Golf courses

Golf course in the early morningThe development of performance indicators for golf courses is aimed at providing golf courses with the ability to assess, monitor and improve their performance across a range of management and service delivery functions. This follows similar research and development already conducted by CERM PI for public sports and leisure centres, university sports facilities and outdoor centres. With growing competition amongst golf courses, as customers come to expect higher standards of service quality, many organisations are looking to such strategies to provide a competitive advantage.

A total of 21 customer service quality (CSQ) attributes are included in the questionnaire, based on customer focus groups used in trials in collaboration with 7 public golf courses.

The CERM PI team has now compiled operational management (OM) performance indicators for golf courses, which provide owners and managers with the ability to assess, monitor and improve the operational efficiency and performance of their courses, by providing valuable external national benchmarking comparisons.

In January 2003, Scott Edgecombe, Research Assistant with CERM PI was featured in a nationally screened ABC 7.30 Report. The story focussed on golf course management around Australia.
