TY - THES A1 - Duroudier, Jon T1 - Development of a Proceeding Model for creating a Platform Business Model N2 - The machining industry is one of the oldest and most traditional industry from the last two centuries. Its development at the early beginning supported the well-known “industrial revolution” period, and over the years, new technical developments has brought the machining technology to a very high level of precision, accuracy and competitiveness in terms of cost and quality. Nowadays the world is facing a new revolution related to the internet of things, big data, and the virtual world; which is mainly supported by the high maturity and capacity that the internet communication offers, and that is supposed to be the revolution that will democratized the technology. According to these statements, the goal from this master thesis is to disrupt the traditional machining business model, with a new business model concept based on the platform business model, offering a complete solution for the targeted group of users. With help from the self-developed proceeding model for the business model generation, all the aspects related to the current existing types of machining business models have been analyzed and documented, being identified 7 different types of models. In addition to this, a deep research in the platform ecosystem has given as a result, plenty of insights and characteristics that must be taken in account for a successful implementation of a platform system into the machining industry. Following the proceeding model step by step, the user’s identification has been done obtaining their biggest problems and objectives they want to achieve related with the machining industry. Mixing up all these ingredients together in a structured way has given as result a list of pain relievers and gain creators that fulfills the users’ needs. And to culminate the work, the rest of the 9 blocks from Osterwalders business model generator have been defined, keeping always the vision of the “machining platform” in mind. The final outcome from this master thesis is then a business model based on the platform concept applied to the machining industry.
