How can product-related services be developed or further developed to contribute measurably more to the success of a company? For three years, the PROMIDIS consortium partners from academia and business, with medium-sized production companies as application partners, have explored this question. The outcome includes:
• a practical guide,
• modular training courses,
• methods for further developing existing and developing new services,
• concepts for the introduction of innovative software-based control and
management instruments.
