    Capturing value in the service economy

    No full text
    The benefits of specialization have been driving the rise of the service economy and pushing capability frontiers and economic growth. In service economies, almost any activity, asset, and skill can be bought on competitive markets, making it harder to build competitive advantage on those inputs. Therefore, firms have to carefully decide what to own in order to capture value, and they need to prioritize investments in those assets while outsourcing almost everything else. Service businesses capture value by connecting resource markets with service markets, and we identified three types of assets that allow a firm to connect markets and capture value in the process. They are: (1) resource-based assets shaping capabilities and capacities of services; (2) platform-based assets connecting resource owners with users,allowing to generate network effects, critical mass, volume and/or liquidity; and (3) market-based assets providing the interface for interaction with customers. We propose further three key dimensions that shape each service-asset type: Physical capital, intellectual capital and social capital including service climate as a framework for a typology of service assets. We identify further two domains of service management that allow firms to capture value: (1) business models for designing the architecture and "Gestalt" of value creation; and (2) the effective management of an integrated web of processes and activities. We discuss implications for management and further research

    Bioenergy provision by an alley cropping system of grassland and shrub willow hybrids: biomass, fuel characteristics and net energy yields

    No full text
    In the temperate zone, alley cropping is promoted as a climate change-resilient agroforestry practice for the provision of biogenic energy carriers. However, little information is available on the potential of such cropping systems as feedstock for biofuel production. In a field trial in Central Europe, the triennial performance of alley cropping systems was assessed. The systems consisted of clover-grass, a native diversity-oriented grassland mixture and multirows of willows. They were compared to a willow and grassland control adjacent to the trial area. Three different conversion technologies were applied to grassland feedstock and analyzed for relevant quality parameters. Net energy balances were calculated to determine the potential of the cropping systems and the associated controls as providers of biogenic energy carriers. The grassland control had the highest triennial yield (18 t DM ha(-1)), whereas pure willow stands were less productive with 7 t DM ha(-1). Alley cropping was intermediate with 12 t DM ha(-1) on average. Net energy yield of the clover-grass based systems was highest in the grassland control for all conversion technologies, whereas values of the diversity-based systems in the control and the alley cropping system achieved similar values. This study only investigated the first 3 years after establishment, when growth rates of shrub willows were still low. Thus, more research is needed to evaluate the long-term performance of agroforestry systems with shrub willows and herbaceous crops.German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF
