Understanding the Future Context of Services 2.0

1st pic.pngIn the era that we live now, customer expectations change according to business propositions. Contrary to previous belief, the term disruption at present indicates challenging the assumptions to deliver new value to customers and generate new revenue streams beyond the constraints of an existing operating model.

It is not a secret today that the profitability coming from hardware alone is a challenge. Most of the companies in the IoT industry will not be purely hardware companies. With IoT driving new business models, advanced services is arguably a game-changer. Industries and markets are transforming digitally. There is a need to new services design to be more flexible to constant change.

More than 70% of Fortune 500 companies have plans to offer their product as a service by 2020, following the trend for increased services. The value from a service-based business is expected to come from the need of monetizing the decision making and intelligence that can be extracted from the data produced by a platform centric business model that effectively integrates field devices, software analytics, data, algorithms, and cloud, driving industry transformation and reinventing the value proposition. Moreover, one must understand the convergence aspect and redefine the existing business proposition. The emergence of advanced ICT technologies has been promoting new inter-relationships and interdependencies, giving way to new business collaborations and partnerships in the future.

There is a need for time and adaptation across verticals to digest a new service platform centric business model. Some companies are adopting a “wait and see” approach for service-based models expecting to replicate successful companies. The future is rosy for advanced service-based business models.

Winners in the industry will be those organizations capable enough to innovate rapidly under a solution platform. Companies should adopt a robust data strategy. They should also aim to operate their business models through open partnerships with software analytics taking full advantage of advanced analytics. New revenue streams can be generated through these synergies.
