The industrial transition towards Product-Service-Systems: needs and advances in enterprise modelling and engineering
The current industrial transition towards Factories of the Future (FoF) implies strong transformation of enterprise Business Models within the manufacturing sector. Product Service Systems are a key component of this transition, and contribute to renovate both the underlying enterprise models and the needs of enterprise engineering tools. The objective of the lecture is to articulate the overall needs of transition towards FoF with the requirements for innovative conceptual modelling approaches and new modelling methods and tools. The lecture will first give a synthetic insight on PSS within the context of FoF, to make possible for the audience to understand the key concepts of PSS and key industrial needs for developing innovative enterprise modelling and engineering solutions. The second part of the lecture will present an advanced modelling method dedicated to support PSS design and engineering. The meta-modelling procedure followed for these developments will be explained, together with the resulting PSS-oriented meta-model and a demonstration of the resulting modelling tool PS3M ‘PSS Scenarios Modeler’.
