Thesis Abstract:Customer and employee surveys indicate that NPS' Housing Welcome Center is stymied by an information bottleneck at the junction of its counselors and customers. Incoming classes decry housing for its poor communication and lack of information. Housing counselors, ever aware of customer satisfaction, spend too much time transacting routine information rather than helping families solve unique problems. This study examines how World Wide Web technology can widen the bottleneck of poor communications between counselor and customer so as to facilitate both information transactions and problem solving. This study gauges housing customer satisfaction and determines those elements that customers believe constitute "A Great Housing Office." An employee survey, a counselor focus group and archival research further demonstrate the dichotomy between where effort is expended and where it is needed.
