Their experience is the most critical aspect for a successful <strong>Service<\/strong> management. And not only for that.<\/p>\n<p>For the resources whose role is the <strong>Service Desk<\/strong>, it\u2019s a reason to reach an higher efficiency in the managed activities, higher motivation to accomplish their tasks, improve performances in the service provision.<\/p>\n<p>And also a will to create <strong>value<\/strong> for their <strong>users<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The main goals of the <strong>Service Desk<\/strong> that is <strong>user<\/strong>-centric are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>to give <strong>value<\/strong> to the business, keeping solidity and continuity in the provision of the services;<\/li>\n<li>to guarantee a constant <strong>productivity<\/strong>, promptly responding with efficacy to the <strong>users<\/strong> <strong>expectations<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The service\u2019s valorization is directly proportional to the improvement of the <strong>users experience<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The type of <strong>experience<\/strong> is linked to the level of the service received.<\/p>\n<p>According to our knowledge and experience on the technological and planning field, we can find 5 fundamental points that are helpful <strong>to improve the services delivered to users<\/strong>. Giving the proper consideration to these points means be conscious of the future value and positive consequences.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Let\u2019s start with <strong>Customer Journey<\/strong>. The best way to guarantee a satisfying experience for the <strong>users<\/strong> is to direct their <strong>experience<\/strong>. How? Foreseeing and planning the route of the requests, guaranteeing that each contact channel provides continuity and quality of the service. The Customer Journey mapping allows to check the efficacy of the service provided, arranging some elements that can measure the user satisfaction.<\/li>\n<li>Let\u2019s go on with <strong>Self Service Portal<\/strong>. Is it able to improve the users experience in this context? Definitely! A number of tasks that the <strong>Service Desk<\/strong> daily manages can be transferred to the users, thanks to a portal which is intuitive, fast, easy to use and that can quickly solve many frequent problems and shared with the past experiences.<\/li>\n<li>Let\u2019s consider the improvement of the <strong>Knowledge Base<\/strong>. The guarantee for the success of the <strong>Self Service<\/strong> processes mainly derive from <strong>Knowledge<\/strong>, shared between the users, constantly organized and optimized by the Service team. It\u2019s necessary to verify that the solutions, suggestions, notices about common situations are always updated and at disposal for the <strong>Service Desk<\/strong>, thereby for the users.<\/li>\n<li>We should pay more attention to <strong>users<\/strong> before supposing a processes scenario. We can\u2019t give priority to procedures instead of a request resolution where nowadays the importance is given the user\u2019s satisfaction. They are the <strong>Service Desk<\/strong>\u2019s focus, our arbiter, our goal. The service\u2019s governance should give value to the user, putting their necessities, needs and timings as priorities. Starting from this let\u2019s move on and create a perfect situation based on his expectations.<\/li>\n<li>Let\u2019s think about Service\u2019s <strong>KPI<\/strong> adopting the user\u2019s perspective. Different metrics and values that can be easy or complex can help us to measure every aspect and each performance of the Service Desk. We realized that often companies pay more attention to the report construction instead of the results generated that need to be analyzed. So why shouldn\u2019t we be oriented to create only few and concrete KPI that can describe in detail the quality of the service delivered to the users and the quality of their experience?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>An excellent <strong>users experience<\/strong> not only concern a high efficiency and speed in the resolution of the problems.<\/p>\n<p>Having at disposal appropriate<strong> technology<\/strong> for the support of this goal is fundamental.
