“…Al-Ashaab et al [2] have implemented the knowledgebased environment framework KBE-ProVal (Knowledge-Based Environment to Support Product Design Validation) to support product design validation. Akasaka et al [1] have extend product design to Product-Service-System (PSS) and proposed a knowledge-based PSS design support method.…”

“…For example, designers should adopt a holistic view and learn service engineering methods in addition to product engineering methods (Akasaka et al, 2012). In the case of use-and resultoriented PSS, these offerings provide social benefits for consumers because vehicle users do not have to invest upfront large amount of money to drive reliable and efficient vehicles (Mont et al, 2006;Williams, 2006).…”

AbstractGrowth of global sales of new trucks in emerging economies is substantial however, in China the growth of sales is expected to be only 1% for 2014-2024. The limited sales growth forecast and an intense market competition make it imperative for truck manufacturers in China to diversify their revenue earnings through service-based business models for the Chinese market.Typically, Chinese service based business model need to be sustainable by considering environmental and social factors in the manufacturer's business model. This paper reviews existing product-service systems (PSS) and service-based business models in the automotive sector to identify how truck manufacturers could reorient their current business model with respect to the Chinese context to enhance customer satisfaction, profitability and sustainability.The analysis indicates that most of the studies in the automotive sector have focused on product-oriented or use-oriented business models with respect to car segment specifically in the developed markets. Besides, sustainability issues related to vehicle end-of-life management are rarely considered. Our findings suggest that the Chinese truck sector needs an integrated result-oriented PSS business models which could be implemented in other developing countries.

“…It includes a view editor, an activity blueprint editor, and a behavior blueprint editor ). Application examples are reported both by Sakao et al (2009), with regards of the design of payper-wash service, and by Akasaka (2012), for the design of an accommodation service. Isaksson et al (2009) provide another example that relates to the use of CAD to enable service visualization in an engineering design environment.…”

Emerging from a study in the European aerospace industry, this paper identifies a gap in the way value-related information is communicated to designers of hardware in the preliminary stages of Product Service System (PSS) design. To fit this gap a Lifecycle Value Representation Approach, named LiVReA, that uses color-coded 3D CAD models to enable value information to be translated into visual features, is presented. Such approach aims at enhancing designers' awareness of the value contribution of an early design concept on the overall PSS offer by complementing requirements-based information with criteria reflecting the fulfillment of customers and system value. The paper details the development of the approach, its underlying rationale, the results of preliminary validation activities and the potential for industrial application in the light of the currently available PSS representation tools.
