Abstract: The quality of services should be treated as a resultant derived from the satisfaction of the costumers participating in the service consumption, which requires prior knowledge on the predictable behaviour and reactions of the clients to the offered services. In its turn, the service monitoring systemâ€(tm)s design must be shaped according to these behaviours: service delivery, service delivery management and service quality control are therefore inherently subject to a double purpose: obtaining consumer satisfaction and stimulating them to seek, in the future the services of the same tender. It is obvious that, in the case services, their intangible character makes quality aspects to be rarely identified in physical or quantifiable indicators, which means that service quality measurements remains largely subjective or up to the client. As a result, each manager must choose some criteria for establishing the principles used in quality assessment and, ultimately, the practice under market competition conditions, is the one that will approve or not, on the long run those criteria, therefore the serviceâ€(tm)s quality and its adequacy for a particular customer segment.
