Finnish Service Alliance - Activities
Knowledge sharing Thematic or regional seminars and events aim at sharing information on
current research projects and findings, and future challenges in the service landscape. These
events bring academics and practitioners together to tackle the scientific, economic, and
societal challenges in services through collaboration.
Main event and media The annual Service Day event brings service researchers and
practitioners together to discuss current topics in services. The program features inspirational
keynote presentations from leading service scholars and multi-disciplinary insights to service
phenomena in practice.
International visibility Solid connections to foreign universities and service-related institutions
enable increasing international visibility of Finnish service research and foster collegial learning
on an international scale.
Sparring and mentoring — linking people from industry and science. In this program, we bring
strangers together, in order to learn from each other and inspire each other. Whether you are
looking for answers, or you think you have found an answer to something and would like it to be
applied to a business or public sector organization, we can help you get in touch with the right
people.
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) Long-term work groups on a specific topic may, for example,
pursue collaborative academic writing and develop new multi-disciplinary research and/or
development initiatives.

Case Example:
Public health care system: Case cardio-vascular disease
1326/11/2013
Public health care system: Case cardio-vascular disease
The total service concept is produced by numerous stakeholders (e.g.,
patients & their relatives, doctors, society, surgeons, rehabilitation units, IT
tool vendors, health office, social security, etc.) with conflicting interests.
Fragmented groups (e.g., patients consist of elderly pensioners, busy IT
savvy professionals, challenging multi-problem patients with destructive life
choices, etc.).
Different pressures for change from niche, landscape and regime levels,
e.g. new legislation in 2014.
Many of the service processes are constructed to benefit only one or two
stakeholders. Tailored services for different fragmented groups are scarce.
How to create the new customer centric service which also creates value
for many stakeholders?

Dynamic value
accumulation model
The model is based on the
concept of service dominant logic
(Vargo & Lusch) and value
dimension model (Smith &
Colgate).
2826/11/2013
Value proposition &
experience
Both the value proposition and the
value experience can be
augmented with different
dimensions.
2926/11/2013
Second stage: Quantitative simulation model
The Value Accumulation model was applied to the health care system
The parameters for the model were collected:
from actual health care actions (such as, costs)
from expert interviews (the effects of different actions)
from stakeholders (consumer and market research)
The model results were validated
using actual data on partial models
using expert opinions on workshops
3026/11/2013
Simulation model
Accomplished change when only patients and rehab
providers participate and the external pressure is lifted.
3126/11/2013
Conclusions
The stakeholders were very happy even with the bare qualitative
systems thinking model and group model building process.
Comments ”I never realized that there were so many
stakeholders and cross connections”, ” Now I understand why
we have failed so many times before…”
The Value Accumulation Model was used for understanding
different dimensions of value on different stakeholders and
customer segments
Comment ”We could get these guys committed, if we’ll design
a tool which will create this kind of value for them which will be
grater than the negative cost value (work, money and time
spent) …”
3226/11/2013
Conclusions
The quantitative simulation model was additional tool for showing
numeric benefits (such as money, time, resources, quality-of-life) of
different service concepts over a long time horizon.
Comment ”When the minister will visit us I will show the
benefits of this service as well as the mechanisms how we can
successfully implement it…”
Next steps:
Numerical tuning of the model parameters continues
Different service concepts are created and tested with conjoint
analysis, which in turn gives parametric values for value
dimension model (trade offs and preferences of different
service attributes)

  • 27. 2726/11/2013 Dynamic value accumulation model The model is based on the concept of service dominant logic (Vargo & Lusch) and value dimension model (Smith & Colgate).
  • 28. 2826/11/2013 Value proposition & experience Both the value proposition and the value experience can be augmented with different dimensions.
  • 29. 2926/11/2013 Second stage: Quantitative simulation model The Value Accumulation model was applied to the health care system The parameters for the model were collected: from actual health care actions (such as, costs) from expert interviews (the effects of different actions) from stakeholders (consumer and market research) The model results were validated using actual data on partial models using expert opinions on workshops
  • 30. 3026/11/2013 Simulation model Accomplished change when only patients and rehab providers participate and the external pressure is lifted.
  • 31. 3126/11/2013 Conclusions The stakeholders were very happy even with the bare qualitative systems thinking model and group model building process. Comments ”I never realized that there were so many stakeholders and cross connections”, ” Now I understand why we have failed so many times before…” The Value Accumulation Model was used for understanding different dimensions of value on different stakeholders and customer segments Comment ”We could get these guys committed, if we’ll design a tool which will create this kind of value for them which will be grater than the negative cost value (work, money and time spent) …”
  • 32. 3226/11/2013 Conclusions The quantitative simulation model was additional tool for showing numeric benefits (such as money, time, resources, quality-of-life) of different service concepts over a long time horizon. Comment ”When the minister will visit us I will show the benefits of this service as well as the mechanisms how we can successfully implement it…” Next steps: Numerical tuning of the model parameters continues Different service concepts are created and tested with conjoint analysis, which in turn gives parametric values for value dimension model (trade offs and preferences of different service attributes)
