description The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of service on competitive advantage. The unit of analysis in this study is the manager of a manufacturing industry company in South Sumatra. The results showed that a good level of service would create a competitive advantage that had the characteristics possessed by managers to produce a production advantage over similar companies.

Competitive advantage can come from various company activities such as in designing, producing, marketing, delivering, and supporting its products. Each of these activities must be directed to support a relatively low cost position with good quality on the basis of creating differentiation.
