Organizations providing services are facing unique challenges due to the coronavirus pandemic requiring physical distancing and limited contact. The document outlines three critical steps for service organizations to take: 1) Protect employees and customers through safety measures, clear communication, and redesigning processes for remote work where possible. 2) Stabilize a suddenly virtual workforce by providing tools, infrastructure, security protocols for working from home. 3) Manage fluctuating service demands and expectations through actions like payment flexibility, targeted pricing, and renegotiating service levels to prioritize customer needs. Looking ahead, organizations must also rapidly assess changing demand and match supply accordingly while building resilience and flexibility into their operations.
From Complexity and Frustration to Simplicity and Effectiveness it is the most viable foundation for discovering new opportunities that build momentum and inspire growth.
The insurance industry is highly competitive and regulated, leading companies to consolidate, reduce costs through efficiency, and comply with numerous state statutes. Technology is increasingly used to expedite claim processing, including e-forms, e-medical records from healthcare providers, and data analytics to identify trends and potential fraud. Resources are also changing as companies allow telecommuting to attract talent, reduce costs, and improve retention, though guidelines define expectations for remote employees.

The document discusses the key shifts underway in the insurance industry as it transitions to a digital model. Empowered consumers demanding personalized experiences, innovative competitors, and new technologies are driving insurers to move from a policy-centric model to one focused on the customer. Insurers must utilize data and analytics to develop new products that anticipate customer needs and can be purchased through any channel. They also need to build ecosystems of partners and modernize legacy systems to keep pace with these changes and remain competitive in the digital insurance landscape.
Greg Gianforte argues that proactive customer service can significantly improve customer satisfaction, cut costs, and provide a competitive advantage over non-proactive competitors. Proactive customer service involves addressing customer issues before customers are aware of them through techniques like proactive messaging to provide information to customers, implementing processes to answer customer questions online, and monitoring service quality. It requires technologies like a knowledge base, email tools, chat, and surveys to track metrics. Making the shift to proactive customer service can enhance business performance even in challenging economic times.
Communications advances are touching every industry and enabling new ways of connecting people. Video is becoming more integral to daily life as people interact in richer ways. Businesses are using real-time analytics of customer conversations and social media to fine-tune customer experiences. Organizations also face decisions around public versus private clouds and whether to use managed communications services. The integration of unified communications and mobility is expected to further boost productivity.

The document discusses how the customer relationship has changed in the digital era. There is now greater transparency, giving customers more information and control. This transparency puts pressure on companies to ensure their brand promise and customer experience are closely aligned. Companies must make operational changes to deliver on the brand promise and meet evolving customer needs and expectations. While technology has changed interactions, fundamental customer needs remain the same - companies need to focus on both adapting to new technologies and strengthening relationships through excellent operational execution.
The Changing Nature of the Customer Relationship by North HighlanddBrooke Novak
Things have changed with the way the customer experience is enacted. Success has less to do with big strategic decisions and more to do with practical, everyday operational decisions – and then getting them implemented. Customers have more control – much more. Product information, peer reviews and ratings, even competitors are all just a click away. This increased transparency puts brand promises to the test. And, whether you are B2C or B2B, your customers have become accustomed to personalized services, relevant and personalized offers, and customizable capabilities. All on demand. How do you meet these demands – let alone exceed them? This paper explores considerations on how to harness the power of digital information on the front line of the customer relationship to power your competitive edge through to your bottom line.
This document discusses how moving to a true cloud-based ERP system can help healthcare providers succeed by improving efficiency. It notes that digital transformation in healthcare is being driven by consumer demand for better experiences. While many providers have adopted some new technologies, successful digital transformation requires integrating across departments. The document argues that a cloud-based ERP can eliminate silos by providing real-time, centralized access to financial, HR, supply chain and other data. Key benefits mentioned include improved decision-making, better talent management, and increased productivity. Examples are provided of healthcare providers that have boosted efficiency and outcomes by implementing a cloud ERP system.
