Assurance: A customer of any organization must always feel assured that his investment in a company’s product or service will be worth the amount they pay.

Service innovation happens when a company changes and improves their customer service methods. This makes the company’s product more desirable to customers because they are offered better customer service. This also gives the company the opportunity to build a better relationship with their customers. Often service innovation involves getting customer feedback on how to better their customer service. Better customer service creates more customers and; therefore, more cash flow and profits are experienced by the company.

Tangible goods, or rather manufactured goods, have been the dominant medium of exchange for centuries. However, recent decades have proved that it is no longer the case as there has been a prevalence of being service oriented (Vargo and Lusch, 2004:1-2). Services, as defined by Vargo and Lusch (2004), are “the application of specialized competences (knowledge and skills) through deeds, processes, and performances for the benefit of another entity or the entity itself (p.2).” Utilizing services gives businesses an edge, a competitive advantage, particularly in an evolving competitive market, something which Metalfrio is definitely part of (Vargo and Lusch, 2004:9). Those businesses that learn to adapt tend to do well. In addition, Vargo and Lusch (2004) write this shift to services is also a shift from producer perspective to a customer perspective (p.2). Thus, it leads to more of a collaborative effort where co-creation leads to adding value to the service rather than a product having value (Vargo and Lusch, 2004:6). Also, customers rather develop relationships with those that can provide a range of related services over an extended period of time, thus allowing businesses retain their clients for the long term (Vargo and Lusch, 2004:13).

According to Sutton, R. I., in order to innovate, we have to “ignore what has happened before” (Sutton, 2001). However to ignore any existing, globally accepted phenomenon, we need to develop something that not only performs the desired functionality but also does it more efficiently. This definitely is a challenge for service based companies, which believe in using the existing industry standard tools for catering to the client needs with little or no importance to improving the way in which the deliverable was created. Not to forget the projects operated within these companies are bound by rigid timelines, so the idea of innovation is intimidating for the employee, the managers and the stakeholder.
