Perceived quality versus quality of processes: a meta concept of service quality measurement

Author

Abstract

Service quality measurement methods are mostly focused on customer perception. There is a lack of method, combining organisational quality with perceived customer quality. This study proposes a measurement concept focusing equally on both of the above-mentioned factors. For validating this approach, experimental measurements were conducted in five service companies. The gathered feedback allowed the acceptance of the proposed concept. This is not a strictly defined method, but a measurement scheme which is supplemented by a set of known measurement techniques. The proposal constitutes extending the integrated measurement of service quality, which facilitates a deeper understanding of relationships between processes and customer perceptions.
