Proposed Design of Service Quality Performance Management System for Indonesian HSR

/in /by

In some countries, the development of High-Speed Railway (HSR) represents a significant technological advancement which helps modern society’s value of time and various activities. Despite of having complex operational support and significant financial outlays, studies have shown that HSR sector has several growth barriers due to poor punctuality, reliability, pricing, and inconvenient passenger journeys. These brought specific impact on deciding factors whether or not passengers choose the transport option as it affected passenger satisfaction level. Recognizing the global challenge, this paper anticipates the impending Indonesian HSR operation by observing passengers’ relevant service quality attributes. The findings served as the performance management design’s foundation. In order to assist HSR operators to improve passenger experience and satisfaction, this study aims to identify the relevant service quality of Indonesian HSR potential passengers as one of many solutions to eliminate lack of demand problem. Qualitative and quantitative data analysis from in-depth interviews with several Indonesian railway expert and information from prior publication of Asian HSR which was used to carry out external benchmarking, validate results, support design process, and create contextual performance indicators for attributes using Knowledge-Based Performance Management System (KBPMS). This paper produced numbers of service quality performance indicators whose prioritization was arranged in specific order. Five variables are used to measure tangibility attributes’ performance, whereas six variables are used to measure reliability attributes’ performance. Tangibility and reliability were chosen based on Indonesian railway market preference and common success factor of HSR best practices. This performance indicators were specifically developed based on these attributes’ sub-attributes which has been contextualized. In contrast to other countries, Indonesian HSR place a distinctive value on physical facilities as it affects travelling motivation. These new insights would direct Indonesian HSR operators to develop targeted solutions to increase passenger satisfaction and economic benefits.

As the market competition for ICT products and services for businesses continues to increase, ICT B2B companies are expected to improve their performance in order to win market share. Design and implementation of Performance Management Systems (PMS) are essential components of management control systems for providing the best business solutions. This research proposes a modification of the Malcolm Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence (MBCfPE) and Knowledge-Based Performance Management System (KBPMS) frameworks for ICT B2B, given that MBCfPE is utilized for assessing performance excellence in SOEs. The design of the framework incorporates three perspectives: organizational results, internal process, and resource capabilities. According to the research, there are a total of x performance indicators. Using correlation analysis of historical performance indicators to determine the relationship between indicators. The weighting of the performance indicators is based on the scoring reference from MBCfPE. Therefore, the modification of KBPMS design with MBCfPE-based scoring provides an excellent depiction of the performance of B2B ICT at Indonesian SOEs.
