Abstract:
Since the end of World War II, the service sector has expanded to encompass over 80% of the economy of most developed nations. This places an immense importance on the ability to accurately measure service outputs. However, the most precise method of measuring these outputs is still unclear. This thesis examines Service Quality as a measurement of service outputs, and tests this within an industry-specific context: the low-cost sector of the UK airline industry. This is an industry that has been facing serious challenges since market liberalisation began in 1976. This thesis recognises that offering superior quality may allow airlines to gain a competitive advantage; despite this, there is still no preferred method of measuring Service Quality in this specific context. This PhD therefore examines three methods of Service Quality measurement in the context of the low-cost sector of the UK airline industry: a qualitative method (content analysis), a quantitative survey approach (HiQUAL) and an indexing approach (ALSI). The first study provides an in-depth analysis of the determinants of airline quality through a content analysis study. The second study uses a neglected measurement of Service Quality (HiQUAL) to take a quantitative measurement of Service Quality in the low-cost airline industry. The third study uses measurement (ALSI), an indexing approach, to provide an indication of airline quality. The results of this PhD define the determinants of Service Quality in the low-cost airline industry and confirm the hierarchical nature of Service Quality. This PhD also develops a novel objective metric that represents a shift in ontology from subjective to objective measurements of Service Quality.

Abstract:
The digitalization of products has become an important driver for service innovation in manufacturing firms. The embedding of digital technology in previously non-digital products creates digitalized product platforms that enable digital service innovation. Digital service innovation offers new business opportunities for manufacturing industries, as well as challenges established premises for value creation.  While digital service innovation can be found in many manufacturing industries, this thesis studies service logic in digitalized product platforms in the vehicle industry. Existing Information Systems (IS) literature presents challenges in digital service innovation relating to value, architecture, and generativity. The design of the architecture of digitalized product platforms requires the identification and combination of digital and non-digital assets. Understanding the architectural aspects is useful in digital service innovation. Moreover, with growing instances of generative digital technologies, it is challenging to develop strategies to leverage generativity for service design in digitalized product platforms. While digital technologies are embedded in products, the role of technology-embeddedness in value creation of digital services is relatively unexplored. Drawing on these challenges, this thesis describes and conceptualizes the underlying premises brought by the architecture and generativity to the value creation of services in digitalized product platforms. The research question addressed in this thesis is: What are the underlying premises for services in digitalized product platforms? To address the question, an interpretive qualitative research approach was adopted in a collaborative research project concerning services enabled by digitalization of vehicles. Drawing on digital innovation and service literature, this thesis presents a theoretical perspective on the role of the architecture and generativity of digitalized product platforms for value creation of digital services. This perspective is conceptualized as underlying premises for this specific class of services. The premises frame the service logic in digitalized product platforms and provide a ground for understanding services in digitalized product platforms in relation to value dimensions, architecture and generativity. The premises are based on five concepts: value-in-architecture, value-in-connectivity, fundamental asset for value creation, mutual dependence of modular and layered modular assets, and re-evaluation of value propositions. The proposed premises offer a basis for understanding value creation of this class of services, and guidance for manufacturing firms designing digitalized product platforms.

Abstract:
Metso develops (among many other things) refiners. The refiner grinds the wood chips intopulp. The grinding is done by segments that are placed on a rotor inside the refiner hosing.In time this segments wear and needs to be replaced.When changing refiner segments or performing service to the refiner the rotor needs to berotated. To perform the rotating motion today the overhead crane is used. This procedure isboth impractical, dangerous and takes precious time from the overhead crane. Because ofthis Metso wanted to create a new way to rotate the rotor.The aim of this thesis is to create a tool or equipment which can be used to rotate therefiner rotor and can be installed as an upgrade on all Metso refiner models.The proposed design is driven with a 1.1 kW electrical motor and a gearbox with a gear ratioof approximately 1:217. The torque is transferred from the outgoing gearbox shaft to therefiner shaft with the help of gearwheels. To connect the gearbox gearwheel with the refinershaft gearwheel, the gear motor has to be moveable in a radial direction. This is done by themeans of two shafts that glides in four bushings. On the gearbox shaft a gearwheel with 120mm of face width is mounted. The large face width is used to take up the axial movement ofthe refiner shaft.The proposed concept fulfills all of the demands set in the pilot study. The design is goodbecause of the low cost and straight forward design that is easy to build and simple to use.The disadvantage is that the equipment is a bit large and heavy, but as stationary equipmentthis should not be a problem.

