CUST.Reference:10.4 - Solutions, provision and outcome promises
- Tuli, Kohli and Bharadwaj, “Rethinking Customer Solutions: From Product Bundles to Relational Processes” (2007). The primary abstract supports the relation between requirements, integration, deployment and subsequent support. It is not used as a fully read implementation manual.
- Storbacka, “A solution business model: Capabilities and management practices for integrated solutions” (2011). The author-posted abstract supports attention to commercialization and industrialization across solution work. It does not justify importing every capability in the unread full model.
- Sjödin, Jovanovic, Visnjic and Parida, “Value Creation and Value Capture Alignment in Business Model Innovation: A Process View on Outcome-Based Business Models” (2020). The abstract and indexed publisher passages support continuing alignment of value creation and capture, rather than relying on contract form alone. The full continuous article was not the basis of this treatment.
- Rolls-Royce, TotalCare. The official offer illustrates selected engine-life and maintenance responsibilities and payment related to engine flying hours while the customer retains operational responsibilities. It is neither the actual contract nor independent evidence of performance, and it supplies no universal clinical, agricultural or social-outcome recipe.
CUST.4 uses the complete SYSE.8 offering/provider Method for the consequential choice. The provider’s influence, other parties’ contributions, observation, acceptance, risk and resources must support the promise. Observability alone is insufficient; complete control of every cause is not a universal prerequisite. A narrower supported promise remains an available result.
