As for customer contracts, many service operations have little outside customer contracts. Such as the backroom operations of a bank or the baggage handling area at an airport.
Strategic Decision: Manufacturers do not just offer products, and service organization does not just offer services. Both types of organizations normally provide a package of goods and services. Customers except both good service and good food at a restaurant and both good service and quality goods from a retailer. Manufacturing firms offer many customer services, and a decreasing proportion of the value added by them directly involves the transformation of materials.
Process: Even though service providers cannot inventory their outputs, they must inventory the inputs for their products. These inputs must undergo further transformations during the provision of the service.
Quality: As for customer contact, many service operations have little outside customer contacts, such as the backroom operation of a bank or the baggage handling area at an airport. However, everyone in an organization has some customers outside customers or inside customers whether in services or manufacturing.
