===Service-making product===
:In [[service management]], a [[product]] is a configuration of resources, created by the organization, that will be potentially valuable for their customers. Products are typically complex and not fully visible to the consumer. The portion of a product that the consumer actually sees does not always represent all of the components that comprise the product and support its delivery. [[Service provider]]s define which product components their [[service consumer]]s see, and tailor them to suit their target consumer groups.
