Abstract:
SynopsisThis paper deals with a miscellaneous group of food-related industries not directly covered by the principal papers of the Symposium. Some of these serve the needs of larger processing companies for intermediates. Others produce a variety of products for retail sale. Few are large employers of labour or capital but cumulatively they make a significant contribution to the Scottish economy. The paper lists the type of manufacture in some detail, and the product range—from tripe dressing to confectionery—is too wide to permit easy classification.These industries serve a virtually non-expanding total market, and are thus for the most part highly competitive, quality and service as much as price being the chief weapon of survival. In general, production is concentrated in small units of modest capital investment. Thus they have the advantage of flexibility and can quickly change product emphasis as circumstances demand, in contrast to the giants of the food industry, limited as they are by the inertia of their size. But these ‘service’ industries have the double disadvantage of limited access to technical and scientific resources, and the burden of complex legislation which falls proportionately more heavily on them than on their larger brethren.The paper examines aspects of these limitations and outlines suggestions for the practical resolution of some of these disadvantages.

Abstract:
The purpose of competitive strategy is to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) and thereby enhance a business's performance. The authors focus on the distinctive organizational skills and resources underlying SCA in service industries and the moderating effects of the characteristics of services, service industries, and firms within an industry on the skills and resources underlying a business's competitive positional advantages. The proposed conceptual model of SCA in service industries and propositions builds on relevant literature in the fields of marketing, strategic management, and industrial organization economics.

Abstract:
The paper focuses on the issue of international cross-border trade in services. It argues that its current understanding may be quite misleading because the concept of service is not accurately delineated and because available data are not appropriately understood. First, bearing in mind Hill's (1999) service definition, the paper discusses the extent of service-producing activities. It stresses that 'services' producing 'knowledge capturing products' should be recognized as genuine goods-producing activities. It also asserts that cross-border trade in genuine services is still scarce, even if Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have made it easier in some cases. Second, the paper explains that the picture of trade in services, which the Balance of Payments (BOP) displays, although improving, is nevertheless quite heterogeneous and blurring. Contrary to a common view, the BOP does not provide accurate information about trade of service industries. Moreover, still unfamiliar is the fact that, for several significant services, service industries are not the major actual international service traders.

Abstract:
The service sectors always focus to upgrade and improve the service quality when they pursue the new product or services to the customers. Based on the service quality literature, this paper assesses the five dimension of SERVQUAL model and make a gap analysis including antecedents of gaps and effects of education to mould the service quality in different organizational settings, most importantly in the service sector. To collect the information and knowledge on service quality, different service quality literature, practices as well as notions of the service delivery of different service sector is identified, reviewed, and conceptualized. The literature and different findings show that there is a positive and significant mediating effect of education that remains with service quality in the different organizational settings. Basically, in the service sector, quality service plays a vital role to the targeted customer for perceiving about the products or delivered services. Hence, the service provider is the major determinant factor for stretching the updated service quality ubiquitously to meet customer expectations.

Abstract:
The modern workplace had dramatically changed because the nature of work, workforce and work relations had changed; hence, the changes in the needs of industries. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between Nigerian industries and the factor inputs that formed the needs of industries with keen aim on the Technical and Vocational Education and Training. Using the Central Bank of Nigeria Data, Vector Autoregression was used to test the relationship among the series of yearly output of all industries and the service sector in Nigeria from 1982 to 2021. The Technical and Professional Service subsector was used as one of the independent variables in the service sector. The Johansen Cointegration Test was used to test for convergence and long-term relations between industries and the service sector. The Wald Test was used to test for the significance of coefficients of Technical Services inputs on the Industrial Output. The VAR shows that more than 95% variation in the Industrial Output are explainable by variations in the factor inputs. The pairwise Granger Causality Test was used to test for the short run causality between the industrial output and the factor input. The study found that of Technical and Telecommunication services impacted on the changes in the Industrial Output in in the short run. The study recommended the need for the increase in the funding of TVET institutions, improvement in the quality of TVET training to include soft skills in order to meet the industrial requirements for the changing world of works and increased public – private partnership in order to transfer class training to the field.

Over the years, scholars studying technology-based innovation have uncovered patterns of success and failure. Many of the lessons learned from these observations can serve as powerful guidelines for leaders of industry as they guide their firms into new markets or help defend against emerging challengers. Most of the studies to date, however, have been based on research in manufactured product industries, while relatively little has been done to understand technology and innovation in service industries. The initial motivation behind this thesis was to interpret established principles of innovation in the context of services-based industries. In proposing this topic, I assumed that certain aspects of product-based principles also describe patterns in service industries. My research revealed that some principles apply to both sectors. Others need to be extended. Still others apply selectively, depending on the nature of the service that is being examined. In the process of synthesizing the lessons learned from my literature review and the case studies I examined, Professor James Utterback pointed me to the convergence of product and services and the role of product platforms in this paradigm. What emerged was the idea of a technology delivery platform and throughout the latter parts of this thesis, I explore different implications of this concept.

