Product-Service Systems (PSS) are advocated to facilitate slow and narrow resource flows by using fewer materials and intensifying their usage.
These systems and business models can also facilitate closed resource loops by designing a clear trajectory of resources that would otherwise be lost after becoming obsolete. Research has identified functions for a PSS to accomplish this.
Join this session to hear about the importance of stating and governing product lifetimes and why it is critical to intercept and transition obsolete assets. What are the true design considerations for closed loop PSS?
