While the scope of this analysis concentrates on SERVQUAL from the standpoint of capturing data, information and knowledge from a customer standpoint, there are many ancillary implications that also apply to the knowledge-based theory of firms as well.

From this standpoint, SERVQUAL can fuel significant change that is predicated on the knowledge-based theory of firms.
