01 — CLIENT OVERVIEW
Redefining the Consumer After-Sales Experience
A major global consumer products distributor wanted to build a centralized digital platform to modernize the post-purchase consumer experience.
The distributor managed consumer interactions across multiple channels, resulting in scattered data, increased support workloads, and limited visibility into customer ownership and service history.
Decimal Technologies streamlined the customer lifecycle by designing and developing a tailored customer support and warranty management platform.
02 — THE CHALLENGE
A service level not reflected in their digital presence.
The client’s growing customer base presented a number of challenges to the client’s operations.
Manual Warranty Registration
Without a centralized platform for product registration and warranty activation, validating ownership and managing warranties was challenging.
High Customer Support Dependency
Customer support teams were burdened by the volume of customer inquiries for product setup and troubleshooting.
Disconnected Customer Data
Customer data, purchase and warranty data, and customer support interactions were stored in disparate systems, limiting visibility and constraining operations.
Unmanaged Complaint Handling
A proper complaint handling system was absent, which caused delays in addressing customer complaints and resulted in a frustratingly inconsistent experience for customers.
Need for Scalability
A scalable, customer-centric platform was required to support a growing customer base.
