  1. 1. Vehicle Services

    Författare :Jonas Kuschel; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :vehicle services; information infrastructure; open innovation; prototyping; field studies;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to our understanding of the development and diffusion of vehicle services, and to how information technology interacts with forms of organization and business models to undermine or support the development of vehicle services. The overall research question asked in the thesis is: what are the technical, business and organizational prerequisites for the development and diffusion of a rich variety of vehicle services? The development and diffusion of vehicle services have been empirically investigated by ethnographic field studies, prototype software development and case studies as part of a collaborative practice research approach involving the Volvo Group.
