“…The methodology specifically takes into account the functionalities the products are meant to fulfil for the service delivery and their interactions with the services. Several practitioners stated that the functional centred design is a good methodology for the design of a product-service offering (Sas andLindstrom, 2014, Isaksson et al 2009). Then, building on that, they also propose methods to define the actor networks involved in a hybrid offering and their relationships with the PSS (Isaksson et al 2009, Morelli 2006; that is to support the requirements definition activities.…”

“…At this point one consideration may spontaneously rises: the focus on the interface and the requirements definition and the functional design sound similar to the Systems Engineering principles. One common point to all the studies is that product-service products (or systems) are different than pure products and pure services (Morelli 2003, Roy and Baxter, 2009, Muller and Sakao, 2010, Lindhal et al 2009, Sas and Lindstrom, 2014. Since PSSs are considered as a way to establish long term relationships for manufacturing companies, their value must be delivered to the customer during their entire life-cycle.…”

“…Then, considering the functional architecture and the System Requirements, the Sub-Systems were individuated and the System Requirements were cascaded into Sub-System Requirements accordingly. It is possible to note that, at this point, the Systems Engineering methodologies and the functional product development have a lot in common (Morelli, 2006, Buede, 2009, Isaksson et al, 2009, Sas and Lindstrom, 2014.…”

A three-step methodology is proposed to support development teams in product-service system (PSS) development projects. The methodology specifically addresses the problem of designing humans as part of the system. The human presence is a matter of fact when it comes to PSSs. They are the soft system delivering the service part of the PSS, which is also the most value adding for stakeholders. Furthermore many manufacturing companies are moving towards the integration of products and services. There are many structured approaches to support the design of software and tangible objects, i.e. the hard system. However there is a lack of guidance when it comes to the human presence design and integration with the hard system. The methodology aims at filling this gap. It was validated in a PSS development project within a company with a strong focus in product development. Hence it had to fit to an already in place product development framework. The findings were used to further refine the methodology. The methodology was fully applicable within that specific framework. However further validation runs are necessary to ensure its generality. The methodology will support the shift from pure manufacturer to product-service deliverer for those companies willing to change the rules of competition and to deliver more value to their customers.

Product-service system is a new globally optimized production system with high-degree integration of product and service, which is formed under the product lifecycle management thinking of manufacturing enterprises. This paper applies the modular design method in the development of CNC product-service system and studies the module division and configuration modeling method oriented to configuration design process. First, a service module division method based on design structure matrix is proposed, and the relationship of service activities is established through directed graph and the module division of service activities is determined by calculating reachable matrix. Next, the productservice integration strategy is analyzed, the product-service integration model is built, and the organic integration of product and services is achieved. Then, the meaning of configuration model of product-service system is introduced and the configuration model is established. At last, the economical turning center is selected as an example of CNC to implement the module division and configuration modeling of CNC product-service system and to verify the feasibility of proposed methods.

Product‐service system (PSS) is proposed as a response to the increasing need for sustainable solutions. To provide PSS, companies develop a customized system interconnecting heterogeneous systems. Consequently, distinguishing and modeling the interfaces in PSS is challenging because of the heterogeneity of its tangible and intangible components and their continuous interactions. To tackle this issue, this paper presents a contribution to interface definition in PSS architecture. It aims at proposing a conceptual model supporting the definition and classification of the interfaces in PSS architecture as a system of systems. Based on systems engineering recommendations, the model defines the interfaces between subsystems and components. The application of the model is illustrated by a pragmatic use case concerning a station‐less bicycle‐sharing system.
