Abstract

The proliferation of the service sector in the age of big data highlights the role of customers as co-creators for business value. Customer interactions on digital platforms make a significant contribution to the vast amount of big data. Considering the lack of systematic and comprehensive studies on this research stream, the objective of the paper is to conduct a concept-centric literature review on customer co-creation from the lens of the service-dominant logic and guide future research. The paper systematically synthesizes and categorizes 50 articles by the concept matrix to reveal the interrelationships among them. The result of the paper provides a holistic overview of value, resources, and mechanisms relevant to customer co-creation. Concrete ideas for future research directions are also proposed for enriching the academic literature and promoting practical implications. The paper holds important implications for accelerating customer co-creation for service providers to achieve big-data-driven competitive advantages.

Customer Co-creation through the Lens of Service-dominant Logic: A literature Review

The proliferation of the service sector in the age of big data highlights the role of customers as co-creators for business value. Customer interactions on digital platforms make a significant contribution to the vast amount of big data.

The paper systematically synthesizes and categorizes 50 articles by the concept matrix to reveal the interrelationships among them. The result of the paper provides a holistic overview of value, resources, and mechanisms relevant to customer co-creation. Concrete ideas for future research directions are also proposed for enriching the academic literature and promoting practical implications. The paper holds important implications for accelerating customer co-creation for service providers to achieve big-data-driven competitive advantages.
