Abstract

This research attempts to examine the role of supply chain management in enhancing customer satisfaction in the banking industry, taking Skye Bank Sierra Leone Limited as case study. Accordingly, the research focused on assessing some specific supply chain variables (reliability, responsiveness, agility, cost and quality of products and services), among others, which are judged to influence customer satisfaction in the banking industry. The study utilized a mix of quantitative and qualitative data, for which descriptive statistical methods were adopted to analyze the quantitative data while a narrative analysis method was used to analyze the qualitative data. 185 participants being customers of the case institution were targeted for this research via convenient sampling, from which 162 customers took part in the research. Findings revealed that, the variables being assessed in this study seem to have an influence on customer satisfaction in the case institution. Specifically, the reliability and responsiveness aspects evaluated tend to contribute more to the satisfaction of customers in the case institution while the agility, cost and quality of products and services aspects assessed tend to contribute less to the satisfaction of customers. The paper proffers some recommendations for enhancing customer satisfaction and improve loyalty via use of Quality Function Deployment (House of Quality).
