Brand Quality, Smart-FTO System, Ishikawa DiagramAbstract
In an effort to improve brand quality, the National University of Laos (NUOL) implemented the Smart-Figuring Things Out (FTO) System Model based on the Ishikawa Diagram. This article discusses the application of the model in analyzing organizational needs mapping and identifying factors that influence the brand quality of higher education institutions. The analysis reveals several key factors, including academic quality, facilities, services, and community engagement. These factors are associated with eight dimensions of brand quality: performance, features, reliability, conformance, durability, serviceability, aesthetics, and perceived quality. By identifying and addressing these factors, NUOL can develop comprehensive strategies to enhance its reputation and competitiveness. The application of this model shows an increase in public perception of NUOL, a rise in the number of applicants, and improvements in academic rankings, which can serve as a reference for other universities in similar efforts.