This document summarizes a study on the importance of e-brand trust towards customer engagement in digital transformation. The study found that while organizations spend billions on digital transformation to improve customer experiences, trust is critical for digital relationships and driving revenue. Digital connections are still human relationships, so trust forms the foundation for any digital exchange, as it does for personal transactions. The study reviewed literature showing that customers expect customized experiences and will switch providers if not met, breaking trust. It also found that creating trust in the digital world is difficult as organizations must consistently deliver trust across many digital touchpoints. The purpose of the study was to provide insights on the impact of e-brand trust on digital platforms and propose avenues for future research. It followed

2. With the humanitarian crisis from coronavirus
evolving on a daily basis, businesses are grappling
with how to continue serving their customers and
communities around the world.
The task is uniquely challenging for industries that
rely heavily on in-person interaction, including a
wide swath of sectors from banking and insurance
to hospitality, telecommunications, and industrial
services. Physical distancing, reduction of
nonessential operations, and limited contact are
fundamental in protecting human health—and
raise fundamental challenges about how these
organizations can continue to reach customers and
meet their expectations.
Organizations are responding quickly. Several
near-term actions are especially important to
safeguard lives, support work-from-home (WFH)
measures, and manage service expectations from
both customers and partners. These practical steps
are crucial for near-term effectiveness and the
minimization of distribution in operations.
At the same time, amid uncertainty, service
organizations will need flexibility for the duration
of both the current public-health interventions
and the eventual economic recovery. Businesses
must prepare themselves to excel in a world where
today’s emergency becomes a changed way of
doing business.
What service organizations should
do now
We see three steps as critical to helping service
organizations adjust to the next normal in the
immediate term.
Protect your people and customers
The first, immediate requirement is to take care
of employees and the customers they serve
by protecting everyone’s security and safety.
Organizations are already following public-health
authorities’ recommendations, implementing
contactless processes, increasing physical distance,
instituting temperature checks, and issuing
personal protective equipment (PPE) whenever
possible. Although progress is not uniform, the
process shows signs of success: companies’ robust
physical-distancing and PPE strategies increasingly
mean that if an employee tests positive for the
coronavirus, overnight cleaning, rather than days
or weeks of shutdown, may be sufficient to ensure
workplace safety.
The pandemic has also introduced a disruptive
level of emotional stress on the workforce.
Consequently, the need for thoughtful, clear, simple
communications is acute. Candor matters more
than charisma in strengthening trust, and leaders at
every level can role model empathy and openness.
With people seeking stronger connections in
navigating the crisis, now is the time for leaders to
articulate a vision that infuses meaning into the work
an organization is doing and the future it wants to
achieve. Successful leaders are frequently asking
questions such as “How are you feeling?” and “How
can I help you?” When this behavior is replicated at
every level of an organization, companies can create
a standard of care that fosters a sense of stability at
the front line.
Some businesses are thoroughly reexamining their
operations, questioning long-held views about
which in-person steps truly add value over remote
options. Certain lenders, for example, no longer
require appraisers to enter a home, substituting
digital field visits through photos and live video.
When in-person visits are unavoidable, the critical
task for business leaders is to understand all
the relevant interactions, whether internal, with
customers, or among customers. That will allow
companies to identify the risks at each step through
the entire journey and establish clear principles
and practices so that the organizations can rapidly
redesign processes and communicate and deploy
expected behaviors.
One telecommunications provider has emphasized
speed as well as safety in redesigning its service
model. An internal communications campaign
2 Coronavirus’ impact on service organizations: Weathering the storm
3. emphasized how important fieldworkers have
become in keeping people working, while a new
home-visit script laid out every step in the process,
from ringing the doorbell (stepping back to allow
distance from the customer) to closing the work
order (exchanging text messages rather than
requiring a signature).
Stabilize a suddenly virtual workforce
WFH needs have now reached well beyond the
scope of roles and duration of activities that
most organizations have ever contemplated. As
companies “virtualized” workforces overnight, it
became evident that WFH looks very different
in large, core operations functions than in many
corporate roles. There are some critical focus areas
for stabilizing a newly virtualized workforce so that it
can be effective, efficient, and secure.
