Shift in Focus
This is because:-
1. Increased Competition.2. Threat of substitutes in form of cheaper products.3. Loss of huge amount of revenue in the after sales market.

Responsiveness – Customer requirement is maximum up-time
for equipment and timely delivery of service Reminder call to customers before expiry of
CSA Service number availability with consumer. Taking feedback from the customer after
every service. The time taken by company to act on the
complaint.
Empathy – Customization of service Conduct of the people Employee Empowerment
![Page 23: Caterpilar Ppt g42](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012313/54fdb51e4a7959055e8b46a3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Assurance – The technical know how of the people who are
involved in service process Ability to instill confidence in the customer.
Reliability – Representative should be able to correctly
identify and delegate the issue. Service men should be able to report to the site
within the promised time(quantifiable).
Tangibles – The tools and servicing equipments used Technology used

Other issues
Improper Segmentation◦Company segmented based on do it
myself, do it with me, do it for me but some of the general construction companies were large enough to qualify for ‘Do it for me’ segment.
![Page 30: Caterpilar Ppt g42](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012313/54fdb51e4a7959055e8b46a3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Different CSA’s to the different segments?
General Construction CompaniesLarge Medium Small

little standard services
Flat Monthly/Yearly subscription

Less customized +
Basic standard services
Cost for the type of service performed or
Operating hours
Do it myself
Less customized with more emphasis on consultation, information dissemination,
diagnosis , READILY available service team and finance if required + Offer Inspection
CSA’s so that client can compare himself if he needs
service.
Service Charge at heavy discount.

Service Design & Standard Gaps
Poor Service Design
• Few CSAs• CSAs were not branded• CSAs were created in an
ad hoc manner
Customer Driven
Standards
• Promised but expectations not met
• Operationally focused not customer driven
Inadequate physical
evidence and service escape
• Customer Interact with sales people
• what to offer and what to deliver
• Contries: Culture, law, structure
GAP 2
The Servic
e designs and
standards gap
![Page 33: Caterpilar Ppt g42](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012313/54fdb51e4a7959055e8b46a3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Issues brought ahead Creation of CSA’s was in ad hoc manner as it did not
mostly considered timing, peace of mind, risk reduction etc of customers. Also customers were often located far off (so standard setting gets difficult)
They varied across dealerships. Difficulties in keeping track of what had been
promised. (This gives rise to service non performance and consequently service recovery)
Sales ppl were not the employees who delivered on CSA. They were unsure of what to offer.
Performance standards were operationally focused and not customer focused.
Cultural issues Silos
![Page 34: Caterpilar Ppt g42](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022012313/54fdb51e4a7959055e8b46a3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Setting the standards
To close GAP 2, standards set by the company must be based on customer requirements and expectations rather than just on internal company goals.
SO Customer defined standard Hard standards and Hard measurement
◦ 10 minutes response time from concerned Service centre◦ 4 hours for a service person to arrive◦ Call back to all missed calls◦ 99% calls served
Soft standard and soft measurement◦ Empathize
◦ Human Voice
◦ Etiquettes
In soft measurement – SERVQUAL and relationship and post service and trailer calls
Building a Service Blueprint It should be adhered to strictly.

Get everyone learn and deliver about them
Separate training for product and service dealers. They have to be trained in understanding the customer requirements through his past records , empathy and customer research/background.
This gives rise to 2 other factors that need to be built in:-◦ ERP/CRM/DB sharing across the entire Caterpillar.◦ Employee empowerment in extending and offering the services.
Employee reward schemes/performance based bonus appraisals. Internal audits and checks Inventory control systems in place for both product and service
dealers. E.g JIT, VMS Readily available brochures and informational guides for quick
reference. Video that will give respondents the true sense of services and
capabilities offered. Automated reminder about services. Manufacturing products with the important attributes as found out in
the research.
