Product-service systems (PSS), integrating physical products and services, currently play a crucial role in sustainable economies. In addition to the highly competitive global economy, the emergence of new digital paradigms is supporting the shift toward servitization. Although the great potential of such paradigms is recognized by both practice and research, their implications for PSS are not yet clear. In particular, features of Internet of Things (IoT), such as total connectedness and ubiquity of smart sensors and actuators, provide various new opportunities for PSS. This study explores such opportunities by conducting structured literature review and 13 interviews. We organize the findings in two folds: First, we introduce four degrees of IoT involvement in PSS business models and elaborate the opportunities that they create for different types of PSS. Second, we present the key technologies and approaches that IoT provides concerning PSS lifecycle management.

Manufacturers have started to adopt service as their offering mix in order to overcome slow growth, declining profitability and commoditization in the pure product market. Several companies like IBM and GE have shown that services would be a new source of revenue and a steady growth. Service covers a wide spectrum from a simple add-on service like repair to complex outsourcing service. Service adoption is a challenge for manufacturers who have been accustomed to product making and selling. Making, proposing, delivering and evaluating services needs a different and new capabilities for manufacturers. And service transition is closely related with capabilities which make a transition with a less risk. In this paper, a taxonomy of efforts is developed which build on the service transition literatures and cases. We provide a phased service transition strategy for manufacturers and service capabilities needed at each phases.

기술 발전과 산업 생태계 변화로 고객의 욕구를 만족시킬 수 있는 서비타이제이션(servitization)의 필요성이 강조되고 있다. 본 연구는 첨단기술이 융합된 자동차를 이용하고 있는 사용자의 사용전 기대와 사용 후 만족이 지속사용의도에 어떠한 영향을 주는지 살펴보기 위해 기대일치모형(Expectation Confirmation Model)을 적용하여 연구하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 첨단기술기반 자동차와 관련된 제품과 서비스를 제공하는 기업이 연관 기관과 협력하여 빠르게 변화하는 기술과 환경을 소비자에게 전달할 수 있도록 기초자료를 제공하는데 있다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위해 첨단기술이 포함된 자동차를 이용하는 사용자를 대상으로 자료를 수집하였고 수집된 자료의 분석은 SPSS 26.0 프로그램과 SMART PLS 2.0의 통계패키지를 이용하여 가설을 검증하고 논리적 근거를 알아보았다. 이에 본 연구는 사용자의 사용 전, 후 관계에 대한 기대일치(Expectation Confirmation), 지각된 용이성(Perceived Ease), 지각된 유용성(Perceived Usefulness), 사용자만족(User Satisfaction), 습관적 이용(Habitual Use), 지속사용의도(Continuance Usage Intention)를 사용하여 모델을 구성하였고, 가설 검증결과 모두 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 검증되었다. 첨단기술을 접목한 자동차의 사용은 일상생활의 편의와 업무능률의 향상을 가져오며, 사용자의 만족과 더 나아가 지속사용의도로 이어지는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구의 시사점으로 새로운 자동차 시장의 확대와 더 편리한 기능, 많은 기능을 가진 자동차를 쉽고 편리하게 사용할 수 있도록 자동차 회사와 연관 기관의 지속적인 성장과 변화의 흐름을 파악하는데 영향을 줄 것으로 기대한다.

Due to the development of information technology, Convergence and Creative Economy became hot issues. For example, products become more intelligent and services are likely to be connected and integrated around core services or provided as bundle solution. Meanwhile products and services are integrated in the context of mutual supplementation, which leads to Servitization of Products and Productization of Services in many industries. Previous studies have addressed Convergence with different terms and definitions such as Convergent, Multicategory Multifunctional Product, Clouding Service, Bundle and so on from one perspective such as consumers, suppliers or technology according to a wide range of academic approaches. Thus, this study attempted to suggest the most typical convergence products released in the convergence environment and categorize those products. Furthermore, this study has pointed out the problems in the New Product Development Framework discussed in the studies on marketing by taking the situation of the public sector into account and then suggested "New Service Development Framework in the Public Sector" that are different from traditional e-Gov. approach basically and will enable the government to create public information service and provide them to enterprises or citizens. It also emphasized the importance of Business Conceptualization Stage in the framework; argued that there is a necessity of an integrative study from the perspective of technology on the basis of the approach from the perspective of marketing and Policy such as a study of consumer behaviors, design and marketing channel and Policy Integration for the development and dissipation; and furthermore suggested the cases-the development/Diffusion of Transportation Card Service in Seoul and CFC (Call for Collaboration) in Singapore-in order to verify the framework. There is a need to supplement New Service Development Framework so it is able to reflect the distinct characteristics of the public sector from the academic perspective and be used as practical guidelines for SI (System Integration) business to shift into IT Service business. Last but not the least, this study has suggested the limitations and the directions for the future studies.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test and verify on the interrelationship among Service Quality, and Customer Satisfaction and Customer Loyalty in the Humidifier Goods industry. Especially, we study on the relative importance of each CS variables by distribution channel. Nowadays, most of manufacturing companies are proceeding the product servitization, which is combined service contents with product characteristics in the field of manufacturing industries. Methods: We surveyed humidifier purchaser about the some of CS variables and analyzed it using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 21.0 as a statistical analysis tool. We use the frequency analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, multi-regression analysis and structural equation modeling analysis for our empirical study. Results: As the result of study, we find that Service Quality(SQ) influence Customer Satisfaction(CS) and CS influence Customer Loyalty(CL). Also, we verify that CS works mediate interaction on the effects between SQ and CL. And there are the significant relative effect of SQ to Customer Satisfaction in some of distribution channel. Conclusion: Finally, we make certain that the market size of the Humidifier goods industry will be increased rapidly. And the distribution channe l is more important to medium and small-sized enterprise. So, we have to pay attention to the study on the distribution channel of the Humidifier goods industry. And then, we expect more researches and studies on Service Quality and Customer Satisfaction in the field of manufacturing industries.
