Abstract: The process management variable and the service quality variable date most
prominently from the beginning of the last century, and therefore, in organizations from
different parts of the world, whose search was to contribute effectively to administrative tasks,
facing the challenges of constant changes and evaluations. In Peru, both variables were
implemented since 2018, by technical standards, in order to contribute and improve public
institutional work. Thus, the objective was to know the most outstanding characteristics of
process management and service quality, using studies from different entities at the ecumenical
level and revealing their main benefits of application and contribution. Furthermore, based on
the systematic and methodical review of scientific articles from databases indexed to multiple
journals, which are registered and organized in databases such as WOS and SCOPUS, thus
theorizing their authors and perspectives. For this study, the documentary analysis technique
and the data collection guide were considered as an instrument; in accordance with the
PRISMA method. Finally, it is concluded that process management are methods available in
an organization to provide effective results using resources efficiently, with dimensions of
analysis, monitoring, and process improvements, contributing to organizational and strategic
productivity; Likewise, the quality of the service is user satisfaction when judging the value of
some service, dimensioning, analyzing needs, as well as evaluating, supervising and improving
the service, fulfilling needs with knowledge of their expectations.
Keywords: management; processes; quality; service; models of excellence; quality management
1. Introduction
Organizations are constantly facing challenges of constant change due to the
highly competitive environment, thus requiring their processes to be highly active and
always being evaluated; therefore, the incorporation of qualitative methods within the
processes justifies their quality, in the hope of satisfying the user (Cervera, 2022).
Thus, organizations have the duty to strengthen the technical capabilities of their
workers, with the approach of tactics in order to reduce the reluctance to change, and
strengthening leadership; in order to effectively implement the processes, which
constantly ensure the progress outlined in a proposed interval (Boñón et al., 2023).
Process management is applicable to any organization in the world, investing in
technology and other administrative resources, allowing significant benefits in terms
of effectiveness, performance and governance, all expressed in tangible and
quantifiable achievements (Boñón et al., 2022).
Consequently, this variable has been effectively contributing with ease in
business management, in the exchange of information, in efficient organizational
actions, as well as in the excellent service; adequately propitiating the effort and its
resources in favor of what the interested parties require (Deza et al., 2023). The process

management approach is seen as a set of management based on procedural
applications, allowing modeling, execution, monitoring, and presentation to the user,
based on the integration of functionalities of new and existing information methods
(Gudelj et al., 2021).
Internationally, service quality tends to be one of the elements that organizations
value in order to meet users’ expectations (Marchan et al., 2023). It allows
organizations to achieve a methodical and optimal performance, improving their
positioning in the market, as well as constituting a relevant source of information for
experts and connoisseurs of any economic occupation. It also establishes a functional
structure, together with an appropriate planning with its policies and standards,
specifying the objectives and essential methods, in order to meet the goals, set
strategically (Garcia and Masclef, 2023). At present, both private and public entities,
committed to providing goods or services, take into account customer service; a
service of excellence that has become a continuous obligation in order to improve
organizational processes, fully complying with the mission of the institution, and being
the justification for dynamically offering a pleasant service to users, mainly in public
institutions (Vicuña et al., 2023).
It is essential that organizations insert a stable method for making correct and
well-informed decisions, in the interest of improving results; for which, they must
establish quality and prolificness guidelines, implementing permanent improvement
components (Rodriguez and Anticona, 2023). Similarly, service quality is conceived
as the disparity that exists between the required user possibilities and the perceptions
obtained after receiving a service; moreover, when an entity meets the user’s
expectations, it is consolidated as user satisfaction, with a tendency to be reiterative
with their loyalty (Silva et al., 2021).
This article contributes to the bibliography of process management and service
quality, with the purpose of showing theories or approaches applied to address and
understand various specific aspects necessary; therefore, this study seeks to provide
answers to the following question (Rotbei et al., 2024), What are the most notable
characteristics of process management and service quality; for which the following
objective is proposed: know the most outstanding characteristics of process
management and service quality.
2. Materials and methods
It was carried out, based on the systematic review, considering articles published
within the last 5 years and in 3 different languages (Portuguese, English and Spanish),
in registered and ordered journals, whose databases are WOS and Scopus, being these
the most important and referential sources of international information as a quality
standard (Aguiar et al., 2021); additionally, other sources of information and Peruvian
legal regulations were considered. The systematic review is identified by using an
advantageous procedure, allowing the selection of relevant studies on a given topic, to
later analyze them carefully and evaluate their results (Khan et al., 2022). Furthermore,
it consists of synthesizing the conclusions of all research, with the purpose of arguing
a specific question; being of a narrative nature, allowing to recommend and organize
all relevant information (Manterola et al., 2023).
Journal of Infrastructure, Policy and Development 2025, 9(2), 9464.

