Business Model Archetype Classification

University of St. Gallen — 55 Business Model Navigator (Gassmann et al.)

SG-010 Digitization WHAT High
Direct: business_model_type_primary=Cloud infrastructure termination would cause minimal operational disruption; KMI's core operations rely on OT/SCADA systems, not cloud-hosted revenue platforms; marginal_cost_of_growth=Near-zero marginal cost on existing infrastructure; incremental growth requires capital expansion (compressors, pipe) but not proportional labor; strong operating leverage
