I. INTRODUCTION
Cooperative is a business entity which consisting of a person or legal entity cooperatives, with its activities are
based on the principle of cooperation as well as people's economic movement based on the principle of kinship.
Cooperative is the only economic actors which is suitable with the Indonesian economy. As stated and described
in the 1945 constitution, section 33, subsection 1, only cooperative which its business units are arranged
together on kinship principles. Therefore, cooperative is expected to participate in the economic development,
so it may be headed toward a popular economic movement and independent.
Cooperative as society economic movement has a big role for Indonesia in an effort to improve the welfare of
the community. The constitution No. 25 year 1992 section 3 regarding cooperatives mentioned that "cooperative
aims to promote the member’s welfare in particular and society in general, and to help build a national economic
arrangement in order to realize an advanced society, fair and prosperous society based on Pancasila and the
1945 Constitution".
For the member’s welfare in particular and society in general can be realized that cooperative with managing its
business unit that owned by the cooperative. Meanwhile, to increase the positive response in the society, the
cooperative must be able to give satisfaction to members or customers.
Satisfaction can be defined as the level of feelings of someone who comes from a comparison between the
impression of a product performance (or outcome) of a product and expectations. The satisfaction that felt by
the members is closely associated with the quality of services which provided by cooperatives. In order to
compete, survive, and develop cooperative is required to provide a great quality services to meet the needs and
desires of members.
Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, And Tangible: Still Can Satisfy The Customer?

But today, the cooperative is being underestimate by people because of its products and services that offered by
the cooperative is still below than in other business entities. In terms of employee services, banks / other
business entities which are on average have an attractive appearance, with a nice makeup and clothing, also
polite speech which is very friendly and courteous. It is very contrast to the simple-employees cooperative, with
makeup and clothing that is simple as well and less friendly service. Also in terms of lending / loans granted by
the cooperative has a very high interest rate. According to Deputy Chairman of Kadin Indonesia Sector SMEs
and cooperatives Uno (2010) mentioned that the current lending rates are still high in the range of 20-22%. This
will affect the competitiveness between cooperatives with Bank / other business entities. BI recorded by
November 2010, the interest rate of working capital loans in the national banking average is 12.96%. The
average investment credit amounted to 12.35%. The consumer loan interest rate averaged is 14.35%. Thus we
can conclude that the lending cooperative bigger than bank credit. With that phenomenon, causing the members
prefer bank / other business entities than cooperative.
Indicators of cooperative member’s dissatisfaction can be seen from inactivity members. The customers of
cooperative service that actually are people outside who are not members of the cooperative. It doesn’t mean
that the cooperative should not provide services to nonmembers, because the cooperative was able to serve a
nonmember as long as it does not damage its own members and is intended to attract non-members become
members of the cooperative.
Products and services that do not meet quality member very easily abandoned and eventually they turn to banks
/ other business entities. To anticipate this matter, the cooperative must prioritize the service which oriented on
member’s satisfaction.
While the needs are a condition of a person to have something that he does not have and something that is
mandatory for him. Based on the explanation above, the key to provide satisfaction to the members are trying to
find out in advance what is needed and wanted by the members. It because of mostly business units that owned
by Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province, Surabaya is a business unit which
run in the services sector, the Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province should
be more concerned about the quality of services which provided to members. The achievement of member’s
satisfaction will provide feedback to the Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java
Province. Besides, the member’s satisfaction is a form of effort from Bulog Division Residence Employees
Cooperative in East Java Province in providing a great quality services.

administrator members of the Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in Surabaya East Java
Province, the necessary evaluation of the services that they have rendered the Bulog Division Residence
Employees Cooperative in East Java Province for over these years. It is useful to improve the quality of service
from time to time.
Development of service quality is meant as a response to member satisfaction. The quality of service itself is
determined by five factors, there are: Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, and Tangible.
Based on the background above, the issues to be addressed in this research are (1) the effect of jointly between
Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, and Tangible to the member’s satisfaction of the Bulog
Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province? (2) Which services variable are a major
influence on the member’s satisfaction of the Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java

II. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1. Consumer Satisfaction
Nasution also defines the simple satisfaction, it is a situation where the needs, wants, and expectations of
customers are met through consumed products (Nasution, 2010).
While Kotler also defines satisfaction associated with consumer expectations, the satisfaction is feeling happy or
disappointed someone who emerged after comparing the performance (yield) of products thought to the
performance (or outcome) that expected (Kotler, 2012).
Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, And Tangible: Still Can Satisfy The Customer?
www.ijbmi.org 70 | Page
From the explanation above, it can be concluded that the sense of satisfaction is feeling happy that someone
obtained after consuming a product or service which provided by a company or cooperative.
2.2 Dimensions of Quality of Service
Quality of service is an abstract form, It is needed dimensions that can be used as a measuring tool. According
to Berry, there are five determinants of quality which are presented sequentially based on its importance
according to the customer, there are (1) Reliability: the ability to perform the services which is promised with
reliable and accurate (Value 32), (2) Responsiveness: willingness to help customers and provide services
quickly (Value 22), (3) assurance: knowledge and courtesy of employees and their ability to generate trust and
confidence (Value 19), (4) Empathy: a willingness to care, providing personal attention to customers (Value 16),
( 5) Tangible material: the appearance of physical facilities, equipment, personnel, and communication materials
(Value 11). (Nasution 2010)
Besides, Kotler also formulated five determinants of quality of service which presented according to its
importance but have differences on the name of determining the quality of services, there are: (1) Reliability-
The ability to carry out the service which promised with reliably and accurately, (2) Responsiveness-
Willingness to help customers and provide services quickly, (3) Guarantee-Knowledge and courtesy of
employees and their ability to convey trust and confidence, (4) Empathy-willingness to provide deep concern
and specific service to each customer, (5) Tangible material-appearance of physical facilities, equipment ,
personnel, and communication materials. (Kotler, 2012)
So to measure whether or not the quality of service is required five determinants of quality of services as
mentioned above, there are Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, and Tangible.
2.3 Cooperative
The definition of cooperative comes from the English, cooperative means cooperation. According to
Muhammad Hatta, the cooperative was established as an alliance of weak to defend their purposes. Achieve the
purpose of their life at a cheapest cost, that's the target. On Cooperative, the main goal is the together needs, not
profit (in Subandi 2009).
While the ILO defines the cooperative from the point of view of the origin of cooperative members, cooperative
is a group of people, usually have the low economic ability, which through a form of business organization
which supervised democratically, each contributing an equivalent to the necessary capital, and willing to bear
risks and receive remuneration according to effort that they are taking (Subandi, 2009).
Furthermore Anogara defines a cooperative from the needs of cooperative members are associations of people
who recognize the need for certain common among them. This same requirement is jointly sought fulfillment
through joint ventures in the cooperative. So these people join voluntarily, in recognition of the together needs,
so in a cooperative there is no element of coercion, threats or interference from other parties (Anogara and
Widiyanti, 2007).
2.4 Employees Cooperative
In general, Employees cooperative are in a company or institution. Employees cooperative included in the class
of cooperative based on types of members. Employees Cooperative is a development cooperative phenomenon
in Indonesia since the new order.
In other countries, the classification of cooperatives in this way is rare. Although the constitution No. 25/1992
does not recognize these types of cooperatives as a cooperative group that stands on its own feet, but the
cooperative’s practices that took place in Indonesia cannot deny the fact that cooperatives in Indonesia generally
grouped by type of members. It is not only looked at the classification of Cooperatives in the primary and
secondary levels, but particularly striking at the level of the Prime Cooperative. (Baswir, 2009).
So basically employees cooperative is a cooperative which included in functional groups, it is a cooperative that
established under the auspices of an institution or company. In this research, the object is a cooperative manifold
employees cooperative (Kopkar).
2.5 Relationship Between Quality of Service with Customer Satisfaction
Customers will be satisfied with the services that have been provided if the services are in accordance with what
they expected. So the service that fulfill the customers expectation will give a positive influence on customer’s
satisfaction and so does the other way (Kotler, 2012).
In this research customers are members of the cooperative, the administrator service in accordance with the
members' expectations will affect satisfaction from the members of employees cooperative Bulog Division
Residence in East Java Province, Surabaya Town.
2.6 Research studies Accomplished
From the research of Sari (2009) states that the higher consumer dissatisfaction will weaken the influence of
service quality perception in consumer purchase intentions and service quality perception variables provide high
impact to consumers to make repeat purchases. The satisfaction of consumers when buying a product just due to
the perception of service quality is good, not from the satisfaction which is obtained when buying the product.

