Abstract

In the wake of COVID-19, more consumers prefer non-face-to-face services and the explosion in the use of delivery apps is shaping a new delivery culture. Meanwhile, in order to solve social problems such as platform monopoly of private delivery apps and increased brokerage fees, many municipalities are launching public delivery apps from 2020 onwards. However, consumers who are used for the existing private delivery apps are not aware of the public delivery apps and the utilization rate is low. In this study, we will look at the impact of sense of community and service quality (information quality, delivery quality) on the intend to use public delivery apps. Studies have shown that SOC and information quality have a significant impact on the attitude of using public delivery apps, but not delivery quality. In addition, the attitude of using public delivery apps has been shown to have a mediating effect on the relationship between SOC, information quality and public delivery app use intentions respectively. Therefore, to activate the public delivery apps, it was found that it is necessary not only to promote, but also to improve user convenience, such as product search and user review inquiry to improve information quality, along with efforts to strengthen the sense of local community.

코로나-19를 계기로 비대면 서비스를 선호하는 소비자가 많아지고 배달 앱 이용이 폭발적으로 증가하면서 새로운 배달 문화를 형성하고 있다. 한편, 민간배달 앱의 플랫폼 독점과 중개 수수료 인상 등의 사회적 문제가 등장하자 이를 해결하고자 2020년부터 많은 지자체에서는 공공배달 앱을 출시하고 있다. 그러나, 기존 민간배달 앱 사용에 익숙한 소비자는 거주하는 지역의 공공 배달 앱 존재를 인지하지 못하고 있으며 이용율이 낮은 편이다. 본 연구에서는 지역공동체의식과 서비스 품질(정보품질, 배달품질)이 공공배달 앱 이용 의도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 한다. 연구결과 지역공동체의식과 정보품질은 공공배달 앱 이용태도에 유의한 영향을 주지만 배달품질은 유의한 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 공공배달 앱 이용태도는 공공배달 앱 이용의도에 유의한 영향을 주는 동시에 지역공동체의식, 정보품질과 공공배달 앱 이용의도의 관계에서 매개효과를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 공공배달 앱 활성화를 위해서는 홍보와 마케팅뿐만 아니라 지역공동체의식 강화 노력과 함께 정보품질 향상을 위한 상품 검색, 사용자 리뷰 조회 등 사용자 편의성 개선을 위한 노력도 필요함을 알 수 있었다.
