  1. 16. Uncovering Hidden Needs in Ground Engineering: Case Study of LKAB Wassara

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Igor Kordas; [2016]
    Keywords : Hidden needs; customer satisfaction; ground engineering; Outtalade behov; kundnöjdhet; grundläggnning;

    Abstract : This thesis stemmed from the need for better understanding of the ground engineering market by LKAB Wassara - an innovative company that developed a novel technology of hydraulic DTH-drilling; and from the insight that achieving customer satisfaction through fulfilment of hidden needs in the construction industry is a promising yet challenging endeavour.  The challenge addressed in this thesis is twofold: firstly, the conventional market studies often lead to the hidden customer needs being lost, while these needs are important for product innovation; and secondly, there is a lack of case studies exploring the explicit or hidden needs in the construction business that might be partially explained by complexity of interrelations of products, services and stakeholders inherited to the construction market.
