Objective

The Product Service Systems Methodology proposal aims to provide industry with a toolkit that enables them to analyse newly developed product-services with regard to design and implementation aspects; micro-, meso- and macro-economic impacts; social and environmental impacts and issues related to consumer acceptance and culture and ethics. The project outcome will offer companies the tools to successfully implement new product- services that will be in line with their business goals, offer optimal quality for their individual customers and minimise negative impacts on the environment, thus resulting in sustainable growth. The toolkit will be developed by leading researchers in the field of Product Service Systems methodology, in close co-operation with industry participants who will provide up-to-date input of business cases and participate in testing and refinement of the developed methodologies and tools.
