• Service as value co-creation
– The application of knowledge for mutual benefits (outcomes) when entities interact
• Service innovations scale benefits
– Role of platforms (tech, biz, social)
• Service experience
– Expectations, Interactions, Outcomes

Basics
Service science is the study of service systems and value-cocreation interactions and outcomes, through the lens of a service-dominant logic (SDL) worldview
– All economic interactions are direct or indirect service interactions
– Goods are vehicles for indirect service interactions
SDL (Vargo & Lusch) defines service as…
– the application of competence (e.g., knowledge) for the benefit of another entity
– slightly more specific, easier to understand
Service science (Spohrer & Maglio) defines service as…
– value-cocreation interactions among service system entities
– slightly more general, harder to understand

Service Systems Thinking: ABC’s
A. Service Provider
• Individual
• Institution
• Public or Private
C. Service Target: The reality to be
transformed or operated on by A,
for the sake of B
• Individuals or people, dimensions of
• Institutions or business and societal organizations,
organizational (role configuration) dimensions of
• Infrastructure/Product/Technology/Environment,
physical dimensions of
• Information or Knowledge, symbolic dimensions
B. Service Customer
• Individual
• Institution
• Public or Private

Ownership Relationship(B on C)
Forms of
Service Relationship(A & B co-create value)
Forms of
Responsibility Relationship(A on C)
Forms of
Service Interventions

“Service is the application of
competence for the benefit
of another entity.”
Example Provider: College (A)
Example Target: Student (C)
Discuss: Who is the Customer (B)?
- Student? They benefit…
- Parents? They often pay…
- Future Employers? They benefit…
- Professional Associations?
- Government, Society?

Service system entities configure four types of resources
First foundational premise of service science:
– Service system entities dynamically configurefour types of resources
– Resources are the building blocks of entity architectures
Named resources are:– Physical or
– Not-Physical
– Physicist resolve disputes
Named resources have:– Rights or
– No Rights
– Judges resolve disputes

Service system entities calculate value from multiple stakeholder perspectives
Second foundational premise of service science
– Service system entities calculate value from multiple stakeholder perspectives
– Value propositions are the building blocks of service networks
A value propositions can be viewed as a request from one service system to another to run an algorithm (the value proposition) from the perspectives of multiple stakeholders according to culturally determined value principles.
The four primary stakeholder perspectives are: customer, provider, authority, and competitor
– Citizens: special customers
– Entrepreneurs: special providers
– Parents: special authority
– Criminals: special competitors

Service system entities reconfigure access rights to resources by mutually agreed to value propositions
Third foundational premise of service science
– Service system entities reconfigure access rights to resources by mutually agreed to value propositions
– Access rights are the building blocks of the service ecology (culture and information)
Access rights
– Access to resources that are owned outright (i.e., property)
– Access to resource that are leased/contracted for (i.e., rental car, home ownership via mortgage, insurance policies, etc.)
– Shared access (i.e., roads, web information, air, etc.)
– Privileged access (i.e., personal thoughts, inalienable kinship relationships, etc.)

Service system entities interact to create ten types of outcomes
Four possible outcomes from a two player game
ISPAR generalizes to ten possible outcomes
– win-win: 1,2,3
– lose-lose: 5,6, 7, maybe 4,8,10
– lose-win: 9, maybe 8, 10

Service system entities are physical-symbol systems
Service is value cocreation.
Service system entities reason about value.
Value cocreation is a kind of joint activity.
Joint activity depends on communication and grounding.
Reasoning about value and communication are (often) effective symbolic processes.

Competitive Parity – Achieved.
The NFL has spent the last two decades touting its parity—the idea that any team can win on any given Sunday (or Monday or Thursday). But this year, parity has truly run wild.
… here's the wackiest thing: Through six weeks, 11 of the NFL's 32 teams are 3-3. The Journal asked the statistical gurus of Massey-Peabody Analytics to run a coin-flip simulation…

Smarter Planet = Smarter “Service” Systems
INSTRUMENTED
We now have the ability to measure, sense and see the exact condition of practically everything.
INTERCONNECTED
People, systems and objects can communicate and
interact with each other in entirely new ways.
INTELLIGENT
We can respond to changes quickly and accurately, and get better results
by predicting and optimizing for future events.

National Science FoundationA feature of a service system is the participation and cooperation of the customer in the service and its delivery. A service system then requires an integration of knowledge and technologies from a range of disciplines, often including engineering, computer science, social science, behavioral science, and cognitive science, paired with market knowledge to increase its social benefit.

“When we combined the impact of Harvard’s direct spending on payroll, purchasing and construction – the indirect impact of University spending – and the direct and indirect impact of off-campus spending by Harvard students – we can estimate that Harvard directly and indirectly accounted for nearly $4.8 billion in economic activity in the Boston area in fiscal year 2008, and more than 44,000 jobs.”

“a service system is a
human-made system to improve
provider-customer interactions
and value-cocreation outcomes,
by dynamically configuring resource
access via value propositions,
most often studied by many disciplines,
one piece at a time.”
“service science is
the transdisciplinary study of
service systems &
value-cocreation”
The ABC’s:
The provider (A)
and a customer (B)

A Framework for Global Civil Society
Daniel Patrick Moynihan said nearly 50 years ago: "If you want to
build a world class city, build a great university and wait 200
years." His insight is true today – except yesterday's 200 years
has become twenty. More than ever, universities will generate and
sustain the world’s idea capitals and, as vital creators,
incubators, connectors, and channels of thought and
understanding, they will provide a framework for global civil
society.
