Study Notes

Kano Model Overview

  • Developed by Professor Noriaki Kano in the 1980s, this framework assesses customer satisfaction concerning product features.
  • It categorizes product features to prioritize product development efforts.

Kano Model Feature Categories

  • Must-be attributes (Basic Needs): Essential features customers expect; absence leads to dissatisfaction, presence doesn't significantly increase satisfaction.
    • Example: A smartphone's calling functionality.
  • One-dimensional attributes (Performance Needs): Features directly influencing satisfaction; better implementation leads to higher satisfaction.
    • Example: Increasing smartphone battery life.
  • Attractive attributes (Excitement Needs): Unexpected features delighting customers when present; absence doesn't cause dissatisfaction.
    • Example: Wireless charging on a smartphone.
  • Indifferent attributes: Features neither satisfying nor dissatisfying, impacting customer satisfaction regardless of presence or absence.
  • Reverse attributes: Features some customers positively perceive, while others view negatively.
    • Example: Minimalist design in a smartphone.

Kano Model Visual Representation

  • Typically depicted graphically, with the x-axis representing feature implementation level (absent to fully implemented) and the y-axis representing customer satisfaction (dissatisfaction to satisfaction).
  • Different curves illustrate feature category impact on satisfaction.

Kano Model Implementation

  • Organizations gather customer feedback using surveys, asking two key questions for each feature:
    • Functional Question: How would you feel if the product had this feature?
    • Dysfunctional Question: How would you feel if the product did not have this feature?
  • Responses categorize features into Kano types, guiding product development.

Benefits of Using the Kano Model

  • Prioritization: Helps identify features impacting maximum customer satisfaction.
  • Resource Allocation: Distinguishes essential from non-essential features, enabling efficient resource allocation.
  • Competitive Advantage: Including attractive features differentiates products.
