A Market-Segment Template for Public-Sector Organizations: Introducing a Client Stance Model
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
ABSTRACTWhat can government and nonprofit organizations do when different segments of the public respond differently to the same program? How can these programs operate efficiently - and effectively - with all segments of the target population? After all, public-sector organizations are often criticized for blind uniformity in dealing with the public. This discussion paper offers an intuitive, practical approach for defining important differences among population segments based on attitudes and behavior. Then, given this segmentation, it sets the stage for developing administrative and regulatory enforcement strategies that ease compliance and, when necessary, trigger sanctions for noncompliance.Keywords.

How can these programs operate efficiently - and effectively - with all segments of the target population? After all, public-sector organizations are often criticized (Dvorin and Simmons, 1972; Goodsell, 2004) for blind uniformity in dealing with the public. This discussion paper offers an intuitive, practical approach, first, for defining important differences among population segments and, second, for developing administrative and regulatory enforcement strategies that allow ease of compliance and, when necessary, sanctions for noncompliance.Definitions and ContextFor purposes of this study, these terms carry the following definitions:Market segmentation - The practice of dividing markets up into homogenous 'segments' of consumers or customers. The members of any given segment are assumed to respond to communication or to behave in the same way (Barnett and Mahoney, 2011, p. 9).Program administrators - Nonprofit and government officials or organizations responsible for public-sector undertakings including such activities as enforcing regulations and providing public services. For convenience in this paper, these are frequently referred to as programs.Program clients - The targeted population of individuals or organizations subject to a public-sector program or other activity. The relationship may be voluntary (such as a city park user) or involuntary (such as a regulated business) and may range in frequency from occasional to continual (Hyde, 1992).Public sector - Governmental and nonprofit entities. Includes levels of government, bureaus and agencies, and other organizational labels. An organization can be a part of the public sector or the private sector; however, this paper focuses on organizations in the public sector.These terms and variants of these terms are used throughout this paper.Public-sector organizations encompass governmental entities and nonprofit entities. Their goal, broadly speaking, is to serve the public at large. Therein, they differ from private-sector organizations, which seek foremost to benefit their owners. But public and private organizations do their jobs by addressing a defined need through products and services - and through attention to target populations such as veterans, drivers, Medicare users, or residents of a given community.Public-sector organizations differ from one another in size, complexity, and purpose. Nonprofit organizations might be set up to serve their own members (as with a labor union, homeowners association, or professional society) or to reach external clienteles (as with a hospice service, a philanthropic foundation, or an advocacy group). Government organizations might be set up to create and maintain infrastructure or provide public services (as with public works departments, emergency response, or school districts) or to assure compliance with a group of laws and regulations (as with workplace safety, insurance and banking, or the courts). These institutions serve us all by their focus on a particular mission and, almost always, on a target population. …