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:
Advancement in digital technology is rapidly changing the contemporary landscape of business and associated networks for manufacturing firms. Many traditional physical products are now being embedded with digital components, providing them digital capability to become digitized products. The digitization of physical products has become an important driver for digital service innovation within manufacturing industries. Such digital service innovation transforms value networks of manufacturing firms in various industries. While digitization of products and digital service innovation can be observed in many manufacturing industries, this thesis focuses on the transformation of value networks within the vehicle industry. This thesis is a collection of papers and a cover paper. The thesis reports from a collaborative project in the vehicle industry. The project explored new digital services for vehicles based on remote diagnostics technology. The exploration and conceptualization of digital services is investigated in a collaborative manner with participants from the vehicle industry. The results reflect that there is a paradigm shift for manufacturing firms digitizing their products, and stretching the business scope from product to solution oriented business. This thesis contributes to the existing literature on digital innovation with insights on the transformation of value networks in the vehicle industry. The research question addressed in this thesis is: How are value networks of manufacturing firms transformed by digital service innovation? To answer the question, this thesis conceptualizes how the value creating pattern of digitized products transforms value networks of manufacturing firms. A model is presented that reflects how the symbiotic value relationship between the digitized product and digital services transforms the roles, relationships and exchanges in the value networks of manufacturing firms. The model can serve as an analytical tool to further advance the knowledge on business aspects in digital innovation. This thesis contributes to practice by providing an understanding of how manufacturing firms can leverage value of digitized products and digital services in value networks.

Abstract:
The present study represents an in-depth empirical investigation into the service elimination process in the British financial services sector. It aims to make a contribution towards the concise development of the literature on service elimination and to provide empirically based recommendations, which can improve the way financial service elimination is practised. The theoretical part of the study focused first on a review of the characteristics of services in general and of financial services in particular and of the service range management activities of financial institutions. Second, the literature on product and service elimination was reviewed. The bulk of this material refers to conceptual propositions and empirical evidence on elimination from manufacturing settings, while conceptual and empirical material from service and financial service settings is alarmingly sparse. The presents tudy conceptualisedth e service elimination process as consisting of three broad stages, a) the pre-elimination stage, b) the actual service elimination decision-making process and c) the post-elimination stage. The study adopted a research approach based on the broad hypothesis that service elimination decisions are not made in a vacuum (as the limited literature on service and financial service elimination assumes explicitly or implicitly) but that they are influenced by contextual organisational and environmental characteristics of companies. Based on the above conceptualisations, the research objectives were to a) identify the content of the service elimination process (i. e., the decision variables involved in the various steps of the process) b) measure the relative importance/frequency of use of the above content and c) measure the influence of a set of contextual independent variables on the relative importance/frequency of use of the content of the service elimination process. To meet the above research objectives, a pluralistic research method was adopted. For the identification component of the research objectives qualitative research (in-depth interviews) was conducted, while for the measurement component quantitative research was conducted(mail survey). The findings indicated that service elimination decisions were the outcome of a multi-step process, which with very few exceptions (i. e., the way in which British financial institutions identified financial services as candidates for elimination) was found to be largely informal and unsophisticated. Moreover service elimination was rated as the least important service range management activity and was allocated the least amount of resources (temporal, monetary and human). The findings also suggested that the content of the service elimination process was both similar and different to elimination practice in manufacturing settings. Among the most obvious similarities was the paramount importance of sales and profitability considerations in making products and financial services candidates for elimination. Among the most striking differences was that while a product is fully eliminated, partial elimination was the predominant outcome of the service elimination process in the studied setting. With regards to the contextual influence, it was found that the relative importance/frequency of the decision variables involved in the service elimination process varied in relation to the type and the size of individual financial institutions, the pursued overall business strategy, and degree of market orientation, the degree of formalisation of the service elimination process, the number of services in the range (service diversity), the type of financial service which is considered for elimination, the method of its delivery process, the intensity of competition and of the legislative environment and the volatility of the technological environment. As such, the findings confirmed the hypothesised dynamism of the service elimination decisions and suggested that any attempt to describe the service elimination process in a golden rule way that fits all companies, all financial services and all environmental circumstances would be misleading.

