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.

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.

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".

Pricing Of Services
Introduction
Pricing or Price is the key element in the traditional marketing mix (the 4Ps) and also the enhanced marketing mix (the 7 Ps). This is the element which earns revenue. This is highly critical because this is the strategy which can make or mar the business.
The firms must make it both ways –the price must
(1) get profits for the firm, and
(2) give value to its customers.
Names of Service Pricing
Pricing for goods is easy and straight forward, while for services it is complicated, may be controlled by several authorities, varies with time, place, people, etc.
For goods the price has a single name “PRICE”, but for services it has several names like :

The purpose of this paper is to describe and provide a guide to design and price a service offering based on customer value. The customer value proposition framework helps to convert discovered customer specific value into tangible and intangible service offering. The service offering is priced according to quantified customer values (both tangibles and intangibles). This paper describes the process of designing and supporting value-based pricing of advanced services through quantification of customer value. In particular, the framework helps to convert value offered into quantified customer-specific value, justifying the price difference between offerings and the best available alternative on the market.

Pricing In Marketing - UNIT-5 & 6-PRICING.pptetebarkhmichale
The law of attraction is the most powerful force in the universe. If you work against it, it can only bring you pain and misery. Successful people know this but have kept it hidden from the lower class for centuries because they did not want to share their wealth. The universal law of attraction is simple. We attract whatever we choose to give our attention to. If we focus on bad things, we will attract more bad things. But the minute you stop focusing on bad and focus on good, you change the pattern and now good things start coming your way.
If we knew the law of attraction and applied it in our lives daily, we would have so much power and control that it would be scary. We could have what we wanted, and when we wanted it. We would have total control of our lives. If you think of yourself as a powerful attractor, you will attract more of what you want in your life, simply by thinking about it, then acting on it. But there is one ingredient you cannot leave out or the law of attraction won't work.
When we think of an object in our mind, we then send that image to our hearts and act on it with emotion. A formula makes this easy to follow: TFAR (Thoughts, Feelings, Actions, and Results) When we take necessary action, the universe shows up and gives us the results we wanted.
The law of attraction works by performing three steps. And these steps must be done for the process to work. These steps are:
1. Getting clear. You must know what it is you want or else you won’t get it. The universe won’t know what you are asking for, so how can it deliver?
2. Vibrate to the level of energy corresponding to what you want. If you want something and you think about it, feel it, and act on it, you must keep that level of energy going until you achieve the results you are after.
3. Attract what you want like a magnet. If you focus on what you want but don’t allow it to come into your life, it won’t. You have to be willing to accept it and acknowledge it. Then when you act, it will occur.
Whatever you do during the course of a day, whatever thoughts you think about, you are attracting. If you use it every day, regularly, and practice it this way, you will eventually find that it becomes a habit that you will subconsciously practice.
You may not believe it, but the steps you need to take are easy. But you must do them, believe in them, and believe in yourself, or they will not work. Are you ready to get tuned into the universe and get clear? Can you work in harmony with the laws of the universe and become successful?
If so here are the steps you need to follow:
1. Get clear. You must know exactly what it is you want. If you are in doubt, vague, or too general, you won’t get anywhere. You must know exactly what it is you want first. Only then will you be able to focus and concentrate on that thought?
2. Visualize what you want and vibrate to it. You must form a mental image in your mind so you can see it as if you had it in your possession. For women, you can do the

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.

Background
Value
as
a
fundamental
of
service
pricing
What
does
the
literature
tell
us?
-‐ That
buyer’s
choice
is
dependent
on
price
is
an
oversimplification
of
the
problem
-‐ Pricing
has
an
impact
on
customer
satisfaction
-‐ Pricing
for
services
is
dependent
on
situations
-‐ Pricing
must
reflect
functional
and
emotional
aspects
-‐ Pricing
and
service
scopes
are
related
The
use
of
value
must
be
a
central
aspect
in
the
pricing
objectives
“What
is
the
difference
in
worth
of
the
two
offerings
to
my
firm,
and
how
does
it
compare
to
the
difference
in
their
prices?”

Background
Pricing
objectives
are
the
basis
for
profitable
decisions
What
does
the
literature
tell
us?
-‐ Pricing
objectives
are
quantitative
and
qualitative
-‐ Sales,
profits,
market
share…
-‐ Relationships,
competitors…
-‐ The
objectives
must
be
understood
within
the
firm
The
objectives
of
pricing
lead
to
different
operational
pricing
strategies
within
the
organization
”…objectives
of
pricing
are
to
determine
which
pricing
strategy
will
be
the
basis
for
profitable
decisions
as
a
result
of
company’s
overall
strategy”

categories
for

-‐ Pricing
methods:

Results
and
analysis
of
the
study
The
key
observations
from
the
analysis
were
Findings
confirmed
that
pricing
of
services
is
complex:
-‐ Different
pricing
models
help
with
margin
optimization
-‐ It
was
hard
to
move
away
from
a
cost-‐plus
model
-‐ Firms
had
a
desire
to
move
to
value-‐based
pricing
but
were
unsure
of
the
implications
-‐ The
buyer
might
be
more
advanced
in
pricing
model
innovation
than
the
seller
-‐ Pricing
also
provides
a
focus
on
measuring
customer
value
Within
a
firm
there
should
be
an
alignment
between
the
pricing
objectives,
pricing
strategies
and
tools.
“Such
tools
are
needed
to
create
a
value
based
pricing
model.”
Anderson
et
al.
(2009).
Firms are not
using information that could help them to identify the customer value

There
is
a
need

on
customer
value
creation
during
pricing
by
aligning
pricing
tools,
strategies
to
support
firms
pricing

Pricing

is
challenging

Pricing
was
treated
more
as
a

Many