The systematic review is based on three phases: 1) planning or organization, 2)
performance or elaboration, and 3) reporting; and each phase has its respective stages
(García-Peñalvo, 2022). The elaboration of a systematic review is summarized in five
technical stages: a) Identification of relevant keywords; b) Selection of the studies
described in the qualified databases; c) Evaluation of the selected articles, with
inclusion and exclusion criteria; d) Extraction of appreciable information; and e)
Synthesis of the extracted informative data (Blásquez and Sanchis, 2023). The
following keywords were identified: “management” and “processes” (in the process
management topic), as well as “quality” and “service” (for the service quality topic);
thus, developing a sequence of records based on the described topics, in order to reduce
the large usable bibliography, also setting inclusion and exclusion criteria (Page et al.,
2021).
Results obtained from the method
68 bibliographic references were obtained, from a total of 1343 cited articles from
the Web of Science and Scopus databases, in addition to 2 technical standards and 1
web page; expressed in the PRISMA flowchart in Figure 1.

3.1. Study results
3.1.1. Process management
The evidence of approximately 100 years of research in the field of
administration and the success achieved by multiple entities, marked the beginning to
recognize the implementation and development of management by process
(hereinafter referred to as MbP) as an important milestone in the search for continuous

improvement in an organization and its theoretical approaches: MbP) as an important
milestone in the search for continuous improvement in an organization and its
theoretical approaches; thus understanding that MbP is the way to manage processes
oriented to the development of strategies and fulfillment of objectives of a given
organization, generating value contribution and assuming interconnected perspectives
in order to satisfy the user (Malca et al., 2021). Likewise, Florian et al. (2023),
indicates that PPM is a set of techniques and methods, involving various resources and
factors, to optimize and guarantee results for an institution.
Similarly, Boñón-Silva et al. (2022), state that MbP can be described as the
interrelation between administrative management processes, whose objective is to
continuously improve with efficiency, flexibility and adaptation, which will contribute
value to the organization and thus expand user satisfaction. In the same line, Lages
and Martinez (2021), argue that MbP is an organization that differs from the functional
organization, in which the user prevails over functional activities, providing a position
and tools that serve to improve the work effectively to the needs of the user, allowing
the use of resources in an efficient and meaningful way.
For Zayas (2022), continuous improvement constitutes a sequence of procedures,
describing the intrinsic qualitative in the competitive; in addition, he specifies that
quality is fundamental in economic growth. Therefore, under the same context, the
methodical regulation for the application of process management in public institutions,
hereinafter: NT- GPOP (Technical Standard No. 001-2018-SGP-PCM),
conceptualizes it as: ‘the way to plan, institute, manage and regulate the work
functions in a transversal and successive way, towards the different national
organizational units, with the intention of pleasing the insufficiencies and the
perspectives of the citizenship; as well as achieving the institutional objectives,
considering the mechanisms that are executed as a structural system delimiting their
achievements and interactions, and establishing an outstanding rationale for the benefit
of the institution.

