Sources of Value in Service Supply Relationships
Bi-directional Optimization Managing Productive Capacity
- Transfer: make knowledge available (e.g. web based FAQ database)- Replacement: substitute technology for server (e.g. digital blood pressure device)- Embellishment: enable self-service by teaching (e.g. change surgical dressing)
Management of Perishability

Impact of Service Supply Relationships
Element or Link Before After Channel Structure Functional silos Process orientation Service Recipient Passive Active as a co-producer Channel Integration Vertical (own the channel to
integrate) Virtual (IT and other mechanism permit integration without ownership)
Flow of Service Available waiting for demand Activated upon demand Flow of Information (upstream)
Pull: manual reporting of demand data results in delayed management response.
Push: high level of connectivity and transparency with fast or instantaneous access to most recent demand data.
Flow of Information (downstream)
Little or no knowledge of resource deployment
Real-time tracking and dispatching
Business Processes
Predominantly in-house; locally optimized for efficiency
In-house for key processes, others out-sourced for flexibility; integrated and synchronized to match supply with demand
Demand Management Limited to use of appointments and reservations.
Proactive involving customer in scheduling to achieve bi-directional optimization

Facilitating Goods High; in anticipation ofdemand
Lower; owing to processtransparency
Service Delivery Inflexible; standardized andimpersonal
Flexible; personable withcustomization possible.
Routing and scheduling Static; fixed daily schedules Dynamic; based on systemconnectivity and processvisibility
New Service Design Marketing initiatives based onfirm's perception of customerneeds
Virtual value chain design withcustomer data base informationdriving new services
Pricing Fixed Variable; yield managementpromotes off-peak demand andavoid idle capacity

The bull-whip effect Variations in demand are amplified as one
moves upstream in the supply chain (further from the customer)
Small uncertainty at one end can lead to large uncertainty at the other end of a supply chain
Good method to nullify is based on demand-driven forecasting where all information is shared through supply chain

Outsourcing Services Benefits
- allows the firm to focus on its core competence- service is cheaper to outsource than perform in-house- provides access to latest technology- leverage benefits of supplier economy of scale
Risks - loss of direct control of quality - jeopardizes employee loyalty - exposure to data security and customer privacy - dependence on one supplier compromises future negotiation leverage - additional coordination expense and delays - atrophy of in-house capability to perform service

Outsourcing ConsiderationsFocus on Property
Facility Support Service • Low cost • Identify responsible party to evaluate performance • Precise specifications can be written
Equipment Support Service • Experience and reputation of vendor• Availability of vendor for emergency response• Designate person to make service call and to check that service is satisfactory
