What is the Service Community?
The Service Community is an informal, non-profit organisation that seeks to drive service improvements and innovation through collaboration.
The community is continuing to grow and now has more than 250 members from the full spectrum of UK and European industrial organisations, many of whom are leaders in growing their business through aftermarket and service thinking.
Run by service professionals for service professionals, the Service Community runs events with site visits and presentations from some of the UK’s leading aftermarket and service professionals from a wide array of industries.
No fee is charged for attending any of the Service Community events.
Previous events have been hosted by BT Group, Henley Business School, Atlas Copco, Renishaw, GE Power, Cambridge University, Cranfield University and Konica Minolta, for example.
What happens at Service Community Events?
Each service community event is not only a fantastic opportunity to hear about the latest best practices from leading academics and industry professionals but also to network with other service professionals just like you.
The Service Community aims to provide opportunities to find out what practices have worked for other companies, what hasn’t worked, and most importantly, why?
The overarching focus is therefore on the practical – less about theory and more about examining what others find challenging and evaluating how they overcame those challenges.