Likewise, it can be indicated that all the concepts seek user satisfaction, with the
fulfillment of the work and organizational functions, considering as a main part the
added value; with the fulfillment of administrative and fundamental factors within any
organization. In virtue of what is described in the NT-GPOP, the Peruvian State, in
2013 tends to approve the National Policy of Modernization in Public Management to
2021, finding as one of the five pillars the Management by Processes (MbP), which
seeks that the institutions obtain services with results, as long as they benefit the
ordinary citizen, prioritizing those with greater relevance according to the population
demand; having to exclude the obstacles or expenditures that cause an inappropriate
performance in public management.
The theories and their applied practices in terms of processes, have been
progressively making sense in their different organizational models, adapting to each
environment encountered; being so, that, in the beginning of these models, they were
not considered as a systemic method, adopting a specific perspective, and that this
knowledge would be the base for the strategic and fundamental foundations for each
institution; the following dimensions are presented for each model and author:
The Deming Cycle (See Figure 3), consisting of 4 steps: Plan, Do, Act and Verify
(PDVA), is an approach to continuously improve quality, usable in organizational
projects (Montesinos et al., 2020). It appeared in 1940 with its continuous
improvement tools, in 1950 it published its book setting out its fourteen principles and
its P-D-V-A cycle; and in 1993, it again proposes the way to exceed the expectations,
as well as the needs of the user during the life of the product (good or service), reducing
instability (Castillo, 2022).

Another model of excellence, in 1987 the Malcolm Baldrige’s model emerged

(See Figure 4), with its 7 elements, from the leader to satisfy the user in its results;
also, this model is used as a practice for the excellence of any organization (Parast and
Safari, 2024).
Figure 4. Malcolm baldrige model.

In 1988, the European Excellence Model “EFQM” (See Figure 5) emerged with
its characteristics of agents and results criteria (Abdullah et al., 2023). This model is
recognized as a valuable approach to achieve continuous improvement and excellence
in organizations, in the long term, considering the sustainable needs of the parties
involved; its adaptability and application makes it endure over time in cultural and
industrial fields. In its beginnings it was founded to optimize and value quality
practices; since then, it has been updated since 1999, 2003, 2010 and until 2013 (last
update), reflecting the adaptation to various environments and management paradigms
(Hassan et al., 2024).

Already in 1999, the Ibero-American Model appeared, which is based on the
European EFQM Model, quantifying its results in each of its eight criteria. It should
be noted that all of these aforementioned models are considered the most relevant
models of excellence among those that exist.

Management by processes “BPM” (for its acronym in English, Business Process
Management), shows that the recommended BPM is four phases (See Figure 6):
Analysis, Design, Implementation, and Execution (ADIE), which seeks to achieve a
systemic management as transversal, facilitating efficient dynamism and generating
advantageous competitiveness in any organization (Espinoza et al., 2020). The BPM,
imposes its implementation in the 2000s, understanding that it is a methodology that
proposes the optimization of resources and institutional competitiveness, through
organization, critical analysis and improved performance (Barreto, 2024).
Figure 6. BPM Phases.
Source: Adapted from Espinoza et al. (2020).
With respect to the NT-GPOP approach, process management is contemplated as
an administrative instrument in the performance of the objectives in the entities,
generating a positive impact on the welfare of its inhabitants; this regulation
establishes three phases as dimensions:
a) Identification of the processes (Missional, Tactical and Support). - It consists of
identifying the processes of the institution, and documenting the processes
through their characterization.
b) The Control, Monitoring and Analysis of the processes (Performance Levels and
Identification of Opportunities). It consists of measuring processes, determining
their efficiency and effectiveness and identifying opportunities for improvement.
c) Continuous improvement of processes. (Optimization, Results and
Implementation). It consists of optimizing the performance of processes within
the framework of the entity’s priorities.
In summary, we have the following Figure 7 of the 3 Phases of PM:

