Abstract
Product-Service System (PSS) is regarded as a new business concept for manufacturing firms to enhance the value of their products and build up strong relationships with their customers. To realize a sustainable business, it is important for them to make a business situation where each stakeholder involved receives values through the provision of PSS. The designers have to have a holistic view and consider the total value created within the system. This paper proposes a method to design PSS that have high value for each stakeholder. In this method, a PSS is designed through a “design cycle” composed of three phases such as: (1) modeling, (2) simulation, and (3) new scenario description. In this method, a PSS is designed under the simultaneous consideration of values received by various stakeholders.
