McGill’s Bus Group has invested in EPM Bus Solutions technology to transform its customer service function to build patronage.
Developed by EPM specifically for the bus sector, Customer Resolution Centre (CRC) is designed to accelerate customer service response times by providing complete visibility of the operating environment, enabling customer service teams to manage queries efficiently.
CRC integrates data from wider group systems to investigate complaints quickly, such as EPM’s Bus Incident Reporting Screen (BIRS), which identifies incidents on the network, and other third-party systems. This is intended to ensure the customer service team members are working with reliable and up to date information to enable them to provide quick and clear customer communications.
In addition, the system is designed to streamline the data capture process of passenger queries coming in. With a varied demographic of bus passengers, feedback into operators comes through from a number of channels – the operator’s website, email and social media platforms. CRC consolidates data from multiple online sources along with more traditional communication methods, such as face-to-face and telephone, to reduce the time spent recording customer interactions and ensuring accurate collection of data.
The system provides a personalised engagement approach, communicating with the customer via their chosen channel in an effort to provide a quality and consistent customer experience.
