Assessments
A service and support environment is a complex operation, and the many parameters that affect its success can make it difficult to identify, prioritize and address the issues to change. Pressure to increase the quality of service and support, the productivity of internal technology users, and the satisfaction of the end customer places increasing strain on limited resources.
Our comprehensive assessments involve analysis of many aspects of the enterprise. Our exclusive assessments bring an operation more into line with industry best practices, reduce costs, create revenue generating service centers and improve morale of the help desk and contact center team.
High Tech High Touch Assessments include tools such as:
Evaluation of staffing levels, assessment of communication and team morale, review of ergonomic concerns, infrastructure, staffing, work environment, and, communication processes.
Analysis of call trends and statistics, review of call handling techniques, observations of agent's phone skills, incident management, and trend analysis Information. Review knowledge sources, and recommended Knowledge Management approaches.
Assessment of call tracking system effectiveness, review of phone system and ACD design, and specialized software is part of our assessment deliverables.
Our assessments also include a valuable Gap Analysis. This analysis represents the comparison of your existing Call Center or Help Desk to the rest of the industry. The charts produced from the analysis can be utilized for future benchmarking. The information can be reassessed every six months and compared to the previous results. This will provide a tool for measuring the rate of improvements as the re-engineered support environment progresses.

Introduce the interviewees to Knowledge Management. We provide information about how a solution centered support organization functions and the benefits to the company.
Identify the potential knowledge users and contributors. These may include, but not be limited to, analysts in the support organization, at all levels, and end users. Other staff may be users of the Knowledge Base by-products, such as a listing of the most common problems with custom applications. Groups outside of IT use a Knowledge Base to help their non-technical staff solve information problems.
Identify the sources of existing knowledge. These may include, but not be limited to, knowledge in analysts? heads, existing call records, email chains of Frequently Asked Questions, existing technical documentation, and analysts?cheat sheets.
Determine processes in place in the support organization today, including any knowledge management efforts.
Knowledge management is revolutionizing the functionality of the Call Center and Help Desk. Companies want to please their users and have found that implementing a Knowledge Management system is crucial for success.
Technology (top)
Call Centers and Help Desks often already exist and many of them in multiple locations. The true challenge for the business is the reconfiguration of its support resources into a more effective unit. These changes in the Call Center and Help Desk, from being reactive to proactive, can help generate additional revenues for the company.
Selecting and implementing the right set of technology will significantly improve the effectiveness of Call Center and Help Desk operations. Depending on the business, the representatives and technicians need a variety of software products to effectively serve the customers and end users.
There are hundreds of vendors that offer support software. We believe in providing the technology that will work best in your company. That is why we are vendor neutral. This may give us the extra challenge of staying on top of all the support software innovations, but we enjoy seeing the companies we help succeed beyond their expectations.