Gorst, Jonathan Keith. "Modelling customer satisfaction in service industries." Thesis, Sheffield Hallam University, 2000. http://shura.shu.ac.uk/19707/.

Abstract:
This research considers a Customer Satisfaction Index approach and its relative benefits to the UK community. It is focussed on the service industries in both the public and private sectors. It looks at, and develops the measuring and modelling processes involved and employs a Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) methodology. The research critiques two of the leading methodologies currently available (Maximum Likelihood and Fixed Point Estimation) before selecting one from which to model the whole process. Throughout the research, three different structural models are considered. These vary in how the different latent variables are connected together, but are based around a core of specific latent variables, which together make up a customer's total buying experience. Two of the models considered were by other authors, while the third (Sheffield Model) was a direct development of this research. The data has been collected by the means of a questionnaire. Over the life of the research a generic questionnaire has been developed to produce a tool that is focused on the specific issues that the model requires for it to operate. The final part of the research contemplates how a company can use the results of the index to pin point where improvements in their customer service provision would have the largest impact on their overall customer satisfaction index score. The research considers the different aspects of customer satisfaction and their place within a Total Quality Management approach. However, the index is a completely self-contained product, which allows any company to measure how well it is satisfying its customers. The index calculates an index score between one and one hundred. The ultimate aim of the index is for a company's score to be compared over time, against other companies within the same industry, against other companies from other industries, against the national average and even against company's throughout Europe and the World, as National Indices operate overseas. In fact, it is envisaged that the index will act as a way for individual companies to benchmark themselves against the best customer service companies in the world. It is hoped that over time the customer satisfaction index can become a key indicator as to the state of the UK economy. After all, satisfied customers are very often loyal customers, they tend to buy more, more often, and satisfied customers are often willing to pay premium prices for a company's products (Kristensen & Martensen, 1996).

Hogg, Gillian. "Service quality in business advisory services : the case of the public relations industry in Scotland." Thesis, University of Stirling, 1996. http://hdl.handle.net/1893/2583.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis concerns quality of service in the context of business advisory services. The economic rationale for improving any quality standard is based on the theory that by creating customer satisfaction and a perception of service quality, an organisation can retain its existing customers and attract new business, thus improving market share. This argument is based on the assumption that by improving the quality of the service delivered to customers, product offerings can be differentiated in such a way as to improve customer value. This is a customer defined approach to quality and assumes that the provider has understood and responded to customer requirements. In order to achieve this it is necessary to understand the particular situational characteristics of this market and the criteria customers use to assess the service they receive. In order to investigate service quality in business advisory services, the public relations industry in Scotland is considered as a specific case. Public relations is a business advisory service concerned with the management of image or reputation. However it is not a homogeneous product and is made up of a number of specific functions that equate to two main product variants. Based on these product variants, the research identifies three main purchaser groups in Scotland. However, although outcome expectations are consistent across purchaser groups, there are different expectations of the process of delivering the service according to the product variant purchased. The research concludes that when purchasers are buying a task level service their perceptions of quality are based upon tangible, measurable service features, whilst purchasers of a managerial product variant are concerned with process factors that lead to developing a relationship of trust. There are also a number of 'bottom-line' expectations, common across purchaser groups, which are essential to a perception of quality. Service quality, in the business advisory service context, is dependant on recognising what constitutes the core product and tailoring the process of delivery to satisfy purchaser expectations. The implications of this research are that an understanding of context is essential when considering service quality, in order that customer expectations and provider delivery combine to achieve added value. Secondly, that product definitions are required in determining the expectations associated with performance quality; and thirdly, that customer segmentation based upon product variant is a viable proposition in business advisory services.

Abstract:
Analysis made in the article allows to conclude that the SME sector of high-tech manufacturing industries plays growing role in solving the problems of employment in developed countries. However, the major problem is that it is capable for only partial compensation of the loss of jobs in labour intensive sectors of the economy. Accumulation of knowledge of the population in industrialized countries together with high levels of computer literacy contributes to the revitalization of business services sellers that are mainly small sized businesses. In the era of fast growing technology industries, in particular related to IT sector, the role of SMEs in economy is increasing as they are main players in start -up communities and IT industries in general. Thus they can growingly contribute to the employment and labour market. The authors proceed from the assumption that service sector, and business services in particular, to a certain extent are capable of absorbing of workforce. This article argues that employment in the service sector in the developed economies is still largely focused on traditional sectors of activity. The purpose of the paper is to investigate latest trends of SMEs role in employment in the developed countries and the role of service sector in stabilizing labour market. Theoretical approaches, statistical data and policy analysis are used to research contemporary labour market trends. Knowledge - intensive services that are important from the point of view of economic dynamics, only start to concur positions in the developed countries.

