Executive Manifesto of the Service Taxonomy Framework (STF)

1. Strategic Purpose

The STF (Service Taxonomy Framework) serves as the semantic core that enables myservy to transform any service into a structured, comprehensible, and actionable digital entity. It is not a static catalog but an active ontology that organizes and streamlines the universe of services with scalable logic.

"While products have catalogs and data has schemas, services had only chaos. Until now."

2. Taxonomic Structure of the STF

The STF organizes each service into three complementary hierarchical levels:
Level 1: Parent Category (Functional Vertical)
Defines the structural domain of the service.
Examples include:

• Health and Wellness
• Education
• Technology
• Logistics

Each parent category enables vertical-specific governance.

Level 2: Dynamic Subcategory (Specific Domain)

Adapts to market evolution.
For instance:

Adapts to market evolution.
For instance:

Health → Therapies → Acupuncture

Subcategories can be proposed by providers and validated through curated governance.

Level 3: Service Type (Transactional Model)

Defines the operational logic of the service.
Types include:

• Bookable (calendar-based).
• Subscription-based (recurrent by nature).
• Quantifiable (measured by unit).
• Quotable (requires proposal or estimate).
• Headless (interface-free, activated via API).

Each service registered with myservy follows this structure.

‍

3. Taxonomic Hyperparameters

The STF is enhanced through two hyperparameters that enable operational, analytical, and intelligent segmentation:

Service Nature

Defines the fundamental relationship between the service provider and receiver:

• Commercial: Designed for external customers.
• Organizational: For internal or interdepartmental use.
• Public: Accessible to citizens, serving collective interests.

Master Categories

Strategic groupings for clustering, reporting, and catalog governance:

• Foundational Services
• Personal Value Services
• Professional and Technical Services
• Business Services
• Public and Institutional Services

A single service can belong to multiple master categories but has one exclusive nature.

4. Integration with myservy Infrastructure

The STF is directly consumed by the DSSM (Dynamic Services Structure Model) and activated by the SIA (Service Interaction Algorithm), enabling the following:

• Dynamic Catalogs: Generated based on context, channel, and user type, ensuring visible services are always relevant.
• Algorithmic Rules: The SIA uses STF semantics (category, type, nature) to activate services under specific conditions.
• Structured Analytics: Usage data is semantically classified, facilitating vertical-specific insights and pattern analyses.
• Conditional Activation: Specific workflows or integrations are triggered only when services belong to certain categories or possess specific attributes.
• Modularization and Versioning: Structured services can be versioned or transformed into reusable modules with clarity and precision.

Furthermore, the STF is interoperable with international standards (CPC, UNSPSC, ISIC), enabling its application across regulated sectors, public platforms, and federated ecosystems.
