| Summary: | Servitization and the move from purely manufacturing to offering services as well, thereby enhancing both financial performance from a company side, and offering customer satisfaction from the market side, is an area which has been studied for a number of years. A number of studies have reviewed different companies to utilise this type of strategy however very few within the Marine sector, in an estimate $200bn annual market.
This study reviews both the potential and actual deployment of this strategy at a firm level by Rolls-Royce, an integrated power systems company operating in both the Aerospace and Marine markets.
This study reviews the literature relating to the servitization concept, the benefits which can be derived from a deployment of this strategy and then analyses the maturity and next steps for this strategy within the Rolls-Royce Marine division. |