Abstract:
This paper presents the results of a study on the ways that innovation and productivity are connected in the Colombian manufacturing and service industry. Using data from the Manufacturing Innovation Survey (2007-2008) and the Service Innovation Survey (2008-2009), the paper addresses two main questions: first, whether patterns of innovations differ among manufacturing and services industries, and second, whether service firms innovate, and, if so, whether their innovation approach differs from that of manufacturing. The main findings are (1) that service firms engage in process innovation, both technological and nontechnological; (2) that the probability of undertaking innovation increases with investment in R&D labs and firm size, regardless of the industry; and (3) that the more intensive the investment in innovation, the higher the probability of introducing innovations. The econometric results show that the response is higher in manufacturing than in services. Finally, labor productivity is greatly enhanced by the introduction of innovations, although surprisingly the estimated coefficient shows that the effect is larger for service industries than for manufacturing industries.

Abstract:
The service sector has become one of the most important economic activity in the world economy in both developed and developing economies. Services are crucial for further developing the Latin American and Caribbean countries, providing a strong economic dynamism and creating the source for job creation and welfare. Service innovation is incremental for ensuring strong and competitive growth of services in the region. Agriculture and manufacturing industries also need service innovation to become more competitive. Service innovation shows some particuliarities, distinctive from innovation in goods, such as the relatively less importance of R&D and patents. Service innovation policies are justified by a wide range of reasons, including the existence of market and systemic failures. A number of developed and developing countries have recently promoted service innovation policies, following various strategies. Both horizontal and vertical policies need to used, together with systemic policies to fully integrate services in the existing innovation policies. The case studies coordinated by the Inter-American Development Bank study on services and productivity in Latin American and the Caribbean suggest the need for understanding the peculiarities of different subsectors and countries to promote innovation, maximize its impact, and face a wide range of obstacles hampering innovation in services. The first policy priority would be to raise the awareness of the topic in the policy and business agendas.

Abstract:
Requirements for the fabrication and inspection of transmission pipeline girth welds are given in national codes such as API 1104, CSA Z662, and BS 4515. Their objective is to ensure an acceptable level of quality, and implicitly, operational safety. They seek to achieve this by imposing workmanship standards which prescribe the allowable size and frequency of various discontinuities. These standards are largely arbitrary and thus highly conservative in most situations. However, the potential for economic benefit, an increasing demand for safety, and the development of fracture mechanics technology have motivated the inclusion of optional fitness-for-service (FFS)-based flaw acceptance criteria. Two major objectives of the present work were to educate those unfamiliar with structural reliability concepts, particularly as they apply to pipeline integrity, and review the worldwide codification of LRFD for industries that fabricate and maintain welded structures. The final objective was to develop a library of PSFs for pipeline girth weld flaw assessment thereby aligning girth weld fitness-for-service assessment procedures with emerging LRFD codes for transmission pipelines.

Abstract:
Many developing economies have seen a rise in e-commerce activity within their borders, and a decline in income from traditional industries as a result of COVID-19, meaning the digital economy offers a potentially unexploited source of tax revenue. . As a result, more developing countries may soon begin adopting some sort of digital tax. The economic activities which may be subject to the Digital Services Tax (DST) may vary from country to country. It will, therefore, be necessary for businesses operating in multiple jurisdictions across developing countries to keep up with the changes in digital taxes. Before implementing a DST scheme, developing countries are advised to perform an in-depth cost-benefit analysis and due considerations. Some developing (and several developed) countries have already unilaterally implemented a “provisional” DST system. Other developing countries are on the process of implementing DST or have simply announced that they will implement a DST soon. Although most of the countries so far actively working on DST (are rich countries, a growing list of developing countries are joining the process. Some examples include the following: Malaysia, Indonesia, Kenya, Nigeria, Argentina and, Chile. It is important to mention that the literature on DST is very limited – although growing, and the evidence base around the economic impacts is particularly scarce. This is partly due to the quite recent nature of DST implementation. The evidence is even scarcer for developing countries – Due to these limitations, this rapid evidence review looks at different types of available literature – including reports and blogs issued by international financial institutions and development agencies. The rest of the report will give an overview of key proposed approaches to tax the digital economy, provide a very brief account of the economic impact of DST, provide a brief mapping of the implementation of digital service taxes in developing countries, provide a brief description of each DST system and about the economic impact of the DST, finally a brief account or attributes of a “good” DST system.
