Abstract

Recently, it becomes important for container ports to gain competitiveness through service differentiation strategies. These strategies require an objective evaluation on consumer needs. For that reason, this study aims at developing the scale and measurement methods for service quality. Container shipping companies calling at Busan are targeted for the empirical analyses. The measurement items are presented for the services that they are provided from entry into a port to departure from a port. Exploratory factor analysis and validity analysis are done to derive a service quality scale from entry to departure. The result of regression analysis implies that the service quality scale is useful to increase customer satisfaction and to establish managerial strategies.

최근 컨테이너항만은 서비스 차별화 전략을 통한 경쟁력 확보의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 서비스 차별화 전략은 기본적으로 고객의 요구사항에 대한 객관적인 평가가 필요하다. 이를 위해서 서비스의 품질을 측정할 수 있는 척도 및 방법을 개발하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 부산항에 기항하는 주요 컨테이너 선사를 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. 이에 따라, 선사가 컨테이너항만에 입항하여 출항하기까지 제공되는 서비스에 관한 측정항목을 도출하였다. 조사자료를 기반으로 탐색적 요인분석, 신뢰성 분석, 타당성 분석 등 개발된 정제과정을 통해 평가척도를 제시한다. 제시된 평가척도는 고객만족 및 기항의도와 높은 관련성을 보여주고 있으며, 향후 경영전략 수립에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
