Transport services continue to be liberalized across the entire European Union, although at differing speeds in each Member State. This momentum is expected to continue in the coming years. Against this background, attention to new dimensions of transport services becomes imperative. The focus, which has so far centred on managing infrastructure, must now shift to lesser explored areas, like product innovation and customer relationship management. The efficiency and competitiveness of new private operators will depend to a large extent on achieving a balanced development of the three aforementioned areas, as well as paying particular attention to their inherent logic, in order to build a strong value proposition. Business model innovation emerged in the field of strategic management yet goes beyond the traditional framework of competition 'for the market' and 'in the market', opening a wider and more promising space, i.e. the market creation framework. The goal is no longer to discover and exploit opportunities, but to create new opportunities and generate new market spaces.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.3673

In this chapter we introduce the concept of Service Mediary, which provides a conceptual and technical platform for electronic services. Our analysis shows that it pays off to outsource customer relationship management in electronic channels to a specialized service provider. The I-mode case study demonstrates clearly the benefits this kind of cooperation offers to content and service providers. Especially the built-in billing and revenue sharing logic are critical elements to I-mode’s success story. Even more encouraging are the benefits of collaboration to customers, who will enjoy the fruits of the new networked e-business economy. A Service Mediary is in a position to understand the customer requirements and building a service offering which optimally matches those requirements. In the multi-channel business environment of tomorrow, no single company can develop cost efficiently all required services for every channel. The future belongs to specialized, closely cooperating companies, which can offer superior customer experience at a competitive price. A Service Mediary like NTT DoCoMo with its I-mode service can offer a true win-win-win business model: service providers, customers and the Service Mediary all win in this game. Based on the analysis of the I-mode case, we can conclude that Service Mediary as a business model has a great potential in the future.
