Abstract
Phoenix Petroleum is a publicly-listed company from Davao, Philippines that primarily provides top-performing fuel products. As a relatively new but aggressive player in the industry, the company wanted to focus on delivering the best customer experiences to quickly grow its market share and establish a reputation for excellent customer service.
The company decided to invest in a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system to improve the operations team’s efficiency and effectiveness. NTT DATA was selected to implement the system, and was tasked to complete it within a short timeframe, in time for the launch of Phoenix Petroleum’s Super (78737) one-point contact center on a popular TV show one month later.
Challenges
Phoenix Petroleum’s operations team was facing inefficiencies that prevented them from providing the highest levels of service both to their internal and external customers. They wanted to address the following key issues:
As their chosen partner, NTT DATA Philippines (NDPH) was tasked to rationalize and optimize sales, delivery and billing processes and implement a new CRM that would address Phoenix Petroleum’s challenges. The services included:
Outcomes
Streamlining processes and implementing a new CRM made it easier for operations specialists to comply with operational standards, reducing errors and incomplete logging of case details. It also provided better visibility on customer interactions and case status and even allowed them to escalate cases to sales, if necessary.
The CRM system allowed the support specialists to accurately record and follow through on leads and inquiries. Customers noticed the change and provided positive feedback. The enhanced customer experience led to new potential dealerships and customer referrals, including the conversion of hundreds of competing LPG cylinders to Phoenix Super LPG within a few weeks of launching the 78737 hotline.
Phoenix Petroleum has taken significant steps towards strengthening its reputation for excellent customer service and continues to expand the capabilities of its CRM system to further enhance the experience of its growing base of customers.