Tools and infrastructure. Even organizations that
have invested heavily in mobility (through laptops,
VPNs, videoconferencing, and “virtualization”
tools) are discovering the limits of robustness
when supporting the whole organization. In many
organizations, core operations roles handling field
activities, paper-based processes, and customer-
care or back-office functions are not yet fully
enabled to WFH. Chief information officers (CIOs)
and COOs can partner to prioritize how to effectively
use these resources and stabilize their operations.
One best practice is to establish a remote-
operations war room, staffed with agile teams that
can rapidly redesign processes and tools to support
remote work through steps such as implementing
off-the-shelf cloud-based workflow tools. Daily
30-minute CIO–COO decision calls are helping
organizations expedite alignment on the major
process and policy changes necessary to support
service changes, such as e-signatures, WFH
security protocols, and expanded online channels.
Security of critical processes and systems. With
core operations that suddenly became virtual,
security and risk are major questions to address—
especially for colleagues with access to sensitive
financial, health, or identity data. In a bank branch,
tellers who leave customer-account files open
on their computer screens do not pose much risk.
However, if they are working in apartments with
roommates, it is a much more plausible threat.
Continually refining WFH processes and policies
can help ensure that employees have secure access
only to the information they need to do their jobs.
Simple technology fixes, such as improved access
to security teams, stronger authentication protocols,
and tighter enforcement of screen locks can all
be part of the solution. But human factors also
deserve attention: when well designed, they make
it easier and more likely for people to comply. For
example, managers can establish a structure for
decision making and effective communication so
that employees can readily raise security concerns.
Extra training in data security and confidentiality
can also help reinforce a culture that prioritizes
those issues.
Manage service-level expectations and contracts
For many organizations, the unfolding crisis
has caused shifts in customer demand that are
unprecedented in both magnitude and suddenness.
Organizations are rushing to reorient, seeking
to respond to the fluctuating dynamics while
maintaining efficiency—even as revenues and cash
flow become unpredictable as well.
Our discussions with major service providers
indicate that, to date, one of the basic responses
to near-term demand pressures—simply
communicating the availability of “COVID-19-
related enhanced service levels” to customers—
has not been enough to stabilize demand. To
keep customers in the fold, there are a number
of additional actions that companies can take.
Extended payment terms, for instance, provide
customers with more short-term liquidity, while
targeted discounted pricing for customer segments
with higher risk of churn can help preserve long-
term revenue streams. A few companies are finding
that more-for-more offers, designed for customers
and segments that are still spending (such as
in healthcare or consumer goods), can deepen
relationships for the future.

4. Significant near-term service-level challenges
are becoming increasingly common for service
organizations, as well, either in the commitments
they have made to their customers or in the
expectations they have of service partners (such
as business-process providers and IT vendors).
Some enterprises are finding that renegotiating
desired service levels and time frames can be
more productive than renegotiating penalties,
as it more quickly resolves the question of the
support the client needs. This approach appears to
resonate with customers. One industrial-services
company, for example, is proactively migrating its
clientele from planned-maintenance to predictive-
maintenance contracts—a model that more
effectively prioritizes service visits based on need
and risk.
How to manage through
mid-term uncertainty
Even as the immediate changes are still under way,
organizations are beginning to prepare themselves
for an uncertain recovery and potential for a
significantly different next normal. Organizations
must build resilience in their operations, evaluate
how their demands could evolve, and create plans
with flexibility and agility.
Rapidly assess demand and match supply
Through the coronavirus crisis, few industries have
escaped sudden and significant demand shocks. For
airlines, grounded planes have massively reduced
handling and maintenance activities, while customer-
care centers have been overwhelmed with changes,
cancellations, and tasks of getting passengers
home. At retail banks, branch networks are reducing
hours, and call centers are taking up slack. In this
context, organizations can accelerate their sales-
and operational-planning cadence from monthly to
weekly while deploying advanced analytics for faster
identification of demand trends and enabling faster
decision making for resource redeployment, hazard
pay, and related capacity decisions.
