How to Close "Buyer - Seller Perception Gap" in Monetizing Pay Per Use and Outcome

Referenssi“Customer expectations have been permanently upgraded”, stated Henrik Ehrnrooth, President & CEO of KONE Corporation in his opening key note at the Manufacturing Performance Days 2017 summit last week.

He voiced that companies can no longer sell what they have; they must sell what the customers wish for: “Our customers want to buy outcomes, not product features.”

Towards Outcome Economy

Over 800 industry decision makers and experts shared the topic “Towards Outcome Economy” at the Manufacturing Performance Days. Spotlight was on the new business models, earning logic and customer value creation.

Many industries are affected by digital disruption. Along with the adoption of IoT, even the most successful traditional industrial manufacturers selling physical investment products are transforming into usage-based and outcome-based service businesses.

Buyer Seller Perception Gap

So the era of standard service packages is over. Customers are no longer willing to accept a “least unsuitable package” but wish to pay per-use or pay-per-outcome. This change affects all structures in service companies.

Good Sign’s lead consultant in industrial internet and digitalization, Janne Kivilaakso, gave a presentation on “Monetizing Customer Value" at the Manufacturing Performance Days. He stated that new service business models are also creating a “Buyer - Seller Perception Gap”. Buyers are expecting that a new way to buy means lower prices. Sellers are expecting to charge more with a new way to sell. Therefore, the price expectation may grow far apart.


When service providers move into outcome based business they must understand that in the outcome economy customer defines the value. The value is different from customer to customer depending on what the customer’s use for the service is and what the customer’s own value creation is. The value reflects the customer’s justification on the spend.

There may be several ways to close the gap and reach agreement on service content and value. The service provider can:

  • Maintain long customer relationships where customer specific high quality services create cumulative value understanding
  • Provide unmatched value with the ability to build proof into sales and/or charging models
  • Radically cut costs of service providing, when the seller’s margin can grow even if the sales price is not higher
This calls for end-to-end digitalization!

A Paradigm Shift in System Capabilities

Service business dynamics are different from product business.

A paradigm shift in business model requires also a paradigm shift in processes and systems:
  • A shift “from product sales to service providing”
  • A shift “from relatively fixed and packaged services to usage and outcome-based services”
  • A shift “from service providers to service ecosystems”
New dynamic service structures and customer specific sales combinations and dynamic pricing models are not existent in the traditional systems for ERP and pricing and billing.

Speed, flexibility and transparency will be embedded in the business models and business systems.
