By surveying clients of pharmacy organizations, we've analyzed quality of service. It was found that pharmaceu-tical specialists do not always inform pharmacy visitors about the regimen and doses of the drug (MP), the rules for storing it at home, and about interactions with other drugs; most buyers find it difficult to answer the question of what is the International Nonproprietary Name of a Medicinal Product (INN) and how synonyms and ana-logues differ from each other; visitors to pharmacies are not always provided with information about the availa-bility of medicinal products from different manufacturers and medicinal products with different prices; in most cas-es, if the secondary packaging is violated, the pharmacy customers are not given instructions (a copy of the in-structions) on the use of the dispensed drug. A standard operational procedure "Order of realization of medicines without a prescription" was developed on the basis of received data.

This research project, which was implemented in an organization whose primary function is providing service (Telecommunication company), studies the scope of the correlation between the quality of service from the customers point of view (customer survey) and the organization (Telecommunication company systems). The research is important both for economic and scientific reasons. It involves many organizational control units which require significant monetary investments. From a scientific point of view, the research is important because it can shed light on the asymmetrical point of view existing between customers and organizations. Organizations that are service providers place high importance on the quality of service and their image as perceived by their customers. Quality of service is measured through internal control processes and from there is passed on to the staff who are directly involved in customer service. In this study, we focus on a large organization which implements control processes and then provides service to customers. Therefore, the activities of this organization are judged first and foremost on the basis of the service quality provided. The existing internal control processes of the organization, which measure the standard of service provided on the basis of organizational benchmarks are separate from those that measure customer satisfaction. In this project, we analyze the correlation between the outlook of the customer and the results of internal control processes.

La hipótesis fue: Existe relación entre estilos de vida y la calidad de servicio de los clientes de la ACMSB.

La prueba de Pearson arroja 0.746 que significa que existe una relación de 74% entre calidad de servicio y estilos de vida de los clientes de la asociación de comerciantes agro artesanal del San Borja. El estilo de vida de los clientes de la ACMSB es el moderno; este resultado coincide con los hallazgos de Arellano [1] quien reporto que el estilo de vida moderno es el preponderante en nuestro país. El hallazgo encontrado por De Soto [2] que los recién llegados del campo a la ciudad, encontraron un muro impenetrable de reglas, que los marginaban de las actividades sociales y económicas legalmente establecidas, en los que era sumamente difícil entrar a negocios formales, se ha logrado superar; puesto que estas micro y pequeñas empresas son viables, legales y están siendo muy bien vistos por los clientes. Mayor argumento constituye el reporte estadístico del INEI [3], que informa que la actividad comercial tuvo un crecimiento del 10,96 % , esto es una tendencia positiva en la mayoría de sus rubros componentes, destacándose entre otros, la venta minorista de alimentos, a través de las cadenas de supermercados e hipermercados y grandes almacenes. Se concluye que las empresas del sector retail en especial de la ACMSB, están reinventando estrategias en torno a la satisfacción del cliente y son conscientes de la invasión de las grandes cadenas de supermercados e hipermercados y grandes almacenes. Esta investigación servirá como base para futuras estrategias a adoptar por los empresarios de la ACMSB, a fin de mantener a los clientes satisfechos, con alta calidad de servicio.

The finding found by De Soto [2] that the newcomers from the countryside to the city, found an impenetrable wall of rules, that marginalized social and economic activities legally established, in which it was extremely difficult to get into formal business was has been overcome, since these micro and small businesses are viable, legal, and are still very well regarded by customers.

Purpose This paper aims to describe relationships between constructs adapted to the pharmaceutical field with respect to the measurement of the supply chains strategic and operational performance in private pharmacies, relating it to the quality of service perceived by users. Design/methodology/approach Relationships among the indicated constructs were validated through the use of structural equation models. This study includes the use of questionnaires adapted and applied to suppliers (pharmaceutical chemists and supply staff), operational managers (pharmacy assistants) and users (patients and clients) who visit different segments of pharmacies, such as chain businesses and independents located in the region of Valparaíso, Chile. The sample collected information from 128 establishments and 601 people, through which different relationships between segments were compared. Findings A structural model was validated on the basis of statistical principles. Furthermore, positive relationships were observed in the constructs studied where pharmacy chains had a statistical significance of less than 5 per cent between the responsibility of the supply process and the experience of the users, whereas independent pharmacies had a very significant causal relationship between operational managers and users. Practical implications The proposal can help predict the quality of service perceived by the user based on the behavior of sales and supply staff, which may be similar in other markets with similar characteristics. Originality/value The structural model proposed is original and adapts measurement scales validated from previous studies to be able to apply them in the pharmaceutical retail market.
