This project required up-skilling customer service staff enabling them to answer all types of customer enquiries. This enabled them to be more flexible in resourcing incoming telephone volumes and written correspondence. BeSPOKE began by documenting all processes, including service transactions and account maintenance. This material spanned over 120 different processes carried out on their billing system, HiAffinity.
These documents were then used to form the basis of a phased programme cross-training the customer service advisors. Training was delivered in a classroom environment, using skills practice and scenario games to reinforce key learning points. The documents themselves were produced so that they could be used printed or as an online tool.