Furthermore, according to Dama (2010) states that simultaneously and partially based on the analysis which
used the dimensions of service quality in a real and give positive effect on customer loyalty to the Mandiri Bank
branch Gorontalo.
Meanwhile, Retnowati (2008) states that (1) the quality of service has an influence on satisfaction (2) the service
orientation has no effect on customer satisfaction (3) pricing strategies have an influence on customer
satisfaction (4) the quality of service has no effect on customer loyalty
The last is the International research by Munusamy, et al (2010), which states that there is a posifive relationship
occur between the giving of quality services to the customer’s satisfaction in the islamic banking sector in
Malaysia.
There are similarities and differences between the earlier research with research that conducted by researchers.
Similarly, the variables studied by both the quality of service and customer satisfaction. Meanwhile the
difference also lies in the variables, there are: (1) the repeat purchase intentions from consumers, (2) orientation
services, (3) pricing strategies, and (4) customer loyalty and (5) the time and place of research.
While the approach used in this research is associative approach, because the purpose of this research was to
determine the size of quality service for the member’s satisfaction of Bulog Division Residence Employees
Cooperative in Surabaya. The technique used is the multiple linear regression analysis.

4.2 Discussion
From the analysis in advance said that the quality of service significantly influence the member’s satisfaction of
Bulog Division Employees cooperative Residence in East Java Province, Surabaya. As a proof, the dimension
quality of service reliability that has given from the administrator of Bulog Division Residence Employees
Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, And Tangible: Still Can Satisfy The Customer?
www.ijbmi.org 74 | Page
Cooperative in East Java Province Surabaya affect on the satisfaction of its members are that shown in the speed
of service, accuracy of administrator appointments, and reliance in dealing with members of the administrator
will be considered in shaping consumer’s satisfaction / member.
In addition to reliability, the quality dimension of responsiveness also provide evidence that presented by the
readiness of the administrator in response to member requests, the willingness of the administrator to provide
information to members, the quick response of the administrator as to give effect to the formation of member’
satisfaction in Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province, Surabaya
As well as the dimensions of assurance service quality provide the evidence that presented by the administrator's
ability to generate the member’s confidence, administrators who have extensive knowledge and security
guarantees provided will give a better service impression thus increasing the member’s satisfaction of Bulog
Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province, Surabaya.
Unlike the other dimensions of service quality, the dimension of emphaty service quality has a negative and
significant effect on member’s satisfaction of Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java
Province, Surabaya. These results provide empirical evidence that empathy that given by the administrator does
not match as the member’s expectations, thus undermining the satisfaction of members of the Bulog Division
Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province, Surabaya.
The last dimensions of service quality that is the dimensions of tangible service quality which provides evidence
that presented by the facilities and modern equipment in rental buildings, and the public building. The cars are
rented by Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province is quite good, including
Kijang Innova (Toyota), X-trail (Nissan), Avanza (Toyota), and other cars were average assemblies in 2008 and
above. Besides, there also has a nice interior and human resources which are also determine member’s
satisfaction.
Thus, the results of this research support the theory of Kotler (2012) who said that "Customers will be satisfied
with the services that provided if the services provided are in accordance with what he had hoped. So the service
that customers expect to be a positive influence on customer’s satisfaction and so does the other way. "
In addition to supporting the theory of Kotler, the results of this research also support consistently with a
research by Retnowati (2009) which states that the quality of service has an influence on customer’s satisfaction
of railroad executive.
Reliability of service quality dimension is the dimension that has the most impact compared with other
dimensions of service quality. As evidence that dimensions of service quality Reliability provide the greatest
impact in comparison with the dimensions of the quality of other services can be demonstrated by the speed of
service provided by the administrator of Bulog Division Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java
Province, Surabaya to its members, in addition to the speed of service, the administrators also kept their
promise to members such as appointments committee about the length of administrative services which will be
completed at the time the administrator-determined.
The administrator’s service at the first time is also greatly affect member’s satisfaction of Bulog Division
Residence Employees Cooperative in East Java Province, Surabaya, because, when it comes cooperative
members, there are administrators who welcomed members of the greeting after it asked members what could be
assisted by the administrator to serve the member. With the cooperative management services during the first
against members of the cooperative, it will cause members feel appreciated and respected by the administrator
and in the end members will be satisfied with the services that have been given by the administrator.
It shows that the results of this research support the theory of Berry who mentioned the five dimensions of
service quality equally based on its importance, where the reliability variable is in the first place. Thus the
reliability variables has the greatest influence on customer’s satisfaction than the dimensions of the other
services quality.
However, these results are not consistent with a research by Munusamy, et al (2010), which states that the
Reliability is less significant effect on customer’s satisfaction bank in Malaysia because the services can held by
bank via the internet or mobile phones.
Likewise with research Dama (2010) which is not in line with this research, in his research said that the
dimensions of service quality that has the most influence on customer loyalty at an independent bank branch in
Gorontalo is a dimension of response service quality and the second is the dimension of emphaty service
quality, while the dimensions of lreliability service quality has the rhird rank.
