Going beyond the purely transactional, Customer Service relies on trust with the customer and your own organisation just as much as it does transactional efficiency itself.
Customer Service Excellence is of course achieved with a balance of other key factors of efficiency and quality, both over-emphasis and under-valuing need to be avoided for the most effective customer service model.
By working with leading FMCG companies we have developed an inventory of best practices to boost team efficiency through adding value, eliminating waste and re-aligning internal processes. Our work with these companies has enabled us to identify a number of key efficiency-related traits influencing their progress towards an effective customer service solution.
The effective use of technology plays a huge role in bypassing bottlenecks, especially where there is reliance on manual processing, intervention and decision making. Many of these applications are not considered core to a company's IT strategy despite being a key area for a quality model, but can be applied locally, or via SAAS tools that address local needs, complementing the core IT Strategy.
We deliver significant change in short time frames. By diagnosing issues impacting quality and efficiency we can then use the appropriate process change and technology to resolve and re-focus newly freed resources on added value activity, enabling you to build quality and trust with major customers.
