Service Corporation International (SCI) stands as the largest provider of funeral and cemetery services in North America, carving a niche in an industry that one might describe as eternal. Founded in 1962 by Robert L. Waltrip, with a keen vision to consolidate the fragmented deathcare sector, SCI grew through acquisitions and innovation, transforming what was once a highly localized business into a standardized, yet compassionate, service. The company's strategy pivots on the concept of scale; by acquiring numerous small, family-run funeral homes and cemeteries, SCI not only expanded its geographical footprint but also streamlined operations and leveraged its buying power. This approach allowed for an efficient delivery model, offering both economy of scale and consistency of service, while still maintaining the delicate touch required in its line of work. SCI's revenue model hinges on offering a suite of services that span pre-planned funeral arrangements, at-need services, and memorialization products. Pre-planning services allow families to arrange funerals in advance, thus locking in prices and easing future emotional and financial burdens, benefiting SCI with upfront cash flow and customer lock-in. At-need services, delivered at the time of immediate demand, capture the urgency and necessity driven by unforeseen events. Memorialization products, ranging from caskets to headstones, complement the core service offerings, each providing additional revenue streams. SCI’s adept navigation of this sensitive industry ensures its profitability, while its broad scope of operations caters to diverse needs and keeps the company intricately woven into the fabric of North American communities.
