چکیده

abstract


Customer value is an important factor to evaluate the competitive strength for an international express service provider. It is also a key criterion to choose an express service. Hence, the main purpose of this paper was to develop a fuzzy multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) model to assess the customer value for three express service providers in Taiwan based on the shippers’ perspective. Firstly we employed some concepts of fuzzy set theory to develop a fuzzy MCDM model. Subsequently, a hierarchical structure was constructed with four criteria, twenty sub-criteria and three alternatives (i.e. UPS, FedEx and DHL). Then, this paper conducts an empirical study by means of a survey from the viewpoints of shippers in Taiwan. Finally, the results of this study showed that: (1) the ‘time’ aspect is the most important criterion affecting the customer service based on the viewpoints of exporters and importers in Taiwan; (2) the top six key factors affecting customer value for express service providers are ‘land time between house and airport at both ends,’ ‘administrative processing time,’ ‘pick-up and haul time in warehouse,’ ‘level of accuracy,’ ‘level of safety,’ and ‘rapid turnover,’ respectively; (3) FedEx offers the best customer value in Taiwan based on the proposed fuzzy MCDM model. Furthermore, some discussions are provided for express service companies. The main contribution of this paper is to provide a practical survey for business application on customer value of express service providers.

6. Conclusions


In the international air cargo transportation market, customer value provided by international express service providers has become an important factor when shippers choose an express service. Customer value is also very important for an international express service provider to maintain customer loyalty and competitive advantages. The main purpose of this paper was to develop a fuzzy MCDM model to empirically evaluate the customer value for three express service providers in Taiwan. The chief contribution of this study is its analysis of the customer value provided by the three major international express firms from the perspective of Taiwan’s importers and exporters. Operating models and customer value criteria drafted on the basis of this study’s findings can shed light on the criteria that customers emphasize or are satisfied with. This will allow the determination of which express firm offers the greatest customer value, and allow customers to select the best company. The findings of this study are therefore provided to importers and exporters in Taiwan as a reference when choosing air express firms. Finally, some important results of this study show that: (1) The ‘time’ aspect is the most important criterion affecting the customer service based on the viewpoints of exporters and importers in Taiwan.
