Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to find out how marketing and operations integrate to provide high-quality fast food delivery service. Based on survey data for three different restaurants that offer a telephone ordering service, we analyze the degree and strength of integration between marketing and operations and the relationship with customer behavioral intention. The results show that telephone customer care quality has a direct relationship with product quality and service quality. Both product and service quality have a significant relationship with consumer behavioral intention. We develop a model that integrates marketing and operations with accessibility and consumer attitudes to telephone ordering as moderator variables. Finally, the study suggests that each sample restaurant has a different operational strategy and needs to focus on different business factors.
