Kano(1984) distinguishes five types of Quality requirement which influence customer satisfaction; Attractive, One-dimensional, Must-be, Indifferent, Reverse Quality element. Attractive requirements lead more than proportional satisfaction. Attractive Quality requirements are the key factors of order winner and the sources of customer delight. Attractive requirements do not influence customer satisfaction equally. This study presents Kano's model using AHP(Analysis Hierarchy Process) for the priorities of attractive Quality requirements.

Most of the GRI's that are organized and operate a regional. However, the limitations of the building that faces its own innovation system of the area, difficulties in management of the individual institution and community organizations operating in various industries such as inadequate to meet demand. This study examined the quality attributes of the GRI's regional organization's operations and policy improvements on the GRI's key features and regional organizations in the region to suggest future operating efficiency in the consumer's point of view based on the Kano Model and Timko Model. The results showed the different properties depending on the quality of corporate premises, and whether or not its own R&D organization. These results could be used as a basis for future policy design in accordance with GRI's regional organization establishment, operation and evaluation.

Determining relative importance among many quality attributes under financial constraints is an important task. The weighted value of an attribute particularly in QFD, will influence on engineering characteristics and this will eventually influence the whole manufacturing process such as parts deployment, process planning, and production planning. Several scholars have suggested weighting formulas using CSC (Customer Satisfaction Coefficient) in the Kano model. However, previous research shows that the validity of the CSC approaches has not been proved systematically. The aim of the present study is to address drawbacks of CSC and to develop APC (Average Potential Coefficient), a new approach for weighting of quality attributes. For this, the current study investigated 33 quality attributes of e-learning and conducted a survey of 375 university students for the results of APC, the Kano model, and the direct importance of the quality attributes. The results show that the proposed APC is better than other approaches based on the correlation analysis with the results of direct importance. An analysis of e-leaning's quality perceptions using the Kano model and suggestions for improving e-learning's service quality are also included in this study.

In this paper, we try to find success factor to satisfy Female Customer of a Family Restaurant We survey Female Customers Requirement and make a Questionnaire based on Female Customer by interview and internet Homepage. We find Potential customer satisfying factor by using Kano Analysis and Timko's CS coefficient and Potential Customer Satisfactionv improvement Index(PCSI) which is suggested by Leem represents how much a service feature can increase the degree of customer satisfaction when the service feature is fully fulfilled. We also discuss how to use this result, we hope our result to apply customer satisfying many fields not only Family Restaurant.

VE is used as a powerful tool to add value to facilities by improving functionality and reducing costs. By identifying the client's requirements in the VE process and reflecting them in the quality model, the developed alternatives meet the client's requirements. However, there is no process to verify how the developed alternatives reflect the needs of the client through functional analysis, idea generation and evaluation. The purpose of this study was to develop, verify, and prove the effectiveness of a methodology for evaluating client satisfaction with alternatives developed during the VE Job Plan. The KANO model, which can identify the satisfaction and dissatisfaction of requirements in product planning, was set as a methodology for alternative verification procedures of VE, and was improved and applied to the purpose of this study. As a result, the alternative evaluation method developed in this study was found to be useful. It is expected that the KANO model will be used to evaluate the satisfaction of VE alternatives in the VE Job Plan analysis.

The definition of quality continues to evolve. In recent years, there has been growing interest in how to satisfy customers' potential needs with an emphasis on customer-oriented quality. Two-dimensional quality proposed by Kano provides a useful framework for discovering quality attributes critical to customer satisfaction and it is widely employed for product and service development. In Kano model, quality attributes are classified into attractive, one-dimensional, must-be, indifferent, and reverse ones. Finding attractive elements among them is important for achieving customer satisfaction effectively. However, Kano's classification method has limitations in dealing with customers' ambiguous and complex ideas. The customer response itself includes uncertainty and incompleteness. To overcome this problem, fuzzy methods are incorporated with Kano's classification in this paper. According to numerical comparisons, it is shown that the fuzzy Kano method is useful for accommodating various response of customer and is helpful to identify potential needs.

I suggest a new method to determine the importance values of quality attributes which use the satisfaction index and dissatisfaction index of customer in Kano's model. A case study of TV set are solved by the proposed method and the result is compared with AHP pairwise comparisons and ASC(Average Satisfaction Coefficient). The results of the proposed method is similar with those of AHP pairwise comparisons and ASC. The proposed method is an effective tool to determine the importance values of quality attributes to supplement existing research's shortcomings.

The purpose of this study is to develop a method to improve the quality of engineering education by using Kano's dualistic quality model and Timko's customer satisfaction coefficient. The results of the study are as follows. Firstly, the top priority for major education is improve 'smooth support of class medium' as an attractive and one-dimensional quality element, and 'use of various examples' and 'specialty improvement of major curriculum' as an one-dimensional quality element. Secondly, the top priority for general education is improve 'liberal education curriculum' as an attractive quality element 'use of various examples' as an one-dimensional quality element. Thirdly, the top priority for extra-curriculum is develop and provide 'study support program of student' and 'voluntary service'. Fourthly, the top priority for administrative service and facilities is improve 'increase of scholarship' and expand 'service of welfare facilities as dormitory and refectory' as an one-dimensional quality element.

The House of Quality(HOQ) is used in the development stage to identify important customer attributes and corresponding engineering characteristics. The importance of each customer attribute obtained in the HOQ affects to the quality of the final product or service. Traditionally, such importance is derived based on the assumption that customer satisfaction is linearly proportional to the product performance. In this paper, we propose a nonlinear function so as to relate the product performance with the customer satisfaction according to the Kano model. A performance goal is obtained by maximizing the total customer satisfaction under a cost constraint and the importance of each customer attribute is developed from the performance goal. Therefore, the proposed approach incorporates the Kano categories and the improvement cost in determining the importance of customer attributes.

Many university libraries, facing financial difficulties, have been forced to operate on a tighter budget. Such trend has created the need for an objective standard that will prioritize current library services. This study derives service quality factor via open coding from internet postings posted in the last five years on the Korean National Open University's library website, and also calculates the customer satisfaction quotient and dissatisfaction quotient using the Kano Model and Timko's Customer Satisfaction Coefficient. The result draws 25 service quality factors across 3 categories consisting of: (i) 8 attractive qualities, (ii) 15 one-dimensional qualities and (iii) 2 reverse qualities. The study, through the calculation of Timko's Customer Satisfaction Coefficient per service quality, proposes an intensive service that can prioritize the efficient use of library budget.
