Measurement

Why we feel we understand the issues around
customer satisfaction
We have been carrying out customer service audits, by telephone and face to face interviews, since 1995
6000 interviews have been completed
We always use ‘moments of truth’
Audits are comprehensive but expensive ff |
A web based system is be cheaper
KPI-online was developed and launched (now known as ACE)
Trang 3
And what we do ourselves:
We became quality assured in 1997 and now have ISO 9000: 2000
We aim to capture our clients expectations
in our briefing sheet when we meet the client
We use KPI-online system for getting
We have been using a system for i
capturing improvements since 1996, called _ Worry Notes (now known as PIN Notes)

Trang 4The need for change
Trang 5The issues for a modern efficient and effective
construction industry
The construction industry is not known for focusing on
customers’/end users’ needs
Many of the people who are actually managing construction projects have no experience in doing so Trees
= groups that have been allocated lottery money
They may have an unrealistic idea of what they ae going to get
for their limited budget and may be insufficient
Trang 6But we can help by changing the way we
approach customer satisfaction
To improve, we need to:
understand what is important to each customer
as an individual
measure to give a datum
point to show where
choose a specific person to
be responsible for making sure agreed actions are
carried out
measure continuously to show that improvement has taken place

Trang 7And so we must begin with a measurement
system that asks the right questions
Many companies have
been working with Key
Performance Indicators (KPI's) - but if they get a low score they don't know what to do to improve it
We need to measure things that give us an action list to work against
If people are being scored
and they don’t understand the basis on which they are being scored, it can
be very threatening
They need to understand
what they need to do to
‘score an 8’

Principle 1 Measure in a useful way by
focusing on ‘Moments of Truth’*
A ‘Moment of Truth’ is
anytime a customer comes
into contact with any aspect
of a business, however remote
It is an opportunity to form
an impression
Many ‘Moments of Truth’
are controlled by people
People are probably your
least controllable asset

Murphy s law says, according
to Tom Peters,
»> `'each bad moment of truth
scores 10x against you,
=» but each good moment of truth only scores 1x for you’
in
Trang 9Make the questions into statements which the
Scorer can agree with on a scale of 1-10
Understand what the customer expects
= so that the team can strive
the team is reaching
»> so that the team can identify where its performance is falling short
Focus on the performance gap between the two
=> removes the arbitrariness
of different scoring scales,
1.e what is an 8 out of 10 for one person may be a 6
for another
Perception may not be reality - but that means the issue still exists, but is one
of communication

Trang 15Principle 2 Start off by understanding exactly what is important to your customer BEFORE YOU BEGIN THE PROJECT so that you can:
Identify what the client expects from the project team on each moment of truth
Help the client understand
their role & how they can help improve the way that the project works
This identifies what a 6 or 8
is And more specifically what a 10 is - as this will be best practice
Help all members of the project team to understand their mutual responsibilities
to one another
project team what they
Trang 16If you know what is important to your customer then the measurement should be just
a formality
Discuss with the client what Measurement can be at any

agendas onto the table apart so that improvements
can be made and seen before
easier to meet their needs Reviews look at any issues,
">> measurement becomes Suggested improvements or
course of action
=» make one person responsible for making sure it happens
Trang 17
This means that:
You know which issues need improvement
You identify them early enough to make
improvements
Hidden agendas are
exposed - no late surprises
The project team works co- operatively & cohesively
You know exactly what you
Trang 18Principle 3 Capture issues & develop best practice with the PIN Note system to:
[dentify issues that prevent
a higher level of client satisfaction being achieved
Jointly problem-solve &
agree the likely area to find
a solution
Designate one person to be responsible for finding a solution on a clear
timeframe
Monitor progress Agree the final solution
