The purpose of this study was to substantially analyze the relation between the success factors of quality management and performance. For this purpose, the success factors of quality management - CEO's leadership, customer-centeredness, process management, training, full participation of employees, and relationship with vendors - were identified as independent variables and performance was identified as dependent variable to substantially analyze the automotive parts industry. In result, the findings can be summarized into the following: First, for the relation between the success factors of quality management and financial performance, CEO's leadership, customer-centeredness, training, and full participation of employees were statistically significant, but process management and relationship with vendors were not statistically significant. Second, for the relation between the success factors of quality management and non-financial performance, CEO's leadership, customer-centeredness, full participation of employees, and relationship with vendors were statistically significant, but process management and training were not statistically significant. Third, it was also found that, among the success factors of quality management, CEO's leadership, customer-centeredness, full participation of employee should be considered more than any other variables to achieve performance. Based on the above findings, it was concluded that 'CEO's leadership' and 'customer-centeredness' had an influence on both financial and non-financial performances and were relatively more influential than other individual factors.

정보통신 기술의 발달과 전자상거래의 도래로 기업가치의 중심이 점차 고객으로 이동함에 따라 고객 관련 정보의 체계적인 통합 관리를 위한 CRM(Customer Relationship Management)의 구축이 급속도로 진행되고 있다. 특히 고객과의 접점 채널을 중심으로 e-CRM(Electronic-Customer Relationship Management) m-CRM(Mobile-Customer Relationship Management)과 같은 다양한 방법론이 제기되고있지만 고객과의 접근 방식 자체를 세부적으로 분석하고 최소화할 수 있는 방법의 제안은 현실적으로 부족하다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 고객 접점 방법을 간소화시킬 수 있는 방법으로e-CARM(Electronic-Customer Approach Relationship Management)을 제안하였다. 또한 인중 메커니즘을 통한 e-CARM의 모델을 제시함으로써 제안된 방법론이 가질 수 있는 유용성을 보여 주었다.

In this paper, the e-grocery sector of the U.S. is used as an illustrative example of how to assess consumers' demands for customer relationship management and to investigate whether these demands coincide with effective Customer Relationship Management (CRM) strategies suggested by academic researchers and provided by practitioners. Surveys evaluating the perceived importance of CRM items were administered accordingly. The findings show that, overall, consumers' did not differ considerably to the experts. The results of descriptive analyses showed that academicians had a more closely in-lined view with consumers than did practitioners. Although not statistically significant, practitioners perceived loyalty programs to be more important than did consumers or academicians. This might suggest that loyalty programs are primarily serving as a way of data mining, and are thus failing to provide benefits to consumers. Overall, items related to technology deployment were perceived to be more important by practitioners than consumers or academicians.

As customer relationship management (CRM) has been increasingly adopted by corporations as a core business strategy, measuring performance of CRM is becoming an important managerial issue recently. In this study, we present a conceptual framework formeasuring CRM performance, and provide strategic priorities among the diagnostic perspectives and factors involved in the framework by analyzing their comparative weights. We first derived critical success factors of CRM from an extensive literature review and in-depth interviews with industrial and academic CRM experts, and categorized them into one of four different diagnostic perspectives. Then, we asked a group of CRM experts to evaluate each set of diagnostic factors in a pairwise fashion with respect to each perspective, computing their comparative weights by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique. In terms of diagnostic perspectives, this study shows that customer perspective was the most critical perspective, whereas infrastructure was the least weighted perspective. The result also discloses that explicit goal and top management's attitude, expanding customer relationship, strengthening customer loyalty, and enhancing customer equity are the most important factors in infrastructure, CRM process, customer, and organizational performance perspective, respectively.

Sales force automation (SFA) technologies are increasingly used to support customer relationship management (CRM) strategies. However, the popular press reports mixed results among companies incorporating SFA technologies and the previous studies have less interested in relationship quality between sales person and customer as an outcome of SFA. Actually the improved quality of the salesperson-customer relationship may be the most important outcome of SFA usage. This outcome is especially meaningful in today's marketplace given the increasing focus placed on customer retention and other customer related performance such as customer lifetime value. Therefore, this study seeks to further examine the impact of SFA usage within two different firms using SFA technologies to examine the impact of SFA usage on both customer relationship quality and sales performance. Additionally, the moderating roles of perceived managerial support and salesperson experience on the outcomes of SFA usage are examined. The results shows that direct effect of SFA usage on performance was not significant but highlight the mediating role of customer relationship quality in the SFA usage - sales performance relationship. Also, this research examines a number of moderating effects of both management supports for SFA and salesperson's sales work experience. The results indicate that management support has a significant direct influence on relationship quality and salesperson performance, but not a significant moderating effect on the relationship between SFA usage and the outcomes (relationship quality and performance). Thus moderating effects were not supported but find significant main effects. First of all, finding of this study suggest that a formula for successful SFA implementation must be one that highlights a SFA usage → relationship quality → sales performance sequence. This means when sales person use SFA they must build relationship with customer first then will return some long term performance. Second, the implications of not considering the introduction of big technology initiatives in terms of fit within the company's culture, strategy, structure, and environment may in many cases be quite noteworthy. Therefore, the launching of a new technology in the firm, such as SFA, may have a nonlinear impact upon overall firm performance, depending on the presence of other complimentary resources and capabilities. Finally the authors offer a number of implications for research and practice, and suggest directions for future SFA research that may further improve our understanding of this increasingly relevant topic.