On the other hand, Suarez et al. (2023), specifies that the MbP proposal is
dynamic, by carrying out the certain phases or dimensions, and also concludes that
resources are optimized in a favorable and economical way, by excluding activities
that do not contribute to the procedures. Likewise, Gonzales and Cevallos (2022),
resolve that, with the study of organized equations, it was possible to decree a practice
to forge a pattern of service improvement in identification and registration of
individuals; allowing the technique and the quality of the processes to manifest their
fortification and improvement. Similarly, Casadiego et al. (2023), used
methodologically the historical finding and the stratagem of prudent events, making
known and facilitating in a lapse of time, the decision making; being the institutional
objective the efficiency in the logistic supplies, minimizing the operational risks.
With respect to BPM, Menutto et al. (2021) emphasize that, throughout its
trajectory, it has been developing at very high levels of use and acceptance, but that
there is still a lack of adequate information at the design stage and a lack of
involvement by users in the execution stage. In this regard, Parast and Safari (2024)
Journal of Infrastructure, Policy and Development 2025, 9(2), 9464.

argue that these models of excellence share a common principle, which is to improve
effectiveness and efficiency in each institution, understanding and adapting each
reality, evaluating its performance and identifying areas for improvement. On the
contrary, Fahimi and Amirabadi (2024), point out that these models do not have
mathematical programming, being very general and without specific institutional
customization.
From the above described, there are several authors of studies, the same that
express their conformity or their benefits, before the use of these models of impact on
organizations, as an example of this we have; Fernandez et al. (2020), indicate that in
their findings they ensure and safeguard the use of BPM as a positive methodology to
optimize processes, proving itself as a probable and advantageous systematic in order
to design, automate tasks, and improve processes; however, to develop it to the fullest,
factors such as outstanding technical support, greater involvement of personnel and
comprehensive monitoring must be taken into account.
Along the same lines, Cieza and González (2022) affirm that, in the corporate
environment, process research is an efficient and objective estimation tool, asserting
that corporate institutions that need to be known in a comprehensive manner, still
require technology to obtain information; where it is also confirmed that this same
process management model is a technique that contributes to the analysis and its
improvement, in each entity, once implemented. In general terms, in Ecuador, Florian-
Castillo et al. (2022), comment that the MbP has a positive impact on the
organizational competitiveness of the services sector, reaching appropriate categories
in relation to international standards.
With the Deming methodology, it was possible to identify the inputs and outputs,
the requirements and their characteristics; improving production processes and activity
control, which resulted in a qualitative improvement of products, in order to satisfy
users (Tello et al., 2023). Continuous improvement, based on the PDVA cycle,
achieves increased productivity, greater efficiency, improved administrative and
operational capacity, lower costs and greater profitability (Zegarra et al., 2023).
Organizations that implement the Deming method are able to promote continuous
improvement knowledge in the institution, because the cycle uses an organizational
structure and data to develop development plans (Buendia et al., 2021).
Likewise, Parast et al. (2024), maintains that, by using the MALCOLM
BALDRIGE Model, it demonstrated its importance in view of the contingency
perspectives when managing quality, emphasizing the distinction and its
organizational services. Likewise, Jorna et al. (2022), states, in general terms, that the
result of the MbP objectives does not materialize immediately, there being a need to
continue with the action and group work, which due to its implication tends to
strengthen and contribute to excellence in processes.
The Peruvian State, through its institutional web platform, www.gob.pe, details
the contributions of the MbP, when implemented in institutions, some of them are:
reducing waiting times and value, making efficient use of resources; incorporate
processes that allow institutional objectives to be achieved; stimulate the participation
and functional responsibility of workers, making the entity’s operations transparent;
positively impacting citizen satisfaction, improving the performance and supply of
State goods and services; inter alia.

