Abstract

Recent reports about economic structure and changes show that global economy changes to rely on service rather than manufacturing. This phenomenon can be explained in two ways: the growth of service industry itself and the increasing reliance on service by other industry areas. The importance of service is indicated by the fact that the contribution of research and development, marketing, and finance to the revenue generation of companies is getting greater than that of manufacturing. This change in the economic structure calls for researchers' attention on the importance of service and the service-based economy. In the service-based economy, firms are considered value proposition providers and consumers actual value creators so that the concept of co-value creation becomes a key thesis to study. However, there are a variety of definitions of service and diversified measurements of service anchored in the supplier-oriented understanding of service yet. This lack of understanding of the service and the economic paradigm change causes a lot of problems in the areas of service productivity, service quality, and service innovation. Even though a new movement called service science started and rigorously pursues the way of enhancing the understanding of the economic change and service productivity, there is no framework that provides a unified view about the new role of service, service productivity, service quality, and thus service innovation. This study proposes a unified framework to provide a structured view about service provision and to facilitate the research on service. The framework is built on the concepts from previous studies about service marketing and service science: service life cycle and service networks including value activity network, resource integrator network, and capability network. We hope this study can be used as the basis for future studies on service science.

서비스 산업의 비중이 지속적으로 증가하면서, 경제적인 패러다임이 제품 지배 논리에서 서비스 지배 논리로 전환됨에 따라 서비스를 보다 체계적으로 이해하고 그 생산성을 향상시킬 수 있는 서비스사이언스 분석 방법론에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 서비스사이언스에서의 새로운 서비스를 이해하기 위해 서비스의 구성요소를 나타내고 있는 서비스 시스템에서부터, 서비스 경험, 서비스 네트워크, 서비스 라이프사이클, 서비스 혁신에 대해 설명하고, 이러한 이해를 바탕으로 서비스사이언스 분석 프레임워크를 도출하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 서비스사이언스 분석 프레임워크는 기업내부의 자원을 조직화하기 위해 필요한 서비스 라이프 사이클 4단계(서비스 전략 및 설계, 생산 및 전달, 운영 및 유지, 평가 및 향상)와 고객의 서비스 경험 극대화를 위한 네트워크(가치행위 네트워크, 자원통합자 네트워크, 역량 네트워크)로 구성되어 있다. 서비스사이언스 분석 프레임워크는 향후 서비스사이언스에 관한 연구를 체계화하고 종합적인 시각을 갖는데 기여할 것으로 보인다.
