The global marketplace is rapidly changing towards customer-centricity and businesses must evolve to differentiate their service experience and thrive in a global ecosystem. Post-sale services, including warranty management, have always been a critical interaction point with customers. These interactions have primarily been perceived as a cost center by many manufacturers.
In this workshop, you will be able to benchmark with other global manufacturers and identify the best practices to help your organization shift your warranty management business towards a customer-focused, cost-reducing model while optimizing your internal processes to better adapt to the ever-demanding, ever-evolving customer and service landscape.
