Developing a Conceptual Framework for PSS Business Models

This paper proposes a conceptual framework to assist with the development of PSS business models. The paper includes a literature review of theory applied in existing PSS research, and a review to identify existing theoretical perspectives that could be applied in the field of PSS business model development. Five theoretical perspectives are considered as a basis for the creation of a new conceptual framework. The output of the paper is a new conceptual framework that can be used to help researchers to identify existing theories to help to develop understanding of PSS business models.
