was
exceedingly
helpful
Customer
journey
mapping
and
cradle-‐to-‐grave
life-‐cycles
would
have
improved
the
discussions
The
use
of
interactive
visuals
broke
down
barriers
within
the
firm,
creating
structured
discussions
with
a
common
understanding
and
language
allowing
a
move
away
from
new
product
development
More
use
of
examples/use
cases
are
needed
18. Dr
Shaun
West,
Dr
Silvio
Di
Nardo
Recommendations
More
workshops
should
be
held
with
changes
to
confirm
potential
improvements
Include
customer
journey
mapping
and
the
equipment
cradle-‐to-‐
grave
life-‐cycle
to
provide
more
input
Identify
where
customer
value
accrues
(eg,
top-‐line,
bottom-‐line
or
compliance/risk)
Include
an
assessment
of
the
customer
willingness
to
pay to
support
the
integration
of
pricing
It
is
recommended
that
more
workshops
are
held
using
the
‘standard
format’
with
a
wider
range
of
firms
so
that
a
wider
range
of
feedback
can
be
obtained
Invite
people
external
to
the
firm
to
the
workshop
