• The Future for Service(s) versus the Futures is Service(s)
• Service versus Services
• Trends “we all know”
• Transformations of Service
• Challenges
• Foresight work ignores service developments at its risk.
• Importance of:
• Grasping trends and transformations
• Seeing services as users of Foresight
• Seeing Foresight as service

Service Economy 1.0
“Post-Industrial Society” - 1960s-’80s
• Economy of services sector(s)
• Growth driven by consumer demand, welfare state
provision, low productivity growth
• Innovation relatively low, supplier-driven; MoT seen
as adoption of technology from elsewhere
• Industries are pre- or post-industrial - too complicated
or particularised for mass production
• Industrialisation of services via scale and
modularisation
• Examples: Bell, Fuchs,Levitt, Touraine

Service Economy 2.0
Knowledge-Based Economy: 1980s-2000s
• New Information Technology widely adopted in
service organisations- especially back-office in large
organisations.
• New IT-related services assisting this - supporting
business processes and innovation across the
economy.
• New services and service delivery, new e-services.
• Information Society, Knowledge Economy
• Examples: Barras, Gershuny, Quinn.

Economy of Service(s) 2010s-
• Service orientation (Service-Dominant Logic) to
forefront: Synthesis viewpoint
• Continuing Emergence of Processes and Practices–
will be invigorated by use of new technologies like
sensors, data analytics, etc.
• Manufacturing – servicisiation and beyond.
• Product-service solutions and Grand Challenges
• Examples: Gallouj, Spohrer, Vargo/Lusch.

Received wisdom is evolving...
• But may still fail to adequately deal with
several important factors and forces:
– Diversity of services
– Service is not necessarily upgraded
– New technologies may play major roles
– Manufacturing may be further transformed
– New tools for design of service systems.

Three Transformational Types
Physical
Transformations
e.g Cleaning,
Transport
Often much manual,
sometimes low-skill work
Environmental
sustainability, “self-service”
Power and engine systems;
technologies under repair
etc.
Business model change
Human
Transformations
e.g. Health, Personal
Services
High presence, often high
involvement of
Consumer/User
Human
diversity, Interpersonal
relations
Many specialised, from very
low to very high-tech
Changing role of public
sector
Informational
Transformations
e.g
Finance, Communicati
ons
Range of mass and
customised services
Keeping apace of platforms
and users,IP
IT and supporting systems
(e.g. Batteries)
New functionality (e.g.
Location) and knowledge
(e.g. Neuro...)

Many activities, and most service industries, involve some mixture of all three

Services Innovation =/= Service
Improvement
• Industrialisation and standardisation
• Mass customisation and (a) choice dilemmas
(b) personal distance – overfamiliarity
• Scope for using social media, etc.
- 16. © Higher School of Economics, Moscow 2013
Manufacturing-Services
• Beyond servicsiation
• Communications systems linking
manufacturing production processes with
customers...
• ...and consumption processes with producers.
• Plus new modes of factoryless manufacturing,
including 3-D printing, nanomanufacturing
- 17. © Higher School of Economics, Moscow 2013
Product-Service Systems
• Complex systems to analyse and model:
• Need for new tools and new design
approaches.
• Service design as critical for Future for
Services – and Future in general...
• Innovation and innovation management for
tools.
- 18. © Higher School of Economics, Moscow 2013
New Service Technologies
• Neurotechnology/cognitive science
• Information and biotechnologies for health,
sports, etc.

Conclusions
• Service thinking has evolved alongside growth
of “service economy” (-> economy of services)
• Services need Foresight
• Foresight is a service process and should be
approached as such
• Foresight exercises and activities need to take
into account growth and changing nature of
services.
