Definitions • What are services? • Service enterprises?
Service Definitions Intangible goods? Services are deeds, processes, and performances. Valarie Zeithaml & Mary Jo Bitner A service is a time-perishable, intangible experience performed for a customer acting in the role of a co-producer. James Fitzsimmons Folks doing things for folks for Money Paul Magio
Definition of Service Firms Service enterprises are organizations that facilitate the production and distribution of goods, support other firms in meeting their goals, and add value to our personal lives. James Fitzsimmons
Services Science, Management and Engineering …the application of science, management, and engineering disciplines to tasks that one organization beneficially performs for and with another • (Wikipedia)

Discussion Topics • Describe the work that you do from a service perspective • Illustrate how the type of work you do influences a person’s lifestyle.
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) • Method for evaluating efficiency of similar venues/products • Incorporates inputs and outputs – not just one dimensional • Uses LINEAR PROGRAMMING (LP)
Sample LP: Product Mix Problem • How much beer and ale to produce from three scarce resources: • 480 pounds of corn • 160 ounces of hops • 1190 pounds of malt • A barrel of ale consumes 5 pounds of corn, 4 ounces of hops, 35 pounds of malt • A barrel of beer consumes 15 pounds of corn, 4 ounces of hops and 20 pounds of malt • Profits are $13 per barrel of ale, $23 for beer
Sample LP: Transportation Problem • A firm produces computers in Singapore and Hoboken. • Distribution Centers are in Oakland, Hong Kong and Istanbul • Supply, demand and costs summary:
Other LP examples • Blending problem • Diet problem • Assignment problem
Key terms of LP • Variables • Parameters • Objective function • Constraints
Standard Form(according to Hillier and Lieberman) Concise version: A is an m by n matrix: n variables, m constraints
