THE WORLD IS MOVING TO SMART CONNECTED PRODUCTS
Estimated potential economic impact of The Internet
of Things in 2025, range from $2.7 – 6.2 trillion annually
– McKinsey Global Institute
$6.2T #1
Manufacturing industry will be the #1 industry
sector by share of global economic value-add.
– Forecast: The IoT, Worldwide, 2014
Smart, connected products will give rise to the next era of IT-
driven productivity growth at a time when the impact of earlier
waves of IT has largely played itself out.

SERVICE CHALLENGES TODAY
OEM Revenue & Profitability
• Losing significant parts revenue to competitors
• Reactive models and high cost on-site service
channels constrain EBITA improvement
• Technicians and customers struggle to identify
the correct technical information and parts
• High service parts inventory and logistics costs
relative to fill rate and availability targets
• Aging workforce limits ability to scale
Customer Retention and Satisfaction
• Customers demanding enhanced service and
outcome based contracts
• Customer total cost of ownership perceived
to be too high
• Poor service experience has a negative
impact on brand loyalty and customer
satisfaction
• OEM is a part vendor versus strategic partner
limiting ability to impact customer value
drivers
All while Service leaders are tasked with driving more revenue and
profitability for the Enterprise

WHAT IS THE DRIVING USE CASE
Business Reason
for Remote Service
• Remote access to assets for
monitoring, control and
troubleshooting to improve
service
• Reduce overall cost of
servicing assets, reduce
onsite service calls
• Improve process for
software updates for your
products
Primary User/Persona
• Call Center Technician
• Remote Service Technician
• Field Service Engineer

WHAT METRICS?
Possible Metrics
• Mean time to repair (MTTR)
• First time fix rate (FTFR)
• Service cost per customer
• Service contract renewal rates
• No fault found (%)
• Technician utilization rate (%)
• Reduced truck-roll (remote fix rate)
• Equipment up-time
• Warranty costs
• Service revenue
• SLA compliance
13. 13
• Simple approach – one
variable
• Assume 100 field technicians
with 2 on site calls per week
• 2 weeks vacation per year
• Assume 15% of trips can be
resolved remotely
• Could expand to other
benefits such as Improved
first time fix rates

Editor's Notes
Steps/Phases to build the business case
According to global consulting firm McKinsey as much as $6.2 trillion in global economic value will be generated by this trend over the next ten year. As a point of reference, that’s about ten times as much economic value as the firm expects will be created by 3D printing.
Gartner states that Manufacturing industry will capture the greatest amount of value.
Prof. Michael Porter states SCP and IoT represent will have a greater impact on business and productivity than the introduction of the internet did.
If you haven’t read the HBR article by Michael Porter and Jim Heppelmann, I encourage you to do so.
It’s a great time to be a manufacturer. You have the chance to take part in the greatest economic value add opportunity of our lifetime.
Companies who are able to identify the opportunities and quickly bring to market solutions will be the leaders for the decades to come.
Connected technology is impacting the way manufacturers service their equipment today:
Track and monitor product location, performance, utilization, and condition; you always know where your products are and how they’re performing.
Enable remote service and remote software updates; routine technician visits have been replaced by remote service, software updates, and customer resolution.
Optimize parts forecasting and pricing through advanced modeling and causal forecasting; parts inventory is more effectively planned
