Global Director, Operations
Key challenges faced

Paper training, slow fixes, missed sales.

Knowledge sat on paper, issues took too long to resolve and service visits never led to new sales.

  • Lack of a centralized knowledge repository
  • Inability to provide effective training due to reliance on paper-based documentation
  • Inefficient customer issue resolution system, leading to prolonged resolution times
  • Lack of efficient service subscriptions
  • Inability to cross-sell during service activities, limiting revenue growth
