Customer Service
Leveraging data related to your customers can provide unique advantages in the telecommunications industry, especially for communication service providers. By integrating business process management tools into your processes, your organization can become more customer-centric and lead to business growth that may have felt unattainable previously.
Here are some ways you can elevate your customer experience:
- Automate service activation and customer order fulfillment, speeding up delivery time and improving customer experience from the start of their journey with you.
- Converge call center operations on one work platform which delivers all the information, systems and customer interactions within one interface.
- Increase customer loyalty and reduce churn by ensuring the customer experience is always first-class at every touch, with defined, repeatable processes and measurable outcomes.
Market Development
Another big hurdle for many media and telecom companies is the ability to develop markets. BPM can add additional clarity to your data and allow your team to adapt to market changes and achieve operational excellence that may have previously felt unattainable.
Some Market Development benefits for media and telecom companies that leverage BPM include:
- Deliver more growth by providing a 360-picture of your customers and markets, by converging data, people, resources, people, and devices onto one work platform.
- Eliminate paper and accelerate operational activity with automated processes, adaptable workflows, and enterprise task management.
- Greatly reduce report creation time, with automated reporting based on preset business rules, triggered upon exceptional variances or pre-determined, recurring dates and times.
- Increase data entry productivity by ensuring all other systems are updated from one work platform which retains customer information, triggers work orders, and integrates with accounting and finance, as well as sales and marketing.
Security & Risk Management
Some of the biggest security issues arise from business processes that are out of date or that are unable to integrate data properly and allow your teams to make the correct decisions and safeguard them from potential risks.
Integrating BPM into your company will allow your team to:
- Establish clear governance with automatically enforced business rules ensuring workflows are followed with full procedural compliance, backed by enterprise task management.
- Risk mitigation is achieved simply and effectively with process optimization utilizing both real-time and past trend data, supported with predictive analytics & BI.
- Regulatory and business compliance becomes a natural by-product of workflows and business processes, supported by a full audit trail and non-repudiable compliance record which maintains a record of every field input throughout the BPM platform.
- Improve and simplify security through role-based permissions embedded within the BPM platform, while contact visibility controls ensure only those authorized individuals (internal and external to the enterprise) gain access to data. (HighGear meets ISO, ITIL, NIST 800-53, SOX and SAS 70 compliance and security standards).
- Dynamic business rules ensure operational integrity is created and maintained.
Infrastructure Management
Infrastructure can decay both physically and digitally. For companies in the media and telecom industries, staying ahead of internal infrastructure decay can help your teams maintain efficiencies that lead to growth.
BPM’s influence on Infrastructure Management can allow your teams to:
- Consolidate case management on one work platform, with all information and documents held within one repository.
- Accelerate response times through automated workflows and business processes, providing superlative collaboration of people, systems and assets, available anywhere, anytime and on any authorized device.
- Merge field and office operations with remote installation testing (pinging) while enforcing field procedures through business-rule compliant workflows, all accessible through a web browser and Mobile.
- Enjoy performance optimization through social collaboration functionality and access to knowledge no matter it resides within the enterprise.