When possible, service organizations can act to
spread and move demand to use capacity that is
now unexpectedly available. For example, today’s
downtime can be used to pull forward scheduled
maintenance, inspections, and repairs—all steps
that can help reduce future downtime as customer
demand increases.
Once the potential demand is understood,
organizations can begin to tackle the task of getting
their supply to match—and creating flexibility in their
operations. For some service organizations, such as
in grocery, pharmacy, and logistics, that need has
already driven rapid hiring and the implementation
of hazard pay to secure frontline capacity. In other
service sectors, cross-skilling and thoughtfully
redeploying staff provide important flexibility for
ramping up operations during a recovery and can
keep people engaged who might otherwise find
alternative employment.
For many organizations, the unfolding
crisis has caused shifts in customer
demand that are unprecedented in
both magnitude and suddenness.

5. Enhance the virtual workforce
Beyond immediate WFH needs, a prolonged
restriction on in-person activities would affect
common workforce activities significantly. Such
activities include the regular cadence of teamwork
and performance management, employee capability
building and training, and recruiting and hiring.
For many organizations, developing a strong virtual-
management cadence will be a significant effort,
but it will be critical should the policy response be
extended. The reengineered working model would
likely include redesigning the regular cadences of
the day, week, and month and rethinking how teams
work together and how performance is managed—all
with the goal of maintaining employee engagement.
One particularly challenging activity to transition is
coaching and feedback, which were often done ad
hoc. Extra dedication, through the use of video one-
on-one meetings and virtual team huddles, can help
maintain focus on performance management while
also fostering connectedness and engagement.
Weekly or biweekly ask-me-anything sessions
with senior leaders and virtual town halls should be
stepped up to ensure clear expectations, provide
positive communications, and help fight feelings of
burnout and isolation. And digital capability-building
activities, together with remote mentorship and
coaching, can help an organization prepare for the
next normal.
Begin the digital scale-up to the next normal
The range of possible outcomes in the next normal
will depend primarily on two sets of factors: the
success of public-health responses in taming
the coronavirus’s impact and the effectiveness
of economic and fiscal levers applied to stabilize
the economy. In certain parts of Asia, for example,
measured actions are allowing some industries to
start to return to operations, while other sectors likely
face significant delays in reassuming full operations.
As new practices take hold to minimize contact
among customers and employees, organizations
can start to reassess their processes and operating
models, both to enable safe scale-up and to
accelerate toward approaches that minimize contact.
That will require looking critically at end-to-end
processes to mitigate risks in improving operational
effectiveness under changing conditions.
First, enabling digital alternatives will be a primary
activity. A lender adopting virtual, video-based
appraisals as a temporary measure could assess
what additional steps would be involved to turn
that into a new and more efficient way of working.
Conversations with partners in other parts of
the value chain, such as real-estate agents and
investors in securitized mortgages, could reveal
additional safeguards to include in the process,
while lessons learned through trial and error will
form the basis for a practical, digital-appraisal
playbook. That sort of experience can replay again
across many core processes that today require
visits—for example, identity verification, digital-
signature use, and in-person assessment.
Companies that have journeys requiring physical
proximity could take a look at their end-to-end
customer journeys and build in more steps that
visibly address safety. That will mean redesigning
the process with increased use of protection and
sanitization for any equipment service, incorporating
contactless interaction whenever possible via
electronic work orders, touchless signatures, and
minimal face-to-face dialogues. As the crisis abates,
this next normal for processes can be distinctive
experiences that increase customer loyalty, as at the
food company that is now emphasizing its hands-
free processes.
For many service organizations, core customer
functions are being squeezed both by an inability
to perform on-site activities, such as paper-based
processing, and by limitations on off-site capacity.
Global service partners face many of the same
operational constraints in scaling up remote work
to provide customer-care or back-office support.
Taking an accelerated approach to process
automation has the potential to alleviate both
challenges—such as at industrial manufacturers
that are now deploying artificial intelligence to
automate warranty claims, reducing both cycle time
