Brief Description

Incorporating services in an organization‘s product portfolio proved to become already in the past a critical success factor in various industries.Organizations with an innovative and reliable service offering become more measurable, profitable, and sustainable. Why is this?

New physical and digital consumption channels arise: internet, mobile / smart phone apps and wearables, kiosk systems and service machines in cities and rural areas, in business and event areas.

Service-to-go closes the distance. It provides greater reach to existing and new consumer groups, prospects, suppliers, and markets.

The Mobility as a Service thrives the whole transport industry as by 2030 MaaS global revenues is expected to exceed 1 billion $ (Source ABI Research).

Another interesting figure is over 200 million $ that the users will save through choosing multiple modes of transportation and services and also deliver emissions savings of 56 MtCO2. (Source: Frost & Sullivan).

For example in Finland in the urban areas the number of built parking spots within the apartment blocks is reduced and the construction companies propose a specific car sharing service to replace the need to own a car.

The user needs and the way they will be satisfied will define the success of MaaS taking that today 75% of current journeys have pain points, including parking delays and unreliable data connectivity. (Source: Transport Systems Catapult)
