Abstract Despite significant advantages from manufacturer, consumer and societal perspectives, the share of remanufactured products is still low in most industries. Commitment of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) is limited due to the manifold barriers and challenges that were hitherto unknown in the traditional production environment. Based on the Business Model Canvas, a methodology identifying feasible options for competitive remanufacturing by evaluating case-specific barriers and challenges in order to cope with the corresponding complexity has been developed. Product-service systems are systematically utilized to exploit the potentials of remanufacturing. The methodology is demonstrated for OEM-oriented remanufacturing in medical technology, specifically an insulin pump. (c) 2015 CIRP.
