Contents of the module:
The number and importance of (innovative) services grows, and access to individual services is easy (e.g. via apps). But customers expect the seamless combination of services from many fields. In this context, the customer-induced orchestration of services is a new paradigm on the interface of business information systems, marketing and service science. The fundamental idea is that customers are supported in combining services from different application areas (e.g., mobility, health, education) through information systems. This seminar will discuss the concept of service orchestration as well as specific questions, for example
- How can we support the customer with service orchestration?
- What are the approaches in different application areas (e.g. finance, mobility, education, health)?
- How can we model and optimize customer journey for different application areas?
- What about data protection?
