Control Dynamics across Platform Business Models PPT
This PPT slide, part of the 31-slide Platform Business Models PowerPoint presentation, provides a comparative analysis of 3 distinct platform business models: Integrator Platform, Product Platform, and Multisided Platform (MSP), focusing on the varying levels of control exerted by the platform and the autonomy granted to external innovators.
The Integrator Platform is characterized by the highest degree of control. It allows the platform to completely lock out external innovators, thereby maintaining significant leverage over them. This model enables the platform to dictate technical specifications that must be adhered to for any external solutions to be integrated. Such stringent control ensures that the platform can maintain quality and consistency across its offerings.
In contrast, the Product Platform retains some control, but allows for greater autonomy for innovators. The platform can impose certain restrictions, particularly regarding technical specifications. However, it no longer maintains ownership of the customer relationship, which empowers external innovators to engage more freely with customers. This shift can lead to increased innovation and responsiveness to market needs.
The Multisided Platform (MSP) represents the model with the least control. Innovators operate with a high degree of autonomy, as they do not need to engage directly with the platform owner during product development. The platform's control is primarily exercised through contractual and regulatory frameworks, which set the terms of usage for the innovators. This model can foster a more dynamic ecosystem, but may also introduce challenges in maintaining quality and coherence across the platform.
Understanding these distinctions is crucial for organizations considering which platform model to adopt, as the level of control directly impacts innovation strategies and market engagement.
