| Abstract |
For the attainment of sustainable society, not only reducing resource usage, disposal and environmental load but also saving consumer's payment for receiving product and service and yielding high profit for product and service provider are necessary. This paper proposes a planning method for determination of upgrading strategy for upgradable product service system: Up-PSS that is the one of the sustainable developing and consumption business model. The meaning of sustainability in this study is generating larger profit for service provider with cheaper service cost (price) for customers and lower environmental impact for the earth compared with traditional product selling. Hence, this study defines lifecycle cost, profit, and environmental load emission as considerable agendas. At first, this study discusses the occurrence factor of Up-PSS's cost and environmental load in the entire lifecycle of an upgradable product. Second, this paper proposes a decision-making method for particular upgrading way such as send-back upgrade and serviceman upgrade. Third, modeling mothed for lifecycle cost, profit, and environmental load is shown by using aforementioned occurrence factors. Finally, proposed method is applied to a packaged product leasing as a case study. The result of case study attained lower price, higher profit, and lower environmental load in the periodic product lifecycle than conventional product selling by obtaining appropriate profit rate, product using generation, and upgrading amount. |
