SERVICE DISPATCH
Q360 - Innovative Software
After the initial sale, there is
nothing more important than excellent Customer Service. Q360
rounds off its front-line Customer Relationship Management
suite with Service Dispatch.
Q360 Service Dispatch automates the costly,
time-consuming, and paper-intensive processes associated with
technical support and field service departments. These processes
include communicating with headoffice, receiving work assignments,
completing workorders, submitting billing information to accounting,
and even ordering and tracking parts. With Q360 SD, field
service companies can increase a technician's productivity,
heighten customer satisfaction, reduce operation costs, and
improve profitability.
Q360 SD is an excellent solution for the
small enterprise, but was designed for large, complex information
sharing organizations. Q360 SD has been successfully implemented
in companies with more than 700 field technicians with call
centers with dozens of dispatchers handling over 50,000 calls
per month.
Q360 SD is a complete solution for your
service department, it will help any organization that requires
superior management of field service resources, warehouse
tracking, contract management and Helpdesk activities. Q360
SD even offers wireless and web-based solutions.
Service and Dispatch draws upon the same
customer information as other departments, thus everyone in
your firm has access to information containing the customer's
entire experience with your company. Through the use of work
queues, service staff can manage workflow from all customer
touch points, whether it's through the call center, interactive
voice response, the web, or email automation.
Service calls are handled with Q360's
call center Helpdesk or through its web based self help eService
System. Dispatchers have a quick view of the customer's entire
service history, product and site profile and can view technician's
whereabouts' through optional integrated mapping software,
ensuring they have the most accurate and timely information
to make better decisions.
Service Workorders are quickly created
and are integrated with Q360's accounting and inventory modules,
locking down control of spare parts and regular inventory
stock. Dispatchers can also send electronic workorders to
field technicians via their RIM BlackberryTM pagers or other
PDA devices. Techs can then update their workorder after leaving
the customer's site, even providing notification that they
have a signed proof of delivery, and send it back to Q360
for faster billing cycles. The potential impact on cash flow
is tremendous with this type of workflow through wireless
document management.
You can even manage and build your knowledgebase
on the fly as you conduct your regular work duties. This knowledgebase
can be utilized by front-line call takers or by customers
logged into the eService web site.
No matter how a customer chooses to contact
your company the staff member servicing them will have the
tools to make it a good experience.
- Service calls can be created using
customer or equipment records. This allows users to effectively
create and manage jobs with ease and flexibility.

throughout it's life cycle. Warning or exception queues
