Challenges
Lack of a dedicated system to store customer data:
- Customer Interaction data was stored in silos, separately among different customer service team members
- Customer interaction data present in external tools such as Microsoft Outlook and IGMS was tracked in different Excel sheets, resulting in unstructured customer data storage
Difficulty in tracking a large number of customer interactions:
- Reliance on Excel for interaction tracking, lacking integration with Outlook and IGMS
- Communication barriers when multiple teams were involved in resolving customer queries
- It was thus very difficult to track over 10,000 customer e-mails per day
Regulatory changes:
- Data Privacy concerns regarding usage of Aadhar no. was a major challenge in recent years
- Integration with the IRDA's IGMS portal was needed for better complaint tracking and management
Solutions
Extensible and flexible platform:
- Business users and IT users can configure and manage business process workflows
- Customer E-Mails are now directly logged in Talisma system. Integrated Email ticket resolution within CRM system makes it easy for agents to access customer data and understand customer issues easily
- The Customer Service solution was integrated with IGMS portal. Interactions were automatically created in the Talisma system, once a complaint was received in the IGMS portal
Regulatory compliance and customer privacy:
- Aadhar details of customers are masked, wherein agents cannot see the Customer's Aadhar no. mentioned in the interactions
Benefits
Single unified platform to capture customer data:
- Single unified platform for the Customer Service Group to access customer interaction history from purchase to grievance history, across 10,000 interactions per day
- Single point of access to important customer details such as customer requests, customer interactions, policy no. and tenure information
- The solution is used by multiple departments within AVIVA, apart from Customer Service and Operations
- Even branch offices have easy access to customer data, making branch operations more efficient.
- Customer grievances on the IGMS portal seamlessly flow into the CRM
Customer service processes are now agent-independent:
- Agents can access the entire history of customer past interactions
- This makes it easier for agents to understand customer issues
Regulatory compliance and customer privacy:
- With Aadhar masking, agents cannot have access to the Customer's Aadhar no. mentioned in interactions. This ensures data privacy of customers
- Integration of the CRM with IRDA's IGMS portal
Faster closure of customer requests and complaints:
- Aviva has control to define SLA's and escalation matrix based on the nature of the leads.
- More than 90% TAT compliance was achieved, which is respectable as per industry standards
Provide consistent customer experience:
- Enquiries and complaints captured through various channels such as mail & IGMS are tracked to resolution using single platform
Ability to configure and manage CRM process workflows:
- This enables automatic assignment of customer queries to the relevant teams and agents