Abstract:
Financial services companies pride themselves on delivering quality services to customers. However, in order to sustain their revenue streams in challenging macroeconomic times and rapid technological growth, a shift in culture is required. The facets of corporate entrepreneurship (CE) are explored to determine whether or not it advocates worthy practices in driving service innovation (SI) in order to maintain the competitive advantage of financial services companies. A case study approach was taken that gathered individuals' responses from a leading South African bank. This approach enabled the researcher to understand the state of CE within the organisation and how CE has influenced SI. The case study used quantitative data gathered through an online survey utilising scales for CE and SI. A factor analysis on the gathered data was used to refine the number of data variables. Linear and multiple regression analyses were conducted against the resultant factors of CE and SI. The findings revealed that most of the underlying constituencies of CE are positively correlated to SI. A true assessment of the financial services industry was not attained. However, the insights gained from this study are useful to companies that are looking to find methods to revive or improve their commercial services offered to customers.

Abstract:
The New Zealand hospitality sector has become increasingly competitive in the past decade. The increase in competition has prompted motel management to focus on generating favourable customers’ perceptions of their service as favourable perceptions encourage repeat purchase. Strategically, retaining existing customers and attracting new customers will be critical if motels are going to remain profitable in New Zealand’s competitive accommodation market. There is a conceptual gap in the marketing literature as there has been very limited published research on service quality, value, customer satisfaction or behavioural intentions on the motel industry. This study seeks to fill this conceptual gap in the motel industry by identifying the dimensions of service quality, and empirically examining the interrelationships among the service quality dimensions, service quality, value, customer satisfaction, and behavioural intentions. The findings of this study are based on the analysis of a sample of 349 respondents who stayed at a full service New Zealand motel on Riccarton Road in Christchurch. Of the 600 questionnaires distributed, a total of 349 useable responses were returned resulting in a 58.2% useable response rate. Support was found for use of the primary dimensions: Interaction Quality, Physical Environment Quality, and Outcome Quality as broad dimensions of service quality in a hierarchical factor structure for motels. Ten sub-dimensions of service quality, as perceived by motel customers, were determined using focus group interviews and exploratory factor analysis. These ten sub-dimensions were: (1) Staff Professionalism, (2) Accuracy of Reservation, (3) Tangibles, (4) Cleanliness and Comfort, (5) Noise Level, (5) Parking, (7) Security, (8) Accuracy of Billing, (9) Location, and (10) Pleasant Stay. Support for the hypothesised paths between Service Quality, Value (price), Satisfaction, and Favourable Behavioural Intentions was confirmed. The results of the regression analysis make a contribution to the service marketing theory by providing an empirically based insight into the Service Quality construct in the motel industry. The study also provides a framework for understanding the effects of the three primary dimensions on Service Quality and how Service Quality affects Value (price), Satisfaction, and Favourable Behavioural Intentions. Value (price) was also empirically supported as an important predictor variable that has a moderating effect on the relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction.

Abstract:
Abstract Background  Branding is a significant asset for a company, and can provide a firm with sole association and a special meaning for the consumer. Consumer research generally stresses the idea of positive consumption of brands and a gap in the consumer behaviour studies regarding brand avoidance can be exemplified. Subsequently, brand avoidance has recently received more attention, as the importance to identify what brands consumers deliberately avoid is as valuable to recognize. In order to get a more comprehensive image of the market, the relevance to examine the drivers of service brand avoidance has been identified. Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the drivers of why people deliberately avoid certain service brands. Based upon the purpose, three questions have been framed: What are the drivers of brand avoidance in the service industry? How can the drivers identified connect to previous research, primarily made by Lee et al. (2009b) and later revised by Knittel et al. (2016)? Is it possible to draw conclusions regarding all services? Method The thesis is mainly exploratory in its nature due to the insights that is required in order to investigate people’s behaviour. The data has been collected through 16 semi- structured interviews where participants have shared their stories connected to service brand avoidance. The data has then been interpreted and in most cases been connected to previous literature. Conclusion Most consumers avoid several types of service brands, both deliberately and unconsciously. The findings from interviews have been connected to previous literature, but also some new conclusions have been made regarding the service industry. Five categories with sub-themes have been identified and linked to earlier studies by Lee et al. (2009b) and Knittel et al. (2016); experiential, identity, moral, deficit-value, and marketing avoidance. The findings show a deeper knowledge of brand avoidance but solely in the service industry.

