Abstract

In literature the positive economic effects for suppliers and customers of Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPS2) have often been described. However; provider companies often struggle when it comes to realize winwin potentials. Therefore; an early stage assessment is needed to allow companies to forecast benefits; risks; costs and profits of the new business model in early stages of IPS2 planning.

It will be shown how business plans can be used to describe and assess the process; requirements and pitfalls in creating added value via IPS2. The results of two case studies of machine tool manufacturers turning into solution providers are reported.
