Scope Summary
17
Passenger Satisfaction Research
• Likely twice a year in Spring and Fall
• Currently done through intercepts at both IAH
and HOU airports to measure satisfaction of
departing, connecting and arriving passengers,
both Domestic and International
• 55 million passengers per year (42m at IAH and
12m at HOU)
• Appropriate sampling to provide 95% confidence
with 5% margin of error for each segment
• Detailed reporting and data are end products
among other things
18
Passenger Satisfaction Research
• Information on departing passengers and their perceptions of various facets of the passenger experience must include:– Demographic information including age, country, state, city and zip code of origin, household income, size and ages of
family, country of residence, expected departure time (for the purpose of establishing how early each arrived), and frequency and type of travel (business, leisure, etc.)
– Usage and ranking of airport facilities and services including dining and shopping, parking, amenities, airline lounges, shuttles, ground transportation, inter-terminal transportation, cleanliness, restrooms, ticketing and baggage, security, wayfinding, and customer service. The current survey tracks between 70-73 attributes depending on airport.
– Key Driver Analysis through multivariable regression and asymmetry analysis resulting in the prioritization of the top ten actionable conclusions – currently 7 for departing passengers
– Added insight on demographics provided through a subscription to Nielsen/Scarborough or other metropolitan-level research for the Houston market
– Open-ended responses captured, translated, and codified for context by airport – currently 24 different categories are tracked and 16% of respondents provided open-ended responses in the last wave of research
• Information on arriving passengers and their perceptions of various facets of the passenger experience must include:– Demographic information including age, country of origin, household income, size and ages of family, country of
residence, expected departure time (for the purpose of establishing how early each arrived), and frequency and type of travel (business, leisure, etc.)
– Usage and ranking of airport facilities and services including dining and shopping, parking, amenities, airline lounges, shuttles, ground transportation, inter-terminal transportation, cleanliness, restrooms, ticketing and baggage, security, wayfinding, and customer service. The current survey tracks approximately 20 attributes.
– Key Driver Analysis through multivariable regression and asymmetry analysis resulting in the prioritization of the top ten actionable conclusions – currently 3 for arriving passengers
– Open ended responses captured, translated, and codified for context by airport – currently 24 different categories are tracked and 16% of respondents provided open-ended responses as of the last wave of research
19
Hierarchy of Needs Research
• Two components
– Qualitative (Focus Groups) to establish trends and
attributes
– Quantitative to validate utility and influence on target
population
• Both Domestic and International Research is
planned during five year contract
20
Psychographic and Transactional Analysis
• Likely once a year
• Analysis of visa or other credit transactions for key Zip codes near airports
• Analysis of psychographics based on predominance of Mosaic psychographics in representative zip codes
• Historic trends, actionable opportunities and insight on segments
• Utilization and access of other sources of demographic research such as Nielsen, Pew, Simmons or other sources may be requested to provide additional insight on the population.
21
License Plate Capture Analysis
• Likely once every other year
• More than 1.5 million park at HAS parking lots and terminals per year
• Each vehicle has a plate scan for reporting and records
• HAS anonymously appends through third party Zip code data to analyze psychographic profiles of parking customers
• Utilization and access of other sources of demographic research such as Nielsen, Pew, Simmons or other sources may be requested to provide additional insight on the population.
22
Parking Satisfaction Research
• Likely once a year
• 1.5 million parkers per year and sampling needs to represent twelve different facilities and multiple programs
• Previous methodology included intercepts and online surveys in order to capture competitive intelligence
• Appropriate sampling to provide 95% confidence with 5% margin of error for each segment
• Detailed reporting and data are end products among other things
23
Parking Satisfaction Research
• Demographic Information including age, geography, household income, size of family, country of residence, length of stay, quantity of baggage, frequency of parking, make/model of vehicle, and type of travel (business, leisure, education, medical, and family travel).
• Usage and ranking of parking facilities and services including decision set, parking location, shuttle experience and timing, use of amenities, advertising effectiveness, form of payment and use of coupons, safety, cleanliness, walkways, elevators, guidance technology, wayfinding, membership in airline and parking loyalty programs, and customer service.
• Open ended responses captured, translated, and codified for context by airport – currently 13 different categories are tracked and 6% of respondents provided open-ended responses in the last wave of parking research
• Correlation to other parking-related research should be identified and incorporated into presentations, such as similarities to psychographic segments, overlap in parkers and insights from previous passenger research.
24
Ad Hoc Research
• Parking Product Research – likely a conjoint
analysis or Max-Diff depending on approach and
number of attributes
• Micro-surveys – digital application of short
research questions to assets
• Brand Perception – Qual and Quant for brand
elements, logos, advertising, assets and
products.
25
Reporting
• Written reports and related in-person presentations will be required for each study for senior HAS leadership and staff members highlighting results, trends, strategic insights and opportunities. Online modules containing data for each study will be loaded to a pre-existing dashboard interface, or an interface created or developed at no additional cost to HAS, to allow analysis and custom report generation by multiple users. Historic data from previous studies will also be required to be integrated into this interface. This includes 9 previous waves of passenger satisfaction research, one previous study of parker satisfaction research and may include other databases of information HAS deems relevant. If needed, training should be provided by the consultant for users of the content on any platform providing research and reporting.
