Opis

The growth of new innovative technologies in service delivery and increasing labor costs make service providers to think about new service delivery options which allow consumers to serve themselves as an alternative way. These new services potentially offer consumers round-the-clock access to services, including during emergencies. These kinds of new services are known as Technology-Based Self-service delivery(TBSS). TBSS delivery is classified into two category of services which are on-site (at firms site) and off-site service (at customers home/place); also the customers interaction with the technology can be either direct or indirect. This book will focus on the on-site TBSS with direct interaction between the customer and technology. The book attempts to investigate and analyze the factors that influence intention to adopt technology-based self service from the consumers point of view.
