High productivity is linked to higher standards of living As an economy replaces manufacturing jobs with lower
productivity service jobs, it is more difficult to maintain high standards of living
Higher productivity relative to the competition leads to competitive advantage in the marketplace Pricing and profit effects
For an industry, high relative productivity makes it less likely it will be supplanted by foreign industry

Service sector productivity is difficult to measure and manage because It involves intellectual activities It has a high degree of variability
A useful measure related to productivity is process yieldWhere products are involved
ratio of output of good product to the quantity of raw material input.
Where services are involved, process yield measurement is often dependent on the particular process: ratio of cars rented to cars available for a given day ratio of student acceptances to the total number of
students approved for admission.