3.2. Quality of service
One of the most interesting topics, both for academics and experts, is Quality.
This concept has evolved throughout history, from expectations in the 1930s, to
control in the 1940s, as well as quality assurance, until its application in the 1970s.
Since 1980, quality management has been proposed; and in the 1990s, concepts on the
so-called “good practices” were established, and a sequence of international
organizational standards began to be established (Castellanos et al., 2022). In view of
this, there are authors who came up with conceptual theories on the quality of service
(hereinafter: QoS), such as Castillo- Fiestas et al. (2021), which they conceive as the
compendium of knowledge, foundations and circumscribed instruments, such that
they allow quality management, focusing on the vigor of the institutional objectives
set in favor of the users.
The ISO 9001:2015 standard also specifies that the success of its implementation
is reflected in the fulfillment of perspectives and needs, in the satisfaction of regular
stakeholders, by it can also be conceptualized as the set of specialized management
tools, guided towards the qualitative technicality of a good or service, with the purpose
of satisfying its users (Rodríguez-Alza et al., 2022). Similarly, Peña et al. (2022),
indicates that there are 8 quality management principles in the ISO 9000 standards,
focused on the members of the community involved, to ensure their performance and
achieve their achievements; and details that quality management implies the
participation and constant monitoring of national policies and institutional
management documents.
From the user’s point of view, QoS is an effective instrument to compete among
organizations, building user satisfaction; therefore, added value must be provided in
each good or service, since user satisfaction has a directly proportional relationship
with QoS (Astudillo et al., 2023). Similarly, the technical regulation for the quality of
services in the public sector (hereinafter: NT-CSOP), conceptualizes QoS as the
intensity of satisfying the needs of citizens when making use of state resources or
services; it also indicates that it is the level of adequacy of services and goods, with
the claims of people (Technical Standard No. 001-2019-SGP-PCM).
Table 4 indicates the authors’ synthesis corresponding to Service Quality, as
follows:

It is the number of services provided by the state, tend to satisfy multiple expectations in turn people’s
needs, related to the adjustment of value of products (services) with the purposes that users expect to
acquire, in response State institutions tryng to organize themselves in a practical way (achieving expected
results efficiently using State resources).

According to Table 4 above, the quality of service is highly efficient, as long as
the expected results exceed the perspectives of the regular consumer of any service. In
the same way, this variable of the QoS, broadens the commitment to the whole entity,
integrating everything associated directly and indirectly with the users, being a risk
not to comply with the intended, often depends on the staff or the resources involved
in the product; And it is there, that the user issues a judgment in a global way as a total,
without breaking down its elements that compose it in a specific way, thus specifying
that the quality of service is nothing more than the perception of the qualities of a
product (good or service), with regard to meeting their expectations.
Multiple are the theories that have been developed with reference to the quality
of service, the same manifested in the application of their models adapted to each
reality along with its principles or dimensions. For the above described, we have: Six
Sigma DMAIC (Establish, Measure, Analyze, Optimize, Control), is a course of
strategic development based on measurement and focused on product improvement,
minimizing anomalies (Huang et al., 2024). In 1986, the Six Sigma Model appeared
(See Figure 8), invented to reduce defects in products and services; focused on
generating competitiveness among institutions, and with the purpose of satisfying the
user (Carrillo-Landazabal et al., 2022).
Figure 8..

In 1988, the SERVQUAL model was announced (See Figure 9), this model has
the facility to determine any dimension underlying its concept; this in turn, throughout
its adaptability, has been undergoing several updates to ensure its validity and
reliability, as well as in 1991 (Ruiz, 2020). Based on a total of 5 elements as
dimensions; Tangible Elements: takes into account the physical enclosures,
equipment, workers, advertising; Reliability: is the level of compliance to perform the
service they provide, in a reliable and accurate way; Responsiveness: related to the
ability to resolve concerns; Security: is related to the guarantee, capacity and
competence of the staff; and Empathy: is related to the understanding and attention
that the customer receives in a personalized way, having the firm belief that their
concern will be resolved. (Guaita et al., 2023).

