“…QFD has been used in the food industry since 1987, i.e., its use is recent (Costa et al, 2001). But only after the 90's is that the articles were published showing the benefits of using the method in food products (Benner et al, 2003).…”

“…Only a few articles claimed that QFD is a proper and probable method to ease the restaurant product development process. Thus, the applications of QFD have a much more possibility of development and application (Costa, Dekker, & Jongen, 2000). Hence, this study shall be utilized as an exemplar on actual industry in Taiwan.…”

Economic development is always one of the most crucial issues being discussed in the world, which various industries are directly involved such as: agriculture, commerce, and recently the so-called Hi-Technology (Information Technology). With the notion that industry competition could brought about developments, such as improved product, cost cutting, and shortening of the time to market. Companies are continuously looking into what strategies that is beneficial and less risky. In Taiwan, the current economic situations have caused people to exert even more time and effort in earning money. Such phenomenon sparks the high frequency of eating out (or dining out). In addition, the current low birthrate situation in Taiwan, people tends to spend more money on leisure and less time at home. Hence, the restaurant industry has become quite demanding. The current study shall utilize the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) method and the matrix House of Quality (HOQ), to evaluate and analyze the trade-off decisions between service quality and customer satisfaction in Taiwan's restaurant industry. Recommendations and implications are then given to aid future researchers on similar areas of studies.

“…This methodology may function as a design guideline and thus as a testing criterion for evaluation at this stage. However, as long as there is no experience with QFD in a sufficiently wide range of different design areas, application of it is certainly not a trivial exercise (Costa et al, 2001).…”

Abstract. Design has been recognized for a long time both as art and as science. In the sixties of the previous century design-oriented research began to draw the attention of scientific researchers and methodologists, not only in technical engineering but also in the social sciences. However, a rather limited methodology for design-oriented research has been developed, especially as to the social sciences. In this article we introduce evaluation methodology and research methodology as a systematic input in the process of designing. A designing cycle is formulated with six stages, and for each of these stages operations, guidelines and criteria for evaluation are defined. All this may be used for a considerable improvement of the process and product of designing.
