What is Utility and Warranty?

It is important to assess a service with consideration to the impact of costs and risks on utility and warranty. This is important to gain a complete picture of the viability of a service.

So Let’s look at what is Utility and Warranty.

Utility

Utility is the functionality offered by a product or service to meet a particular need. 

Utility can also be described as ‘what the service does’ and can be used to determine whether a service is ‘fit for purpose’.

To have utility, a service must either support the performance of the consumer or remove constraints from the consumer.  Or do both.

Warranty

Warranty is Assurance that a product or service will meet agreed requirements.

Warranty can be summarized as ‘how the service performs’ and can be used to determine whether a service is ‘fit for use’.

Warranty often relates to service levels in form of “formal agreement, or a marketing message or brand image” aligned with the needs of service consumers.

Warranty is typically referred to as availability of the service, its capacity, levels of security and continuity.

A service warranty is said to be fulfilled, if all defined and agreed conditions of service are met.

Both utility and warranty are essential for a service as it facilitates desired outcomes and therefore help create value.

As Utility and Warranty take into consideration Value. Let’s understand What is Value?
