Detecting complaints in the customer centre faster

Starting point

For a municipal utility with several customer offices, the quality of direct customer contact was hard to manage in good time. Criticism often only surfaced as a complaint or an online review.

How does customer feedback become usable in day-to-day operations at a municipal utility?

During the project, conversation guidelines, feedback at the location and targeted escalation to the responsible manager were combined into one process. A dashboard makes critical situations visible promptly.

In this way, scattered feedback becomes a service case that can be dealt with while the customer is still in the customer centre. The number of positive reviews rose by 90%.

What entrepreneurs can take from this

Service quality can be managed when feedback arrives where action is still possible: with the customer on site.

A mechanism, not a promise of results: the effect depends on your starting process.
