We called on InPar to define our strategy of implementing customer service guides and scripts on Galp Energia’s “Client Relations Center” and I can state with satisfaction that the results exceeded our expectations. The team at InPar defined an integrated Knowledge Management platform to support customer service front-end work (which includes guides, scripts and all the complementary information needed by customer service agents), developing a very useful and excellent tool which was broadly accepted and immediately submitted for implementation. InPar is, undoubtedly, an outstanding Portuguese company in its field. |
