By employing the principles of Service-Dominant Logic (S-D Logic) and leveraging the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, Cockpit4.0+ represents a pioneering approach to incorporating the IIoT within ecosystems for value co-creation. This facilitates competition and cooperation among firms, enhancing the operational dynamics within SME networks. Evaluated by experts in the ornamental stone sector, a significant sector of the Portuguese economy, the system demonstrated a positive functional acceptance rate of 78.9%. An experimental test was conducted following the positive preliminary functional evaluation of Cockpit4.0+, especially among more digitally advanced companies. The findings revealed that the on-time delivery performance under current best practices (CB.Ps) was 67.1%. In contrast, implementing coopetition network practices (CN.Ps) increased on-time delivery to 77.5%. These positive evaluations of Cockpit4.0+ underscore the practical applicability of S-D Logic and provide fresh insights into the dynamics of coopetition, particularly beneficial for SMEs. Despite its promising results, the real-world efficacy of IIoT systems like Cockpit4.0+ requires further empirical studies to verify these findings. Future research should focus on examining the scalability of Cockpit4.0+ and its adaptability across various sectors and enhancing its cybersecurity measures to ensure its long-term success and broader adoption.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/asi7030047","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,31]],"date-time":"2024-05-31T03:46:49Z","timestamp":1717127209000},"page":"47","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Coopetition with the Industrial IoT: A Service-Dominant Logic Approach"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"7","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3746-3466","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Agostinho","family":"da Silva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"CISE\u2014Electromechatronic Systems Research Centre, University of Beira Interior, 6201-001 Covilh\u00e3, Portugal"},{"name":"CIGEST\u2014Centre for Research in Management, Lisbon Business School, 1000-002 Lisboa, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Antonio J.
