 <title>Low cost, high value Service delivery models at Service Management Conference (NL)</title>
 <link>http://downton.noventum.eu/en/event/20120613-Service-Management-Heliview</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;start&quot;&gt;Start: 13 Jun 2012 - 08:45&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;end&quot;&gt;End: 13 Jun 2012 - 08:45&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Conclusies en aanbevelingen van recent wereldwijd onderzoek naar waarde en implicaties van nieuwe service leveringsmodellen.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Zowel groei als winstmarges van producten en product gerelateerde diensten staan onder druk door commoditization: klanten zien weinig verschil tussen verschillende aanbieders. E&amp;eacute;n van de belangrijke trends is het implementeren van low cost, high value service leveringsmodellen voor product gerelateerde diensten, die een gehele andere kosten- en waardestructuur hebben dankzij het gebruik van geavanceerde technologie&amp;euml;n en processen, zoals bijvoorbeeld remote services.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Noventum presenteert de bevindingen van het wereldwijde onderzoek naar de belangrijke trends in het verbeteren van productiviteit binnen service organisaties. Wat komen bedrijven zoal voor uitdagingen tegen? Levert het genoeg op? Wat zijn de verbanden tussen gerealiseerde groei en winstgevendheid, servicestrategie en de toegepaste service leveringsmodellen.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Live roundtable: What do your customers really want, expect and value?</title>
 <link>http://downton.noventum.eu/en/events/round_table/20120628_What_do_customers_really_want</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;start&quot;&gt;Start: 28 Jun 2012 - 12:00&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;end&quot;&gt;End: 28 Jun 2012 - 19:00&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently, most industries are being commoditised and suffer from severe pressure growth and margins. This also impacts the revenue and margins on product related services, like maintenance and break-fix services.&lt;br /&gt;
	Most successful businesses are transforming to a services led and customer centric business.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This all requires continuous, adequate and actionable customer insight on customer expectations, needs, value perception and experience with your brands, products and services. The challenge in here is that most of the critical insights are rather intangible and that the insights should be deployed and actioned throughout the organisation, at strategic levels, management levels and operational (delivery, marketing and sales) level.&lt;/p&gt;
