“…In this paper we discuss BMI in the context of business networks, which are promoted in literature to be the leading way of organising profitable, agile business in future [9], [75]. Building on our experiences in two action research studies, we present a conceptual framework for the co-BMI process where the parties are negotiating on BM for their joint network.…”

Abstract. This paper presents a process framework for innovating joint business models (co-BM) for multiple companies. Our framework describes the change management that should be carried out in parallel to the rigorous analysis and development of the business model details. With two illustrative cases we show that fruitful co-BM creation process in networks requires both development of the model itself, but also organizational innovation processes including mutual learning and harmonisation of operations. We claim that by understanding this dual process and its key facets might help (1) to coordinate the practical BM creation projects better and (2) to analyse which BM related decisions contribute or hinder the joint development project.

“…Successful cold chain logistics calls for automated and efficient monitoring and control of all operations. The monitoring should allow the establishment of better knowledge of the cold chain, the detection of weakness and the optimization of the whole process, all things that potentially would have a significant impact on the supply chain (Vervest et al, 2005). The cold chain is involved in many industries as it was mentioned previously.…”

“…This perspective is supported by practical examples: for instance, the service mashup platform ProgrammableWeb reported that 73% of all listed APIs exposed REST interfaces by May 2011, thus foretelling the trend to an Internet of interoperable Web services. 3 This technically-driven development gives rise to a new level of customization. Complex services involve the assembly and invocation of several specialized service modules offered by a multitude of expert partners in order to accomplish a multi-step business functionality [10].…”

“…Due to growing modularization and simplicity, services are composable in a plug-and-play fashion [3], [4] in order to be rearranged into value-added complex services. The process of composing and rearranging existing and newly created service components enables agile innovation processes [5].…”

Based on the graph-based Vickrey auction in service value networks introduced by Blau et al. [1], we analyze strategic behavior of service providers in networked formations regarding their opportunities to foster bilateral cooperative agreements. Introducing enforceable ex-ante agreements between adjacent service providers in a Service Value Network (SVNs), we investigate beneficial investment strategies that aim at reducing communication cost between sequentially composed services. The contribution at hand is twofold: Based on the foundation of SVNs and the efficient allocation of services through a graph-based Vickrey auction as presented in Blau et al. [1], [2] we (i) develop a model of cooperation and show analytically that, in the overall non-cooperative setting at hand, our model of cooperation implements a mutual weakly dominant strategy for adjacent service providers to reduce the cost of communication by customizing their service offerings. Transferring our results into practice, we (ii) demonstrate the valuable properties of our model of cooperation by providing a comprehensive application scenario.
