Tools for implementingour strategy
Service Charter
Ricardo De La Vega Alemparte
Three main points ………… to implement
1. Why ?
2. How ?
3. Which values ? (or how to involve our workforce)
Usually, managers are just really worried about tools, but it is not enough to have tools, we also need to determine points one and three
What do we find in the beginning?
Resistance against change
• We are really good now• Any customer is really upset for the regular quality level of the service we are offering • We currently have a nice amount of work (don´t need any extra, thanks!)• We are lacking resources to make it happen
• We do not have the knowledge• nor the trust
• nor the empowerment
• “I just don´t feel like doing that…” (laziness)
We need ideas to make things happen
First Idea
We live in a world of services
Organizations are made of people working together to serve other people
Our workforce makes possible to achieve our mission (and just they…)
Customer is the most important part of our system
We can define Service Quality as a capacity to reach properly or even to excel
our customer’s expectations.
Satisfied or unsatisfied
We are actors / actresses and spectators are staring at us…
…and they have an opinion about us
When are we going to be satisfied?How do we measure our reality?
Are we going to adopt our customers’ criteria?
If our viewpoints do not match, we are in trouble!!
Second Idea
What does make a product different from a service
?
Things we can not do with a service:
• Put it in a shelve or store it waiting to be released• We are not able to do it equal again and again • We can not touch it• It is not as simple as measuring its performance (correct or not)
Moreover:
• A service is offered and consumed simultaneously (a “take away” paradigm)• Customer takes an important role in giving birth a service
Are we making our customers get lost in a labyrinth?
Haga el favor de poner atención en la primera cláusula porque es muy importante. Dice que... la parte contratante de la primera parte será considerada como la parte contratante de la primera parte. ¿Qué tal, está muy bien, eh?
No, eso no está bien. Quisiera volver a oírlo. Dice que... la parte contratante de la primera parte será considerada como parte contratante de la primera parte.
Esta vez creo que suena mejor.
Si quiere se lo leo otra vez.
Tan solo la primera parte.
¿Sobre la parte contratante de la primera parte?

Third idea
Why managing services can become so complicated?
A customer does not know necessarily what is he/she looking for
And this is our main duty, to identify his/her necessity
Transfer (no action) Transaction (participation)
Interaction’s Intensity and contact’s length
To start a process up
PH
Information
Travelinteraction
lenght
Short Long
soft
strong
Main rule: the higher the two parameters are, the more possible is to fail to fulfil the customer’s needs.
Higher Risk
Two variables for achieving a peak performance
CO-PRODUCTION
Customer and producer make the service possible, working together
Fourth Idea
People have got expectations and necessities.
They value our service positively if the service meets his/hers expectations, not ours.
We MUST measure the VALUE we are generating
What do customers want?
Some examplesSome examples
Barómetro sanitario 2006
Barómetro sanitario 2006
Barómetro Sanitario 2006
Specialised assistance is valued lower for its seriousness.
Fifth Idea
What is our workforce thinking against us?
Do they trust in us?Do they think we act upon them fairly?
Can we count on them? Why not?
So
We need a service strategy
to create value for our customers
Looking at our mission, we must
Identify who is our customer
What do we want to offer him
How and how well we want to deliver our services
How to create a service strategy through a service charter
Do you know your customers
necessities?
InterviewFocus groups
Survey
NO
YES
Have you defined what do you want to offer?
NO
Service charter
Employees survey
NO
Do you know what do employees think about it?
YES
A really good way .........................
Performance Feedback
How to know
and not to guess
• Using a Survey
A tool to measure the customer’s level satisfaction
Other tools:• Focus Group• Critical Incident (Flanagan)
A very useful theory
SERVQUAL
SERVQUALWe can understand the services through 5 dimensions:
1. What you can see - tangibility -2. Reliability – to keep your statement up -3. Response capacity – to serve quickly -4. Trust - to be kind -5. Empathy –to adopt customer’s point of view -
We need to observe the service performance under a subjective perspective, not only objective !

Service Charter - SC -
Is a way to give expression to our commitments with our customers.
• In a tangible way – we MUST measure it • To be clear and respectful with our customers• No subjectivity allowed!
We can use it to transfer the customer’s requirements into service specifications
Road Map
1. Define main purpose2. Define team and time duration3. Define scope (customer)4. Identify services5. Identify attributes 6. Establish compromises7. Identify compromise indicator
(between what is desired and what is possible)
8. Design it9. Manage it10.Improve it
A service is any unit of activity available to be requested for our customer
Is a unit that a customer can order, but is it not a part of our work !
To repair a PC
As changing parts of a pc
An Attribute is
A characteristic or trait that is visible to a customer
For example, we will deliver you’re a pizza in less than 30 minutes
Now, we need a commitment’s declaration