In the same year, 1988, the NORDIC MODEL established by Grönroos was
announced (See Figure 10), which seeks to relate the quality of the service with the
institutional corporate image, also relating the user to the result of the service, in turn
interrelating the form received. with the institutional image, transversally studying the
discrepancies between what is expected and perceived of the service; The model is
made up of three elements, such as: the technical quality or result of the process
(represents the service received by the user, what?), the functional quality or aspects
related to the process (represents the experimentation of the service received, what?
what? what? how?), organizational quality or institutional image (represents the result
perceived by the user). (Alejo and Arias, 2020).

Later in 1994, the THREE COMPONENT MODEL by Rust and Oliver appeared
(See Figure 11), based on the Grönroos model, this model suggests three aspects such
as: the characteristics of the service, the design of the service environment and the
delivery of the service. (Alejo and Arias, 2020).

In that same year, 1994, Cronin and Taylor’s ServPerf model emerged, based on
the ServQual Model, which takes into account and is responsible for measuring only
user perceptions.
In 2001, Brady and Cronin’s Multidimensional Hierarchical Model emerged (See
Figure 12), based on users’ perceptions of service quality to evaluate performance by
levels and obtain a global perception. The model presents 3 dimensions such as:
quality of the interaction, quality of the environment and quality of the result.
(Graikinis-Evaggelinos et al., 2019).

According to the NT-CSOP, there are components to derive in the facets of
service quality (See Figure 13), aimed at influencing what people appreciate, which
starts with: a—Understanding the Requirements and Expectations of citizens, b—
Distinguishing the Virtue of Service, c—Strengthening the Service, d—Measuring
and examining the quality of service, e—Leadership and Agreement of the High
Command, and, f—Quality Culture of the Service provided by the public institution;
elements “e” and “f” are transversal in order to promote the improvement of services

Araujo et al. (2020), in their studies show that there is a divergence between the
stated dimensions of perception, demonstrating that the services do not contribute to
fully satisfy the needs of the user population, despite the fact that the performance and

quality of care are correctly established. On the other hand, Rodríguez-Armijos et al.
(2023) state that there is a very significant relationship between consumer satisfaction
and loyalty and the quality of service, with any action to improve service having an
aliquot impact on user loyalty and satisfaction. Similarly, Avendaño et al., (2023),
argue that there is an effective reciprocity between service quality and user
satisfaction, keeping a close relationship between them; stating that the quality of
providing a service intervenes in user satisfaction.
Other authors claim that the quality of service can only be assessed and delimited
by the consumer’s appreciation of the performance of its suppliers; furthermore, they
assert that the SERVQUAL Method does not estimate the quality of service, but rather
it is a way to discarding expectations (Florian et al., 2022). Similarly, Shanmugam and
Chandran (2022), argue that, in their evaluation of service quality, they found
dependence on important elements, such as: warranty, reliability, speed, protection
and technological enhancement.
Similarly, these authors express their advantages or benefits on this variable, so
much so that, according to Romero et al. (2021), argue that, applying the rectified
SERVQUAL model, the research contributes in that the estimation of the quality of
services accesses those who decide to have confidential and legitimate information, to
implement improvements to contribute to enhance organizational excellence and
performance; it was also given as results of surveys, that 25% have a degree of
dissatisfaction for internal users, while 38% for external users, attributing all this to
labor circumstances, dialogue, and economic performance. Also, Piñera and Cruz
(2023), argue that the SERVQUAL model is very useful in both public and private
institutions, showing its indispensability, because all segments involved in the
processes of the services have the knowledge of the effectiveness and performance
that involves continuous improvement in their work. In the present case, the results
show social and labor values, perceiving a good attitude of all the workers of the
institution. In addition, it is necessary to control the efficiency of the follow-up,
establishing also more assertive communications, benefiting the fulfillment of
perspectives.
On the other hand, Moreno and Costa (2022), argue that, quality management,
exposes a point of view to achieve desired effects, through the LEAN SIX SIGMA
procedure, which allows to distinguish and discard the bumps in the production
processes, combining the practical knowledge to the knowledge of the systemic
operation, with observations and changes, to measure the results; also, it is possible to
increase the processes, with efficiency, adding value to the trade, expanding its income
and conceiving reserves that get transferred to the user. In the same way, Chero et al.
(2022), in their study on the SIX SIGMA model, indicate that there are improvements
in quality control, reflecting how beneficial is the application in the organizations;
thus, allowing to eliminate all that element that does not add to the product, reducing
the defective numbers, contributing to reduce costs and increasing productivity.
On the other hand, Hernández (2021) indicates that quality management is based
on procedures, providing improvements in the institutional effort, evidencing that the
traditional parameters must be changed, thus implying a labor reordering, in such a
way that they contribute added value aimed at increasing user satisfaction and
facilitating the work of experts. Likewise, Alsuwaidi and Sultan (2023), in their study

