1.0 Introduction
Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) is the road transport regulatory agency of
Bangladesh. Bangladesh Road Transport Authority was established under section 2A of the
Motor Vehicle Ordinance of 1983 and the subsequent 1987 amendment. It has functioned since
January 1988. BRTA is a regulatory body to control, manage and ensure discipline in the road
transport sector of Bangladesh, as well as to maintain road safety. It works under the Ministry
of Road Transport and Bridges to carry out the purposes set out for it under the Motor Vehicle
Ordinance. The Chairman is the chief executive of BRTA. The chairman is in charge of
fulfilling the purposes of BRTA as prescribed by the rules and assigned by the government. The
total number of circles under the purview of BRTA is 62 (57 district circles and five metro
circles). Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) is a regulatory body established to
control, manage and ensure discipline in the road transport sector and road safety related areas
in Bangladesh. It is an authority under the Ministry of Communication for carrying out the
purposes mentioned in the Motor Vehicle Ordinance, 1983. Chief executive of the authority is
the Chairman who exercises such power and performs the related functions according to the
approved rules which are assigned by the Government from time to time. BRTA is the top
Government Organization under the Ministry of Communication in the road transport sector
who is authorized for providing services such as, Registration of Motor Vehicles, Issuance of
fitness certificate of motor vehicles, Issuance of Motor Driving License, Registration of Motor
Driving Training Schools, Inspection of Motor Vehicles involved in road accidents, Inspection
of Government Vehicles for Repair and etc. BRTA takes different actions and measures to
promote road safety and it also coordinates road safety activities carried out by different agencies
and organizations. Since BRTA is involved in different functions and operations in road
transport sector, it has four systems for four main functions and services.

4.0 Literature Review
Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) is responsible for regulating road transport in
Bangladesh. The duty of BRTA is to ensure discipline in road and manage the transport sector.
In1988, the Bangladesh Road Transportation Authority (BRTA) became the governing body
to regulate, manage and discipline road transport. The training of drivers, the issuing of driving
licenses, the authorization of roads, the collection of taxes, the registration of new vehicles, the
renewal of the registration of old vehicles and the checking of the fitness of such vehicles have
been carried out. But several concerns have been asked about the legitimacy of the BRTA since
the beginning of its operation. Despite having such an important role in the economy BRTA
fails to ensure road and transport safety as the internal management is corrupted and
unregulated.
4.1 Customer Satisfaction
Customer Satisfaction is a feeling of pleasure or disappointment of someone who appears after
comparing the performance (results) of the product thought against the expected performance
results (Kotler 2006:177, 2019). The dimension or indicator of Customer Satisfaction is if the
performance is below the expectations of eating dissatisfied customers, if the performance
meets expectations, then the customer is satisfied, if the performance exceeds expectations,
then the customer is very satisfied or happy (Kotler 2006:177, 2019) Customer Satisfaction is
an attitude that is decided based on the experience obtained. Satisfaction is an assessment of
the characteristics or privileges of a product or service, or the product itself, that provides a
level of consumer pleasure with regard to meeting consumer consumption needs (Sugeng,
2016). Dimensions or indicators of Customer Satisfaction can be created through quality,
service, and value. The key to generating customer loyalty is to provide high customer value.
(Sugeng, 2016).
4.2 Quality of Services
Most of the researchers evaluate that the quality management of BRTA is not good for the
general mob who have been suffering day after day due not to ensure quality management on
behalf of BRTA. There are vast feasibility to ensure public entrustment throwing correction
BRTA's management policy. BRTA should take some steps to do fixed public transportation
cost for every route as well as provide their service for reasonable cost so that general mob can
take their facilities easily and chiefly. BRTA can take some new innovation idea to encourage
dissatisfied people who don’t rely on BRTA service is good. They can cover most of the rute
10. Page | 4
of Bangladesh but they cannot cover still for management luck. People will be satisfaction
when they are able to be encourage people.
5.0 Research Hypothesis
➢ H0: There is no significant relationship between customer satisfaction and services
➢ H1: There is a significant impact of TQM on customer satisfaction
➢ H2: There is a significant impact of FE on customer satisfaction
➢ H3: There is a significant impact of innovation on customer satisfaction
➢ H4: There is a significant impact of Volume on customer satisfaction
➢ H5: There is a significant impact of cost on customer satisfaction
6.0 Research Model
The research model (Figure- 01) indicates that customer satisfaction depends on the
SERVQUAL dimensions (COST, TQM, Innovation, Flexible Efficiency, Volume). Therefore,
in this study, customer satisfaction was considered the dependent variable and the independent
variables were COST, TQM, Innovation, Feasibility, and Volume jointly representing the
service quality of BRTA. Moreover, key hypothesis H1 was tested along with the five sub-
hypotheses (H1a, H1b, H1c, H1d, and H1e) in order to achieve the objective of the study and
to justify the key hypothesis H1.
Figure-01: Research Model
An econometric model was used to analyze the relationship between dependent and
independent variables to explain the overall findings. Here suggested that for analyzing the
relationship between one dependent variable and several independent variables multiple
regressions analysis can be used. Hence, regression analysis with SPSS was run following this
regression model CS= α0+β1Cost+β2TQM+β3Innovation+β4FE+β4VL+ε Where, CS=
Customer Satisfaction, α0=Intercept, βn=Partial change in the dependent variable for one unit
11. Page | 5
change in an independent variable while other things remain constant, ε=Error of the estimate,
TQM=Total Quality Management, FE= Flexible Efficiency, VL= Volume.
7.0 Research Methodology
7.1 Sample
Google form was sent to 100 participants and the response rate was 83% as 83 respondents
from pharmaceutical companies filled out the given form. Therefore, the sample size was
enough for multivariate analysis (Jackson, 2001). Convenience sampling was used to collect
data. Data were collected from the respondents of the pharmaceutical companies located in
Dhaka city as 75.39% of total pharmaceutical companies are located inside the capital.
7.2 Measures
A structured questionnaire was used to collect data which consists of six sections. The first
section included five questions, which consisted of the demographic profiles. The second
section covers five items of TQM of BRTA service. The third section consists of six innovation
items of BRTA service. The fourth section contains seven items on the Volume and cost of
BRTA services. The fifth section contains seven items of customer satisfaction of BRTA
services. A five-point Likert scale (strongly disagree=1 to strongly disagree=5) was deployed
to measure the items. Google form was used to gather data and a formal mail or messenger
message was sent to respondents to give an overview of the research purpose.
7.3 Data Analysis Method
At first, data was collected from th-9e respondents through Google form in excel format. Then
standard deviation method was applied to screen and clean data with a view to removing
unengaged data in Microsoft Excel platform. Total of 12 data was removed from the raw data
file. Rest of the 83 engaged data was imported to SPSS data sheet for further analysis. After
importing, internal consistency and reliability of the data set were measured using Cronbach’s
Alpha Reliability Test. Some descriptive statistical methods were applied to summarize the
overall responses. Finally, al l the hypotheses were tested using regression analysis method.