Full text
Abstract:

In twenty-first century, the industry competes heavily. Entrepreneurs try to use technology to develop their business. However, using technology generates high costs. So companies need to find a new way to survive by using the existing resources to gain maximum benefit. Knowledge management is one of interesting alternatives as it can deliver competitive advantage such as greater competencies and synergy, more balanced decisions and less errors, more creativity and innovation, broader collaboration and knowledge sharing, and easier links to expertise and deeper understanding.

This paper deals with various aspects of knowledge management particularly concentrating on knowledge sharing in service industry. Issues in the context of different data sources and the research with qualitative methodology create the in-depth knowledge to understand how to do knowledge work for gaining competitive advantage. The emphasis is placed on analysis and evaluation of problems and barriers of both cases as applied from all data collection.

In the paper, each chapter has the following set-up. Chapter 2 highlights methodology. The qualitative approach has been used to obtain information and provide data analysis. A complete analysis of knowledge management has been developed by using a case study method with secondary data to analyze how service industry uses knowledge management to manage in its sector. Chapter 3 gives theoretical frame of reference. The definitions of knowledge and culture are explained. Problems and barriers of knowledge sharing are also presented. Chapter 4 gives analysis. Conclusion is presented in the final chapter. The findings show that to improve service and customer satisfaction, the industry has to find out and use knowledge management appropriately. Knowledge management helps reducing time to find information and sharing decision making. For the last part, the discussion and recommendation from culture and knowledge affecting knowledge management in the companies has been reported. Because of the time limitation of the study, the paper focuses only on the section of service industry. An area for further study would be using other research methods such as interview to gain more in-depth understanding and survey to increase reliability and validity of this topic.

Abstract:
The goal of this thesis is to identify and analyze the dominant revenue models in the OGS industry, as well as the logic behind the choice of a specific model. Identification of the prevalent models and their characteristics would in conjunction with results from previous research in the field provide a complete overview of the financial aspects of OGS operation.The goals of this thesis was reached through an analysis of the business model of Microsoft’s Xbox LIVE (XBL) service, one of the leading console platform OGSs, in conjunction with a similar case study of Blizzard Entertainment’s Battle.net service presented in former work by the author. Both case studies include all aspects of the business model, according to the business model ontology defined by Alexander Osterwalder in his PhD dissertation.The five identified dominant revenue models are the subscription, advertisement, micro transaction, digital distribution and additional sales model. From the provided estimates, the subscription, micro transaction and digital retail model are the most profitable among the five as standalone models. However, the study has shown that most successful OGSs utilize several revenue models in conjunction in order to reduce the negative effects associated with each one individually. In addition, the use of several models improves price differentiation possibilities, which in many cases may lead to increased revenue. While the pricing strategies among the services are many, the specific implementations of the dominant models among the studied services imply that the willingness to pay among OGS users are low for features and content not personally valued by each individual user.The general cost structure of OGSs has also been updated with additional results uncovered through this research. For an OGS relying on micro transactions and digital distribution for revenue, this study has shown that the bandwidth and support costs increase substantially compared to a service without digital distribution, even outgrowing the hosting costs for the service itself. Thus, favorable partnerships and other means to reduce bandwidth costs may be seen as equally important cost saving initiatives as those outlined in former work.

