Extract

Properties of “traditional service systems” are compared with properties that might be expected to produce “consumer-orientated” services. Identification of necessary goals and processes to change traditional services to consumer-orientated services is a complex activity. Blueprints for individual systems are not offered; however, an attempt has been made to identify general guidelines which may be of use to practitioners who wish to initiate change.
