Enterprise Engineering Needs for Product Service Systems
This contribution to NEMO 2016 is not oriented on innovations or research works concerning the theory and implementation of enterprise modelling tools and methodology. Complementary, it is focusing on an application area, which induces specific requirements and needs for such methodologies. Industrial Product Service Systems (PSS) are a recent industrial concept offering strong opportunities both for business innovation and sustainability improvement. Coupling or even integrating industrial production and service delivering poses many innovative challenges for the manufacturing industry at the technological, organizational and even human level. In the recent years, many international projects have contributed to important scientific advances in the field. The lecture will first give a synthetic insight on PSS, to make possible for the audience to understand the key concepts of PSS and key industrial needs to manage an economical transition towards this new form of industrial economy. Then, the lecture will underline specific research orientations directly linked to the needs of developing enterprise modelling and engineering solutions, to support the configuration, deployment, and life cycle management of PSS and value creation chains. The practical part of the lecture will offer the audience the opportunity to experiment a customized modelling tool implemented using the ADOxx platform, named ‘PSS Scenarios Modeler’. PSS Scenarios Modeler is designed to support PSS engineering through a progressive capitalization of the designers’ ideas and knowledge throughout the engineering process. The audience will go through a stepwise modelling process to define PSS organizational scenario in a specific context.
