Abstract

Service Science is an emerging transdiscipline that draws on a great breadth of existing academic disciplines without replacing them. Thanks to the intellectual contributions from the research community of various disciplines, Service Science has progressed from SSME, to SSME+D (Design), and expanded to SSME+DAPP (Design, Art and Public Policy). With this expansion, there is a need to develop a set of Fundamental Concepts of Service Science to facilitate the creation of a trading zone (big tent) to invite individuals from different background with different vocabularies to communicate, share ideas, and facilitate their engagement in mutually productive interactions. The Fundamental Concepts of Service Science are identified as ecology, entity, interactions, outcomes, value propositions, governance mechanisms, resources, access rights, stakeholders, and measures. A preliminary set of Fundamental Premises of Service Science will be presented that would allow reasoning assertions to be made about the behavior and interaction among the Fundamental Concepts. We will also reflect these developments upon the pioneering work of Service-Dominant Logic and its Fundamental Premises.

Service Dominant Logic – Some More Perspectives(forthcoming)

“A service ecosystem is a relatively self-contained, self-adjusting system of

resource-integrating actors that are connected by

shared institutional logics and mutual value creation

through service exchange.”

THE CONTEXTUAL NATURE OF VALUE CREATION:

THE STRUCTURATED WORLD OF S-D LOGIC

The importance of “Value-in-Context”

Conclusion and Future Research

We are seeing a convergence of the worlds of Service Science and SD-Logic.

More to be done with the “Networks and Systems” pillar, esp. with the “Viable

Systems” literature.

Let’s carry on the conversation with other disciplines. Maybe we will be less blind

and found out there is no elephant.