9.0 Findings
According to the SPSS analysis report it is found that the independent variables are affecting
the dependent variable. Here 5 independent variables are TQM, FE, Innovation, Volume and
cost and the dependent variable is Customer Satisfaction. By the table it is found that 4 (TQM,
FE, Innovation and Volume) out of 5 have a positive impact on customer service when one-
cost has a negative impact over customer service. From the table we can see that the value of r
square=.537 This means it has almost a 53.7% impact on customer satisfaction and the value
of p is also less than 0.001 means p < .001.
10.0 Implication
5 independent variables such as TQM, FE, Innovation, Volume and cost are implied
over one dependent variable is customer service. Here 5 independent variables that
have any impact over one dependent variable or not have been tested by Correlation
and regression. In the correlation each one of the dependent and independent
variables have any impactful relation or not have been tested through 2-tailed tests
and in regression the value of r and r square, F,t and p value are computed
respectively and later compare to find out any impact have or not.
11.0 Limitation of Studies
A. Lack of Sample size
B. Lack of available and/or reliable data
C. Lack of prior research studies on the topic
D. likert scale questionnaire can not express all question answer properly.
E. Lack of access to the BRTA.

12.0 Conclusion
Bangladesh must have an efficient and sustainable transport system to ensure continued
economic development and wellbeing of the people. However, the present trend of
development appears to be more ad-hoc having no explicit focus on future requirements and
the means of meeting these directions on a competitive as well as sustainable basis. The need
to address the deficiencies with appropriate policies, strategies and actions as indicated in
chapter V are of paramount importance in the context of new environment of increased
globalization, regionalization and privatization.
As we can see, the independent variables have an impact on the dependent variable. So BRTA
should focus on those variables. especially in cost because it has a negative impact over
customer service.
BRTA need to improve the service quality. The survey result show that most of the customer
are dissatisfied from the BRTA services. However, they must improve the time management,
volume, feasibility and as well as cost.
