PREFACEThis book has been written to serve as a resource and reference book for professionalsin service organizations. This text has been written from a multidisciplinary perspective.Discussions of topics blend concepts, theory, and practice from fields such as operations, marketing, international management, economics, strategy, psychology, humanresources, and management science. The authors believe a multidisciplinary approach isbest for efficient and effective management of service organizations and their operations.The book can also be used as a textbook for college-level courses such as ServiceManagement or Service Operations Management with its companion textbook.Although Parts I and II present nonquantitative material, Parts III and IV present bothquantitative and nonquantitative material that can be used for efficient and effectivemanagement of service operations. Because of this, it is suitable for a service management course with or without quantitative orientation. It is also suitable for a traditionaloperations management course with special emphasis on services.Part I, “Understanding Services,” consists of Chapters 1 through 6 and focuses on understanding services. It introduces the reader to the service concept and provides background material in several important areas. Chapter 1, “The Important Role ServicesPlay in an Economy,” addresses the role of services in our society. Chapter 2, “TheNature of Services and Service Encounters,” discusses characteristics of services andexamines the importance of the service encounter. Chapter 3, “Customers: The Focus ofService Management,” focuses on customers as consumers of services and their needsand motives as they impact service purchase decisions. Chapter 4, “Globalization ofServices,” provides an international perspective on services and discusses the challengesof globalization. Chapter 5, “Service Strategy and Competitiveness,” prepares thegroundwork for the three themes of quality, customer satisfaction, and value creation,and focuses on the impact of strategy on competitiveness. Chapter 6, “EthicalChallenges in Service Management,” explores ethical issues and challenges managers, ingeneral, and service managers in particular, face.The emphasis of Part II, “Building the Service System,” is on building the system to createcustomer value and satisfaction with superior quality services. Chapter 7, “Technologyand Its Impact on Services and Their Management,” focuses on the role technologyplays in service management. Chapter 8, “Design and Development of Services andService Delivery Systems,” lays out the principles of service design and discusses theapplication of techniques that have been successfully used in manufacturing to buildquality and value into services. Chapter 9, “Supply Chains in Services and TheirManagement,” focuses on supply chains of service organizations. This section concludesPrefacexxi

with Chapter 10, “Locating Facilities and Designing Their Layout,” which discusses twoother important topics in building and operating the system: facility location and layoutdesign.Part III, “Operating the Service System,” is concerned with issues related to operating theservice system and challenges managers of service organizations face. One of the majorchallenges, managing the demand for and supply of services, is the topic of Chapter 11,“Managing Demand and Supply in Services.” A supplement to this chapter, “Queuingand Simulation,” covers two important topics: queuing and simulation. Chapter 12,“Service Quality and Continuous Improvement,” provides the basic concepts of qualityin general and service quality in particular. Technical aspects of quality assurance arepresented in a supplement, “Tools and Techniques of Total Quality Management.” Oneof the biggest challenges service managers face is increasing the productivity of serviceemployees. This important topic and approaches to increasing productivity in serviceorganizations are discussed in Chapter 13, “Service Productivity and Measurement ofPerformance.” Also presented is a brief discussion of Data Envelopment Analysis as apowerful tool in measuring the efficiency of service organizations. Part III concludeswith Chapter 14, “Management of Public and Private Nonprofit Service Organizations,”with a discussion of an important segment of the service industry: public and nonprofitservice organizations. The nature of these organizations as well as the challenges theirmanagers face is discussed.Part IV, “Tools and Techniques for Managing Service Operations,” presents the tools andtechniques for managing service operations. Chapter 15, “Forecasting Demand forServices,” Chapter 16, “Vehicle Routing and Scheduling,” Chapter 17, “ProjectManagement,” Chapter 18, “Linear and Goal Programming Applications for Services,”and Chapter 19, “Service Inventory Systems,” are included in this section.We would like to thank our editor Jeanne Glasser Levine for envisioning this project andher encouragement for its completion. We also thank our project editor Betsy Gratnerand the professional staff of FT Press for their help with the preparation of the book forpublication. Last but not the least, we hope this text helps you achieve your professionaland educational objectives as a successful manager and decision maker in any serviceorganization.xxiiSERVICE MANAGEMENT

1THE IMPORTANT ROLESERVICES PLAY IN ANECONOMY1.1 IntroductionThere has been a surge of interest in all aspects of service management in recent times. Manybooks, articles, and research papers on services and service management have appeared in popular and academic business literature starting in the 1980s and continue to be published today.The impetus for this phenomenon can be traced back to two major developments in recent history. First, the quality movement that started in the 1980s had brought most consumers, newsmedia, and academicians to the realization that the overall quality of services in the United Stateswas not ideal, acceptable, or competitive in the international markets. Second, the fact that services no longer formed the least important (tertiary) sector of the economy became obvious.Contrary to the once widely held view among economists, services in the second half of thetwentieth century had increasingly played a significant role in the economic life in the UnitedStates and in all industrialized countries.Growing attention paid to service qua
