Read in part 2: What distinguishes successful data-driven services.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Search for relevant information online and get matching hits within seconds. Or have books recommended to you online in line with your own preferences, instead of having to rummage through the entire range: \u201cExamples such as Google and Amazon show what capital is invested in data products,\u201d said Dr. Florian Wilhelm of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inovex.de\/\">inovex<\/a>. Together with Dr. Alexander L\u00f6ser from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beuth-hochschule.de\/en\/\">Beuth University of Applied Sciences<\/a> and Prof. Steffen Staab from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-stuttgart.de\/en\/\">University of Stuttgart<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverdatascience.org\/career-information\/data-scientist\/\">data scientist<\/a> hosted an online workshop in which the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.servicemeister.org\/en\/the-speedboat-projects\/\">speedboat projects from Service-Meister<\/a> took part. The goal: To not only find ideas and determine directions to develop own data-based services for the service in Industry 4.0, but also learn the methodology. Because: \u201cSuccessful data-driven services require a structured and strategic approach,\u201d said Wilhelm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>First examine the data landscape, then develop a data strategy<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which data is available in the company and which is missing? Where does data originate, where is it stored and in which formats is it available? And which data sources can perhaps be aggregated to fill information gaps? In order to develop data products at all, companies must examine their own data landscape. Which makes the task challenging: \u201cData is not evaluated or is only processed in silos, which means that a cross-company context is missing,\u201d said J\u00f6rg Bienert, chairman of the <a href=\"https:\/\/ki-verband.de\/\">KI Bundesverband<\/a> and partner in the data science consultancy Alexander Thamm, in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.servicemeister.org\/en\/2020\/04\/16\/daten-im-unternehmen-effizient-und-ganzheitlich-nutzen\/\">interview on servicemeister.org<\/a>. \u201cIn order to use data in the company efficiently and holistically, it is necessary to create a comprehensive, company-wide data strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tesla.com\">Tesla<\/a> example shows why this is necessary: The manufacturer first laid the foundation for its business model with its digital services. Where smart vehicles initially lacked the data needed to drive autonomously, intelligent cars simply collected this information themselves. With <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@strangecosmos\/the-five-pillars-of-teslas-large-scale-fleet-learning-approach-to-autonomous-driving-9f6a67aa2d0b\">Fleet Learning<\/a>, Tesla processes data from individual cars to gain insights for all cars. This creates a self-learning, self-optimizing system. Even if users have to brake or take countermeasures in order to correct an artificially intelligent (AI) decision, the control software learns from that. \u201cFeedback loops like this one continuously optimize our own data product,\u201d said Wilhelm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong>Applying data products to the user context<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To continuously optimize digital services and capitalize on smart capitalization, data-driven services must be at the right point in the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Value_chain\">value chain<\/a>. Take the example of buying sneakers: If you want to jog, you choose a shoe, draw up a training plan, determine routes and daily. \u201cThe decisive factor is the context in which users use the product,\u201d said Wilhelm. \u201cA shoe manufacturer could develop an app that suggests routes, monitors your own run and provides training plans.\u201d The digital service supports beginners and experts alike. And all users improve the overall system with their data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese are also interesting concepts for Service-Meister, but often the necessary database is lacking, especially in the B2B area,\u201d said Wilhelm. Compared to B2C markets, the B2B industry not only has fewer customers for a specific solution, but also many and varied requirements to consider. And where B2C providers can pass on development costs for data products to all of their many customers, the situation with just a few B2B users makes this financially unattractive. In order to solve this dilemma, Service-Meister plans on offering general, preconfigured AI building blocks that can be used to implement data-driven services in industrial services in a particularly cost-effective manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Data products in SMEs: Money flows, data does not yet<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What problem does my data product solve? Who is the target group? And how does the development pay for itself? In Service-Meister workshop, Wilhelm relied on a <a href=\"https:\/\/gumroad.com\/overthefence\">Predictive Analytics Canvas<\/a>. \u201cStart-ups also plan and work with these templates in order to develop themselves and their business model in an agile manner,\u201d said Wilhelm. \u201cThe canvas provides orientation, covers tasks such as a checklist and ensures that all steps on the way to your own service are followed.\u201d Structured, the template guides users from the idea to the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Minimum_viable_product\">Minimum Viable Product<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAlthough money does flow from the customer to the provider in small and medium-sized businesses, data is rarely involved,\u201d said Wilhelm. \u201cFor digital, data-based products and services to flourish in this country in the future, it is not only industrial services that need to rethink.\u201d According to a study by the <a href=\"https:\/\/barc.de\/\">Business Application Research Center (BARC)<\/a>, only 17 percent of companies are exploiting the financial potential of their data. A quarter of the study participants even completely rule out that their company will earn money with data in the future. Still: Twenty percent think it is conceivable. And four out of ten companies are running corresponding pilot projects, according to a 2019 <a href=\"http:\/\/barc-research.com\/research\/data-monetization\/\">study<\/a> by BARC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>In the first blog post about the workshop, you can read <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.servicemeister.org\/en\/2020\/06\/04\/warum-plattformen-erfolgsgeschichten-brauchen\/\"><strong>why platforms need success stories<\/strong><\/a><strong> and where the potential for Europe and Germany lies. \u201cWhether mechanical engineering, logistics or chemicals \u2013 industries like these are still accessible as platform markets for local companies. Companies must now make the right decisions and make long-term investments,\u201d said Dr. Alexander L\u00f6ser from Beuth University.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong>You liked this article? <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.servicemeister.org\/en\/newsletter\/\"><strong>Then subscribe to our <\/strong><\/a><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.servicemeister.org\/en\/newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\">newsletter<\/a> and receive regular updates on similar topics and the Project Service-Meister.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Service-Meister relies on open platforms and an AI-based ecosystem.