results, showed that having motivated personnel, dynamically flowing with
knowledge and culture (performance and training) are very important factors in the
quality of services, with a view to institutional excellence. Before the NT. CSOP, it
seeks to strengthen the quality of service to citizens, within the framework of
Modernizing Public Management, with the help and use of elements or staff
performance, which contribute to impact on people’s satisfaction. Therefore, and as
described above, the design and implementation of quality paradigms should be
embodied in the organizations, in order to effectively and efficiently support the results
with accuracy and reliability in the relevant periods (Alhambra et al. 2023).
4. Discussion
It can be indicated that process management and service quality, since their first
appearances at the beginning of the last century, their contextualization of both
concepts since they have been studied, are terms that have been taking shape, both in
their application and updating under different authors; all of them in an effort to
organize the management of the entity and therefore favor the consumer.
The Deming model adjusts to various objectives and institutional contexts, being
used to solve problems of productive and business processes, guaranteeing the
expected benefits; given this, the model, being established in 4 steps in its procedure,
is limited in case of emergency or rapid action, because in each phase there is a high
analysis that can harm a project due to its slowness, in addition to making its
performance difficult individual of each worker, since it corresponds to teamwork.
In turn, Malcolm Baldrige’s model shows its importance in management due to
its sustainability and excellence, evaluating performances with projections and
providing methodologies in data analysis; but which, in turn, can lead to the
implication of collecting numerous irrelevant indicators.
Regarding the “EFQM” model, it shows us multiple paths to achieve excellence
by betting on its quality and financial effort, in addition to integrating organizational
relationships with the members of its environment, and reflecting on oneself in the
training work; On the other hand, this model presents additional costs by having
external support, it does not frame a short-term purpose, it does not present any
certification and the self-assessments carry a certain organizational risk by containing
blind spots within them.
The “BPM” model, for its part, aims at the growth of the financial business, with
a tendency to simplify problems quickly, minimizing risks, showing tangible results,
thus highlighting the work effort and ensuring that user service is of the highest level;
otherwise, by incorrectly applying the BPM model, you run the risk of losing funds
and resources, in addition to incurring the risk of performing poor analyzes by not
distributing information correctly.
Regarding the NT-GPOP model, since its inception it has intensified its
contribution to the fulfillment of institutional objectives, generating a positive impact
on the well-being of citizens; At the same time, it also shows as difficulties the massive
changes in organizational policies, the dissatisfaction of the needs of public services
and the complex organic structures not coherent with the objectives, among others,
that affect the citizen, and therefore, their family.
Journal of Infrastructure, Policy and Development 2025, 9(2), 9464.
19
Under the different approaches and their own theories, each variable tends to be
related from one approach model to another, often because over the years, the next
model tends to be based on one of its predecessors, each of them with the intention of
strengthening, adapting and being applicable to some entity.
The ServQual model is adaptable to any entity considering its own needs and
characteristics, establishing a quality mapping and identifying weak points to address;
On the other hand, this model does not consider actual performance because it is based
on customers’ perception and expectations, which are based on personal opinions.
On the other hand, the Six Sigma—DMAIC model presents its application to
reduce errors, defects and operating costs, improving product quality and increasing
user satisfaction; Likewise, this model increases its implementation costs for small
entities, blurring the vision of institutional policies and generating voluptuous
information for analysis.
For the Nordic Grönroos model, when applied in the entity, it specifies that the
expected service must match the perceived service to achieve consumer satisfaction,
stating that perceived quality is the difference between the dimensions of expected
quality. with the experienced quality.
Likewise, the 3-component Model agrees that satisfaction is largely influenced
by the perceived quality of the service, also considering other variables.
Likewise, the multidimensional hierarchical model maintains its importance
because it helps to manage, understand and improve work effectively, using valid and
guaranteed tools, measuring users’ perception of quality.
For the NT-CSOP, this model tends to guide the improvement of the products
(goods and services) provided, contributing in turn to the improvement of the quality
of life of citizens; having difficulties since its appearance, the Covid-19 pandemic, the
high turnover of hierarchical positions often due to political decisions, a systemic
vision that jointly affects its adaptation to change.
From the bibliographic total, there are different benefits according to the type of
organization applied, since each of them are usually very important, regardless of their
factors; also, there are some or other disagreements from the total studied, showing
that not all the publications have positive results.
5. Conclusion
Taking into consideration the different theories, approaches, and their actuality,
it can be concluded that process management would be the methodology with which
the entity optimizes its resources, satisfying user needs; generating efficiency and
development, by fulfilling institutional objectives. In another circumstance, it can be
indicated that the quality of the service is the posture of value of some service, which
involves inherent characteristics, in pursuit of personal or collective satisfaction.
The breadth of process management models allows us to know the differences
and similarities in terms of the points of view of each of them, in terms of management
and user satisfaction; The key factors are the human resources of each entity, as well
as the environment, institutional norms and policies, organizational culture, etc.
Each proposed model provides its own framework to improve your
organizational performance, with its own criteria and principles, according to your
Journal of Infrastructure, Policy and Development 2025, 9(2), 9464.

