In the third stage (scaling digital business model), although the services offered are oriented toward greater digitalization through an entire array of field devices connected to the internet (IoT) and organized in a more formalized structure, the business model is still being constructed, companies in this stage are mainly startups. In the fourth stage (innovation ecosystem business model), the entire manufacturing process is digitized, with integration and network connectivity, both between service providers and the extended supply chain of their clients, and new technologies are customized and developed through the interaction of a whole innovation ecosystem.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Research limitations/implications</h3>\u0000<p>Mapping value-based strategies aids in understanding business model structuration in Industry 4.0.

Based on these IPCs, the ownership structure of the patents was established through assignee analysis.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Findings</h3>\u0000<p> Analyzing the networks obtained at different IPC levels, we found that multiple technologies have converged in a BEV, from battery chemistry to electrical engineering and thermal management of electrical machines.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Research limitations/implications</h3>\u0000<p> The outcome of this work has led to the identification of BEV technologies, which can be further developed to assess the trends of technologies and associated gaps and aid technology management for the selection, acquisition, and exploitation of technology.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Practical implications</h3>\u0000<p> The outcome of this work will aid technology management practitioners in better planning the selection, acquisition, and exploitation of technologies associated with BEV.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Originality/value</h3>\u0000<p>The paper adds an evidence-based approach to the body of knowledge to identify the built-in technologies that produce a BEV.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->","PeriodicalId":16301,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142203159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
