Abstract

The domestic tourism industry mostly relies on quantitative surveys for customer satisfaction. However, customer participation of the questionnaires is extremely low and the improvement of the dissatisfactory factors is not being performed promptly. In this paper, we propose a new topic map system and prove its empirical effectiveness to improve the accuracy of customer feedback information and the efficiency of the analysis process. The topic map system is a system for analyzing large amounts of customer feedback data in real time. It uses text mining and ontology techniques by integrating data collected over a certain period from real-time SNS and quantitative data obtained from existing survey systems. The effect after improving the analyzed factors of dissatisfaction is also a new and innovative evaluation system for monitoring customer satisfaction in real time. The classification based on this integrated data is a classification system that is specific to the product or the customer. According to this classification, it is possible to measure the effect of the recognition and improvement of the complaint factor in real time on the topic map system. This provides a sophisticated prioritization of the improvement factors and enables customer satisfaction quality control as a PDCA feedback system. In addition, the survey period and costs are greatly shortened, and responses can be more precise to the existing survey method. As a practical application, this system is applied to the largest H travel agency in Korea to prove the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed system.

국내 관광업계는 대부분의 고객 만족도를 정량적인 설문조사에 의존한다. 하지만 고객의 설문 참여도가 지극히 저조하고, 불만족 요인에 대한 개선이 신속히 이루어지고 있지 못하고 있는 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 고객 피드백 정보의 정확성과 분석 과정의 효율성을 높이기 위해 새로운 토픽맵 시스템을 제안하고, 그 실증적 효과성을 입증한다. 토픽맵 시스템은 기존의 설문시스템에서 획득한 일정기간의 정량자료와 실시간 SNS를 통해 수집된 정성적 자료를 텍스트 마이닝 및 온톨로지 기법을 활용하여 대량의 고객 피드백 자료를 분석하는 시스템으로써, 분석된 불만요인에 대하여 토픽맵 시스템으로 실시간 개선점을 제공하고 그 이후의 효과 또한 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있는 고객만족도 평가 방식 시스템이라 할 수 있다. 이로써 개선요소의 정교한 우선순위를 제공하고, PDCA 환류시스템으로서의 품질관리가 가능해진다. 또한 조사기간 및 비용이 대폭 단축되고, 기존 방식에 비해 훨씬 정확한 대응이 가능하게 되어 진다. 실제 적용사례로써 국내 최대 규모의 H여행사에 적용하여 제안 시스템의 정확성과 효율성을 입증한다.
