Purpose: There are lots of efforts to increase the revenue of on-line travel agency due to the extreme competition in the hospitality industry. One of the way to improve the revenue is applying new concepted service for their business. In this study, it is introduced an innovative system design of hotel reservation for the on-line travel agency using the concept of an opaque product. Methods: By adopting the opaque product at the hotel reservation system, the reservation requests can increase because the customer tends to feel that they purchase the hotel service with relatively cheap price. The overall process for an innovative hotel reservation system is presented and the core algorithm to implement this system is also suggested through a mathematical model based optimization method. Results: To validate and to examine the proposed process and core algorithm, a numerical example is provided with the modified data of the hotels in Seoul metropolitan city. The discount prices and the overall revenue of hotels are generated according to hotel grade. Conclusion: It is confirmed that the revenue of the hotel tends to increase according to its grade. This is because that the customer want to use the new service which applying the concept of opaque product when the higher discount ratio are decided for lower grade hotels.

Service elements are added to the product to improve the company it its sales and innovation. The servitization process could take many different routes reflecting various properties of the manufacturing firm and its business contexts. Product-service systems (PSS) design method developed at Sungkyunkwan Universty, Service Design Institute, has been applied to a small furniture manufacturing company to demonstrate the utility of the method and to devise improvements. First, the business context of the company has been analyzed and key values have been identified. A co-creative session has been conducted to develop initial service concepts to drive those key values. The diverse positioning of those service concepts on the scale of service supporting product and service support customer is then developed to plan servitization phases. The specific service concepts are about company-customer relationship building as well as customization and personalization in this case. Initial service concepts are detailed with service blueprint so that prototyping and customer experience evaluation can be done. Business models in different servitization phases are designed. Further prototyping and customer experience evaluation has been done with business strategy improvements. In this paper, the proudct-service systems design method has been reviewed and the specific and real processes of the servitization using design will be described with discussion on the improvement of the method and the enhancement of the business.

A Product-Service Systems (PSS) is composed of service and product element to provide values for relevant stakeholders. A typical service interaction involves providers and receivers, and respective values are provided in a social interaction. In cases, more than one providers are interacting with a receiver. In others, service interaction is happening in a public manner where social issues amang peer receivers are important. When service channel is supported by physical touchpoints, receivers would interact with products, which may interact with providers. Thus, in PSS, a various kinds of interactions occur in diverse social contexts. A simple representation method for social contexts is introduced where service providers, receivers and products are represented as nodes and interaction between them are represented as directed edges. Social context of several PSS examples are described with this. In booth designing and operating PSS, social context representations could be used in analyzing and comparing key aspects of social interaction types to retrieve similar cases to exploit related interaction design strategies and operation know-hows.

대량 생산은 오랫동안 다양한 제품 생산방법으로서 기업의 전략을 수립하는 데 있어 가장 중요한 생산 패러다임이었다. 하지만 기업의 경쟁 환경과 소비자의 요구가 다양화함에 따라 이제는 대량 생산이 가장 중요한 패러다임이 될 수 없다. 특히 소비자들의 요구사항은 더욱 다양해지며, 빠르게 변화하여 기업들은 소비자들의요구에 대응하기 힘들어 지고 있다. 대량 맞춤(Mass Customization)은 이런 흐름을 반영하여 가장 주목 받는 패러다임으로서 대량 맞춤은 고객의 요구에 맞춘 다양한 제품을 저렴한 비용으로 생산해 내는 것이 목적이다. 본 연구에서는 프로덕트 아키텍처 시스템(Product Architecture System)의 이론과 개념을 활용하여 대량 맞춤형 서비스를 실현하는 방법을 구체화하였고 이를 캠핑카의 내부 퍼니처 모델 중심으로 사례 연구하였다. 특히 기존에 기업에서 생산성을 중심으로 제품 플랫폼(Product Platform)과 모듈(Module)을 개발하던 것과는 달리, 소비자의 요구사항을 최우선으로 반영하여 제품 플랫폼(Product Platform)과 모듈(Module)을 개발하고 구성하는 방법을 제시하였고, 그 효용성에 대해 고찰하였다. 연구 결과로는 프로덕트 아키텍처 시스템의 내부 요인을 통해 디자인하고 외부 요인으로 결과물의 효과성을 검증하여 교체성, 재활용성, 라인업, 충전성 등에서 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다. 추후 프로덕트 아키텍처 시스템을 활용한 디자인 프로세스를 통해 추가적인 실증연구로 이어지길 기대한다.

