A company, which wishes to succeed, must be aware of all these requirements and constantly improve its ability to meet them. There are a number of sources of information on customer requirements. Examples include: Customer surveys Trade surveys Working with selected customers Competitor analysis Focus groups Benchmarking Customer complaints Legal and guideline standards (for example, ISO 9000) Informal customer, or potential customer comments received from sources such as: the sales force after customer visits; feedback from other employees and comments heard at conferences, training courses and trade exhibitions Every contact with an existing, or potential, customer at any level in the organization is an opportunity to learn more about their requirements.
