Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is defined as a method that supports the structured design of products or services. The method is based on the customer needs and involves all the relevant parties within an organization that develops and produces a product through teamwork. It is a method for mapping and prioritizing customer requirements into functional features and technical modules to optimize market performance. Although the quality of a service can be dramatically improved through a QFD exercise, the traditional crisp scoring approach has a major drawback. A wrong conclusion can be easily produced since the fuzzy nature of linguistic correlation terms from evaluation members is ignored. To overcome this problem, fuzzy scoring for linguistic terms is proposed in this paper. This study integrates fuzzy logic into House Of Quality to establish a framework for prioritizing customer requirements to simply, objectively, and scientifically analyze service features.

This study aims to determine the quality, the importance of service attributes and the appropriate effort to improve the quality of public services provided by the Client Coordinator at the Direktorat Jenderal Bea dan Cukai. This study uses SERVQUAL questionnaire, Kano Model and Quality Function Deployment. SERVQUAL questionnaire is used to assess customer satisfaction (quality of service) by comparing customer expectations and the actual quality of service received by the customer. KANO model is used to determine which service attributes are important based on the perception of the customer. Moreover, the important service attributes identified by customer is analyzed in the house of quality (Quality Function Deployment method) to determine appropriate effort by government. A blend of these methods can be replicated in other efforts to improve public services so that the improvement will match with the needs of customers (community).