RFID(Radio Frequency Identification)는 효율적이고 정확하게, 제품을 인식하는 새로운 수단으로 대두되고 있다. RFID 기술사용은 산업분야의 초과 재고조사, 위조품, 노동 비용을 감소시키고 공급망을 향상시킬 수 있을 것이다. RFID 기술은 제품을 인식하기 위해 RF를 사용한다. 각 제품에는 EPC(Electronic Product Code)라는 작은 태그가 부착되어 있으며, 특정 상품 정보를 포함하고 있다. 각각의 EPC는 유일하며 개개의 제품을 인식할 수 있다. EPC 태그가 특정 위치로 이동하게 되면 리더는 태그를 읽게 되며, 태그 데이터는 데이터 저장 시스템인 EPC 정보서비스에 저장된다. 모든 서비스가 웹 서비스를 통하여 EPC 정보서비스로 접근될 수 있으며, 사용자가 서비스를 요구할 때 마다 사용자에게 원하는 데이터를 제공해 준다. 본 연구에서는 EPC 정보서비스를 이용하여 재고관리 시스템을 구현해 보았다.

In recent business environments, the competition among firms is shifting from the competition based on individual firm only to the competition based on alliance of firms. This is because it is not easy for a firm to perform all functions which consumers want. Thus, it is more effective to combine core competencies of different firms based on a strategic partnership. It is essential to establish a strategic partnership and this strategic partnership is a key success factor in PSS(Product-Service System) which combines products and services. In this paper, we propose a profit sharing model for PSS partnership. We first analyze customer's utility using Cobb-Douglas utility function and then propose the PSS profit sharing ratio considering functionalities and cost structures based on the combination ratio of PSS. This paper helps firms to develop partnership strategies for PSS.

The objective of this study was to investigate the problems and benefits associated with the implementation of HACCP on livestock product of plants in Korea. The survey was carried out by randomly selecting 115 HACCP accredited meat processing plants, all across the country. A total of 105 complete responses were selected for analysis. The results were as follows: approximately 60% of the respondents employed less than twenty workers. The average period of operating HACCP system was 3.4 years. The respondents replied that the major incentive to implement the HACCP system was to improve hygiene management ability. More than half of the respondents (59.05%) claimed that the implementation of the HACCP system cost less than 400 million won, and the highest investment in terms of cost was the freezer/refrigerator. In the preparation period taken to implement the HACCP system, the 6-12 mon category had the highest percentage (55.24%). Most respondents replied that there was an increase in the customer satisfaction, plant image and turnover, after HACCP implementation (p<0.05). A total of 98.09% of respondents had the opinion that their plant workers had improved in their understanding of food hygiene by HACCP implementation (p<0.05). Approximately 79% of respondents indicated that customer complaints decreased, as a result of HACCP implementation.

Product-service system (PSS) is a novel type of business model integrating products and services in a single system. It provides a strategic alternative to product-oriented economic growth and price-based competition in the global market. This paper first reviews the current status of PSS, including its concept, characteristics, benefits, and cases. This paper then reviews the existing literature and identifies major research issues for three main phases of a PSS development lifecycle, namely, PSS design, PSS evaluation, and PSS operation. This research is expected to contribute to promoting awareness and improving understanding of PSS in our society and planning of future research in this field.

As well as the development of the measurement of service quality, various kinds of service measurements are also being developed. Especially the mobile telecommunication service being representative to the mobile telecommunication company would be the mostly developed area. Its development can be understood along with the development of the telecommumication companies as well as cellular companies, not only the service alone. It is a differentiated phenomenon in the current research, such as the organic influence between the service quality and product. Of course there are such products placed on sale and enjoyed the common service, but at present there is another case that the product is on the market exclusively with the mobile company in here.
