Service Quality Model (or) GAP


model

The service quality model or the GAP model
developed by a group of authors- Parasuraman,
Zeithaml and Berry , highlights the main
requirements for delivering high service quality.

It identifies five gaps that cause unsuccessful
delivery. If the experience does not match the
expectation, there arises a gap.

GAP MODEL
Contd.
GAP1:

Gapbetweenconsumerexpectationand

This gap arises when the management does


not correctly perceive what the customers
want.
Contd.
GAP2:

Gapbetweenmanagementperceptionand

Here the management might correctly perceive


what the customer wants ,but may not set a
performance standard.
Contd.
GAP3:

This gap may arise owing to the service personnel.


The reasons being poor training, incapability or
unwillingness to meet the set service standard.

GAP4:

The gap arises when these assumed expectations


are not fulfilled at the time of delivery of the
service.

Ten determinants which may influence the


appearance of a gap were described by

Measuringservicequality:



Measuring service quality may involve both
subjective and objective processes. In both cases,
it is often some aspect of customer satisfaction
which is being assessed. However, customer
satisfaction is an indirect measure of service
quality.

Contd.

Measuringsubjectiveelementsofservice
quality
Subjective processes can be assessed in
characteristics and in problems assessed by
'Frequenz Relevanz Analyse' a German
term. The most important and most used
method with which to measure subjective
elements of service quality is the Servqual
method

Contd.
Measuring objective elements of service
quality

Objective processes may be subdivided into
primary processes and secondary processes.
The accurate measurement of an objective aspect
of customer service requires the use of carefully
predefined criteria.

bodies from countries large and small,
industrialized, developing and in transition, in all
regions of the world. ISOs portfolio of over 19
100* standards provides business, government
and society with practical tools for all three
dimensions of sustainable
development:economic, environmental and
social.

ISO standards provide solutions and achieve


benefits for almost all sectors of activity,
including agriculture, construction, mechanical
engineering, manufacturing, distribution,
transport, healthcare, information and
communication technologies, the environment,
energy, safety and security, quality management,
and services.

Contd.
ISO only develops standards for which there is a
clear market requirement.
An ISO International Standard represents a
global consensus on the state of the art in the
subject of that standard. . ISO International
Standards ensure that products and services are

system within an organization,

improvement.

requirements for an organization to follow, but

requirements any way they choose.

world, and its success is a testament to its worth.

and corrective actions tenets of ISO 9000 a
business will create processes that run smoothly
and efficiently.

How does ISO 9000 work?


ISO 9000 is set up as a collection of guidelines
that help a company establish, maintain, and
improve a quality management system
One important aspect of ISO 9000 is its process-
oriented approach. Instead of looking at a
companys departments and individual
processes, ISO 9000 requires that a company
look at the big picture
There are three main types of audits 1st, 2nd,
and 3rd party audits.
