Description: Service Offering Canvas (SOC) – a visual tool to help digital agencies articulate and plan value propositions for politically important digital themes, such as electronic identification or digital messaging. In essence, SOC works by making its user, the digital agency, actively think about what it does, why and for whom. By explicitly mapping services and stakeholders onto the Canvas, the user is channelled into a service mindset that ensures that stakeholders' needs are appropriately anticipated and met. When used on a continuous basis, SOC provides a way to keep one's finger on the pulse of their value proposition. This Playbook introduces SOC and its operating model with a pragmatic, hands-on approach and real-life examples that can be customised to users' needs.
