Abstract

To remain viable, manufacturers have bundled equipment sales with support services. This provision has been commonly referred to as the servitization of manufacturing (Neely, 2008), a stream of research often dealt with through manufacturing literature. Servitization has been discussed widely within the literature, frequently through an examination of the move by manufacturers to generate greater returns by providing through life support for their products (Vandermerwe and Rada, 1988; Matthyssens and Vandembempt, 1998; Anderson and Narus, 1995). As manufacturers add ‘service’ to the body of product-centric knowledge, the tendency is to treat service activities as an extension of the body of knowledge in manufacturing and engineering.
