Zooming-in on digital servitization

Advanced digital services as a multi-layered innovation process for manufacturers

This work explores the process through which manufacturing firms pursue a transition from product-oriented to product- and service-oriented business models. The object of analysis is the so-called Digital Servitization, i.e. the effort of manufacturers to exploit digital technologies to integrate a product offering with a series of digital-based services. The book aims to contribute to the literature on Digital Servitization by providing an integrated interpretative model to investigate the phenomenon. Taking a zoom-in approach to a case study analysis, the book provides insights into digital servitization with implications for academics and practitioners.

This work explores the process through which manufacturing firms pursue a transition from product-oriented to product-and service-oriented business models. The object of analysis is the so-called Digital Servitization, which is the effort of manufacturers to exploit digital technologies to integrate a product offering with a series of digitally-based services. Although Digital Servitization represents one of the most adopted business model innovations in recent times, the related literature still presents some gaps, such as a silo-thinking observation of the phenomenon, focused on the intra- or inter-organizational implications separately, and a need for longitudinal studies. The goal of this book is to contribute to Digital Servitization literature by, on the one hand, providing an integrated interpretative model to investigate the phenomenon and, on the other, testing its validity via the in-depth empirical investigation of a case study firm. By adopting a zooming-in approach to the case study analysis, the book provides insights into Digital Servitization with implications for academics and practitioners.
