The Most Expensive Service Call Is the Second One, Yet Most Field Service Organizations Normalize It

Aug 18, 2026 By iOPEX Technologies , In iOPEX
A second service call rarely looks like a strategic failure on a dashboard. It appears as another work order, another technician assignment, or another customer follow-up. That accounting view makes repeat visits look operationally normal, even when they are financially destructive.

Srikanth Akkiraju, who has run transformation at Philips and now at ServiceNow, doesn't buy it. In a recent fireside conversation with iOPEX, he made the case that the model was never the problem.

The second is the contract clock, and it stopped years ago.

Rewiring Operations for the Agentic Era: The 4 Decisions on the CEO's Desk

Jul 2, 2026 By Manohar M Atreya , Chief Operating Officer In iOPEX
For two years, the enterprise's question about AI was which model to buy. That question is already settling. Frontier capability is becoming abundant - rentable by anyone, swappable in an afternoon, and roughly identical in your hands and your competitor's. An advantage everyone can buy is not an advantage.
