Leasing a Machine Builder Innovation - Past Important business model innovation 1959: Xerox delivers model 914 to the market only via a leased (not sold) copier. Approach makes it easier for users to adopt the new technology. Xerox gets the upside of exploding usage.
Business Model Innovation - Today Commercial jet engines: GE and Rolls Royce charge customers per flying hour of the engine Food and Beverage packaging: Tetra Pak provides the aseptic packaging machine, charging their clients for the consumed packaging material. Air Fractionation on site plants: Praxair, Air Liquide charge consumption.
Technology to support Differentiated Value Propositions Service level - A key element of any powerful value proposition. Technology deployment enables the creation of relevant differentiation. Examples: Proactive approach to maintenance via predictive technology and improved scheduling. Better anticipation of peak demand. Sensing of inventory levels with automated replenishment deliveries. Expert systems to guide technicians and orders required spare parts. Technology enables billing based on actual consumption. Mechanical counter of older copying machine.

Manufacturers will Benefit Manufacturers as recipients of new business models from their suppliers Beneficiaries of new approaches by OEMs. Enticed by propositions that lowers Capex and transfers to Opex. Enticed by risk reduction propositions. Plant floors already with: Leased equipment. Outsourced personnel (e.g. security). Consumption driven invoicing of supplier product kept (e.g. spares in lock box) or produced (e.g. air fractionation) on plant premises. Manufacturers may get closer to: Supply chain Plants Consumers of their products Manufacturers can generate new business models alone or with others.

System Integrators System Integrators bring the capability to integrate the various components into a solution. Their traditional business model will most certainly be challenged as well. Increase in solutions scope, likely to integrate non-industrial systems. Move from project to ongoing service centric, potentially subscription based. Move from generic to vertical / application specialist. At CSIA we work towards converting the change brought by digitalization into transformation for our members and System Integration community in general.
Continuum of Opportunities for System Integrators Traditional SI work New Opportunities enabled by IoT Reward Risk Traditional System Integration business that may get supplemented with opportunities brought by IoT. Project centric. SI as App developer Develops apps and makes them available though portals of automation vendors. SI as a IoT Venture Partner Provides system integration work that may include applications outside of the traditional automation space and/or involves some risk sharing in venture. SI as IoT Entrepreneur Develops and commercializes platform / services. Likely to seek external investment to share risk and enable scaling up.
