The objectives of the research are researched from the main objective. They are as follows;
Execution is the major factor for the following research which is based on the finding of new technologies that can support the service levels as demanded by the different customers of the business. The very basic yet the most important remembrance to be considered each and every time is that as a responsible and reputed company it is the duty of the management of Myer to ensure that they never disappoint the customers and execute their demands in the most smart and efficient manner (Pakurár et al. 2019). The four major practices that needs to be implemented are as follows;
Department Stores of Australia
According to Ibis world, the definition of department stores is that they retail clothing, soft goods, housewares, cosmetics, and furniture and household appliances. The goods in the departmental stores are normally sold through the use of the separate departments that are present inside the store (Abidin 2015). The departmental stores in other words can also be defined as the large scale business houses which purchases products and goods from the third party wholesalers and retailers of the business and resells them to the consumers of the products without making any kind of changes to the composition, labelling or packaging of the products (Al-Tit 2015). The departmental stores are generally famous for the different types of business activities that are undertaken by them. This includes the likes of the customer service, promotional campaigns, advertisement campaigns, inventory handling, cash handling and many more as such.
There are a large number of different kinds of departmental stores in Australia. This includes the likes of David jones, BigW and Kmart. All these departmental stores are unique in their own nature and are involved in the sales of a large number of different products and services accordingly (Erlandsson Fjeld and Lidestav 2017). The presence of a large number of departmental stores has been the part and parcel of globalization and has naturally increased the competition. This is why the new sets of the technologies needs to be arranged and implemented in the organizations in order to gain a healthy supremacy and stay competitive in the business market. According to, Erlandsson Fjeld and Lidestav (2017) this increases the importance of technological development for departmental stores like that of Myer in Australia.
The consumers across the world nowadays are becoming gradually more and more used to new and improved technologies and thus they have been trying and opting out new and different things that can be helpful for them (Fragoso and Espinoza 2017). The organizations similarly has to implement such kind of business tactics that are able to address the issues of the organization in the simplest manner. In the business world, the traditional retailers of the business has been facing potent challenges as there has been an increase in the competition from all parts of the area in an organized manner (Gera Mittal Batra and Prasad 2017). Australia has been no exception to the present situation of the market as the Australian departmental stores has been facing the same issues to keep up properly with the demands of the customers which have been changing each and every time.
The customers in Australia has been following the footsteps of the global population and have a varied range of choices and demands that needs to be fulfilled in the most promising manner to ensure business success. There has been constant demand for furniture and household items produced by IKEA as it is able to influence the mind of the customers by providing them a large range of different options (Izogo and Ogba 2015). There has also been a large demand for electrical goods, clothing and fashion accessories since the start of the e-commerce business. According to, Soni (2017) the positive picture of the Australian Departmental and retail business market presents the ideal picture and scope for the management of Myer to gain success in the near future.
According to, Soni (2017) Customer Service is one of the most important elements of the modern day business organizations. It cannot be and must not be denied that customer service forms a major task of all the industries starting from large to small and small to medium. The business organization that will prove itself to be capable of being responsible to the questions and demands of the customers are believed to be the most successful and can also achieve the largest success in the modern day business world (Jiang and Zhang 2016). The presence of different business houses providing different kinds of business services and substitutes of same products, the time has become quite tough for the companies to prosper properly in the business market. It is important for thee business organizations to gain a reputation of delivering the best services (myer.com.au 2019). The presence of such a reputation can help the business organization to gain a healthy market share and easily challenge the other similar industries through its hard eared business reputation of delivering the best business services (Jiang and Zhang 2016). The customer service can be achieved through the presence of a superior technological capability which generally defines the success rate of the business organization. The better the technology, the better will be customer service of the business organization.
Quality of service can be set to be as a comprehensive customer evaluation of a particular service and the extent by which it is capable of meeting the Expectations and providing the different customer satisfaction in the business (Kasiri et al. 2017). The Rapid growth of the Departmental Stores Australia has created a competitive environment and has provided new thinking and development for the stores to understand the demands and choices of customer in a much better manner and provide the Quality Services to attract them and also to retain them. According to, Kasiri et al. (2017) the departmental stores has increased their focus towards the service quality and has optimised their resources especially the human resources with great efforts to reach the high level of service quality in order to make their clients satisfy. The quality of the service that can be said to be the capability of the companies to deliver the best products and services according to the needs of the customers an examination of all these definitions and perspectives has found out three different factors of themes that helps to gain perfection in service quality presentation this includes,
Service quality is much more important to determine than goods quality
The evaluations from quality are not made merely out of the results or the quality of the service rather they are made from the evaluation of the process of service delivery
Service quality perceptions result from the conception of consumer expectations with greater service performance
Service quality under the implementation of technology is safe to revolve around the customer expectation and the perceptions of the service makes all the different ways to be performed all by the management of the business organisations (Kaura Durga Prasad and Sharma 2015).
Service quality is a broad concept which is very important in business and marketing. The service sector is one of the most dynamic sector in the advanced economies and is a lifeline for the country in the modern globalised and fastest growing economic sector. The companies with more Global output and more human resources than any other sector are unable to deliver the best services to their customers (myer.com.au 2019). The service which is intangible in nature helps to develop a better understanding and also presents strong reputation for the organisation in the business market. The presence of a good reputation and intangible nature of service helps to achieve customer satisfaction as well as profit in the market (Kaura Durga Prasad and Sharma 2015). On the other hand, service quality is a particular concept that has been a modern trend in the business world. The service quality concept has been achieved with great interest and different kinds of debates in the research literature it can be said to be the difference between the Expectations of the customers regarding a particular product or service that is to be received and the actual perception of the product or service that has been received (Kiran and Diljit 2017). Service quality helps to change the extent to which the customer needs and Expectations are met. On the other hand, service quality in an organization has become progressively more important in order to generate sustained and strong competitive advantage in the market.
The Expectations on the other hand of the needs of the consumers which help them to overcome different challenges are important in nature (Turay et al. 2017). Perception refers to the valuation of the service provider who are able to address the different needs for the service in two different ways. The first one is the technical quality and the second one is the functional quality. The perceived business service consider and compare these two aspects to provide the best service quality (Lien Cao and Zhou 2017). The service quality perception of the customers are always different as because the customers tend to seem different kinds of products and services that may be beyond the capability of the organisations to produce and deliver to the customers . However the better the management of the company will try to perceive the demands of them customers they will be able to address the different issues in a much better and simpler manner (Lien Cao and Zhou 2017). Therefore it can be said that the service quality expectations for the perception of the customers are always different from the actual service quality that are provided to the customers.
The service quality in Australia has been one of the most important and elementary business organizations of the market (Turay et al. 2017). The industry has faced a large number of intensifying competitions from the online business stores and the specialty retailers over the past few years. The departmental stores of Australia has been important for the organization in a structured and efficient manner (Lien Cao and Zhou 2017). The service quality in Australia can be defined through a different types of business standards that includes;
Business quality
Business organization of the Australia
Service quality standards of the business organization
The proposition for Myer depends on the presentation of a better service quality that can help to improve the business standards of the organization. The better the quality of the departmental store, the better the management of Myer can challenge the likes of the different kinds of the organizational elements (myer.com.au 2019). This includes the likes of the inclusion of modern business technologies that can help them to ensure business success.