priorities; specifying that the choice of any model to apply will depend on the
particular contexts and needs of each organization. Furthermore, it should be noted
that all models share a common objective, which is continuous improvement, affective
leadership and user satisfaction, in the search for organizational excellence as a
relevant factor.
Each model or approach has its own characteristics for a particular purpose or
sector, which is why the most appropriate approach in terms of the facets of process
management, can be indicated or presumed in: Analyzing and identifying the
characteristics of the process, controlling its procedure, and Providing results with
accountability and functional action. With respect to service quality, its approximate
dimensions could be: Analyze culture and personal needs, Evaluate the value of the
service, Supervise the service, and improve the service.
Multiple models in terms of quality of service, it has its origin in the ServQual
model (as well as the Three Component model); Likewise, the ServPerf Model is
based on evaluating perceptions similar to the ServQual model, with the exclusive
difference of incisively measuring user perceptions.
In particular, each model described allows quality to be evaluated, differentiating
expectation and perception, thus specifying that the evaluation of both is not always
necessary; Perception is necessary in each model, interrelating the user with the
service provider, in addition to considering their characteristics and objectives of the
service, often leaving the organizational image in the background. Likewise, many of
them have an institutional focus with emphasis on aspects such as corporate image,
internal organization, sales, products, among others.
It should also be noted that these service quality models, to provide sustainability,
were applied in each specific space, generating their own experiences and
recommendations, based on their theoretical structure and independently of their
available instruments; Therefore, it is necessary that, for a greater contribution in terms
of an adaptation and validation process, the obtaining of own results with
approximations to each reality is presented.
Multiple benefits have been found in different publications, often supported by
models, such as process management: it contributes to the analysis of resources by
improving administrative processes, it reduces costs by generating greater
productivity, it conceives greater knowledge with a view to institutional strategic
planning, among others. For the quality of the service, its benefits can be specified in:
knowing the user’s expectations, discarding productive processes generating
profitability, performing the personnel’s culture, satisfying the needs motivating
personal or collective wellbeing, etc.
