한국과학기술정보연구원(이하 KISTI)은 지난 6년 간 전사적으로 품질제고전략, 서비스만족전략, 이미지제고전략 등 3대 고객만족추진전략을 수립하여 체계적인 고객만족경영시스템을 구축하고 이를 강화하기 위한 노력을 기울여 왔다. KISTI는 고객을 대상으로 서비스하는 부분을 크게 5개 업무유형 11 세부 서비스로 구분하여 있다. 각 업무유형별로 산업계, 학계, 연구계, 관계 등 핵심 고객군을 세부적으로 설정하고, 각각의 업무 프로세스 및 서비스 청사진을 표준화하여 이행표준체계를 수립하였다. 국가 과학기술 연구망 업무를 수행하는 담당자별로 실명제를 통한 책임경영을 하고 핵심 고객의 니즈를 반영하기 위한 심층 FGI(Focus Group Interview) 및 DI(Depth Interview)를 진행하였다. 또한 정기적인 고객 Needs 및 VOC 문제점을 파악하기 위한 워크숍을 개최하여 활발한 개선활동을 진행하였다. 향후 연구로는 체계적인 정보서비스의 향상을 위해서는 일부 직원이 아닌 내부 직원 구성원이 모두 고객 지향적 마인드 형성을 해야 한다. 단순한 친절과 고객 편의 제공이 아닌, 전문성을 중심으로 서비스의 질적 수준을 향상 시켜야 한다는 "프로의식"이 내부 구성원들 사이에 확산되어야 진정한 고객중심의 경영이 이루어 질수 있다고 본다.
