to products has been around a long time

• Servitisation = big change
– Structure: Process (what)
– Culture: People (how)
• 60-70% of change initiatives fail
– Underestimation of change factors at all levels of
the organisation
• Integrate customer into the organisation

Servitisation strategy
Decide a vision:
WHO do we want to be to our customers?

Develop a strategy:
WHAT do we need to do?

Deliver the plan:


HOW do we implement the transformation?

26
Pathways to Service Profitability
Potential change obstacles
• Decide
– Lack of sense of urgency
– No vision
– No guiding coalition
• Design
– No obstacle removal process
– No long-term staying power
• Deliver
– Under-communication
– No short term wins
– Shouting victory too soon
Based on John Kotter: Why change initiatives fail Harvard Business Review 2007/1

27
Pathways to Service Profitability
The Servitisation journey
• Decide
– Service centric or product centric?
– What does service value mean to our customers?
• Design
– Services to provide value to the customer
– Compelling argument to your clients
– Industrialised service operations
– Effective sales processes and customer centric culture
• Deliver
– Execute services strategy with purpose & leadership support
– Measure results: benchmarks and KPIs