Although the issues of service failure, service recovery and customer respond had been discussed by researchers, the moderating effect of service recoveryon customer respond remain unclearly. Therefore the problem of this study is intending to find out customer respond to service failure regarding to its service recovery. 803 copies of CIT questionnaire survey was taken as the empirical data and the findings are as follows:56.4% of these people think that it is good to receive service recovery. However, 43.6% of them thinks that it is bad. Such result shows that it still can not satisfy customer even if service recovery has been taken. Customer gives highest evaluation when service recovery comes free charge. On the contrast, the lowest evaluation comes to no service recovery. Apart from oral apology, additional physical things surely enhance service evaluation. The influence of service recovery on purchase intention is positive. Different service recovery satisfaction degree shows different purchase intention. The higher the satisfaction degree,the more positive the purchase intention. The moderating effect of service recovery on customer complain behavior(CCB) is also positive. The customer whodid not receive service recovery, their CCB will be private complain(47.39%) and voice complain(36.97%). The percentage has significant changing.Goodwin & Ross proposes that interaction fairness causes different customer response. The research based on this concept. From the reasoning process, it can also imply interaction fairness to the influence of service recovery on CCB. That is a serendipity of this study.

Due to the rapid progress of technology and communication development applications in the market in recent years, Telecommunications services are driven to the field of multiple services. Traditional exclusive market has been insufficient to meet the actual demands from the enterprise market, to let industry and channels face more challenges and threats. To face the external competition in this industry with the same services, and apply the price competition to plunder the users and the markets in such a competitive business environment, we must be able to find the product differentiations to enhance the products competitive advantage in order to sustained profitability and sustainable competitive advantages. The industry differences within the market segments are also very important, so the enterprise''s business strategy is also important for the company to meet customer demands. We must first understand what the company basic customers’ demands to adopt customer-oriented point of view, but not the non-product-oriented point of view. It probably makes the original companies in different industries become competitors to the same industry due to the evolution of customer demands and the progress of new technology. This study will examine the part within the industrial services innovation and service quality, and also look for the other opportunities in the VPN (Virtual Private Network) service industry.

Innovation has been the focal point of discussions in academics and among practitioners. Studies show that the accumulation of social capital can be achieved via knowledge sharing, interpersonal activities and collaboration among internal members of an organization, and the accumulated social capital can drive innovations. However, scholars have yet to reach a consensus view regarding whether social capital is related to service innovation behavior. This study seeks to fill in the research gap by exploring the relationship between these two factors. This study examines the relationship between social capital and service innovation behavior of members in a given organization in the hotel and restaurant industry (as representatives of the service industry). The sample is the companies with over NT$100 million in capitalization and sizable human capital or public relation resources, according to data from Common Wealth Magazine, China Credit Information Service Ltd and Tourism Bureau, Ministry of Transportation and Communications. A questionnaire survey is conducted to gather sample data. A total of 445 questionnaires are issued and a total of 300 usable ones are returned. This study uses a structural equation model to test the hypotheses. The results indicate that (1) the higher the social capital owned by the employees in the hotel and restaurant industry, the higher their service innovation behavior; (2) gender is a factor that affects individuals’ service innovation behavior in the hotel and restaurant industry. Finally, this study discusses the research findings, presents the management implications and suggests follow-up studies, for the reference of the academics and practitioners.

Information search is one of the important steps in the process of consumer purchase strategy. This study attempts to improve the explanation of information-search behavior in service industry. The objective is to measure price-search behavior and non-price search behavior in a more direct way. Limited by finance and time available, this study chooses colleges students as the main interviewees. And choosing high- price service--Foreign language center and low-price service--barber shop as the representative service products. The conclusions of this study are presented as follows: 1.No matter for high-price service or low-price service, the consumption experience and market maven explain significant amounts of variation in price search behavior and non-price search behavior. 2.No matter for high-price service or low-price service, consumers who perceive a wide dispersion of prices will search more price information than consumers who perceive a narrower dispersion of prices. And there is no relationship between non-price search behavior and dispersion of price. When consumer focus on price information, he will do more price search. 3.No matter for high-price service or low-price service, limitation of mobility explain significant amounts of variation in non-price search behavior. That because non-price is a subjective factor, consumers have to experience these service products. So the limitation of mobility is related with non-price search behavior. 4.Only for low-price service product, gender is one factor that will influence price search behavior and non-price search behavior. Female does more information search than male does in low-price service product, because female is more interested in the topic about beauty than male is.
