Business Challenges  

In fast-emerging markets, a well-defined digital aftersales process is paramount. It ensures adaptability by keeping a holistic check on data. It helps businesses quickly respond to market shifts and evaluate decisions with actionable insights on customer experience. 

In the digital system supporting our client’s sales cycle, the existing warranty data system could not be scaled nor execute timely warranty claims. This affected accurate financial tracking and reporting. The limitations of the current system forced highly manual workarounds for even routine tasks.  

Our client was looking to shift to the cloud for automated service processes, streamlined workflows, and to manage their end-to-end aftersales efficiently. Consequently, they also looked to improve data accuracy and reporting capabilities to support their field teams and initiate customer self-service to improve brand experience. 

In the sustainability industry, success is characterized by rapid innovation. A data-driven aftersales process allows for quick customer service and value-added services. It facilitates the testing of new marketing strategies and customer retention initiatives, that the shift to the cloud presents as an opportunity.  

Legacy System Challenges for Aftersales Services 

Legacy systems pose specific challenges for aftersales operations within a business. These challenges often stem from outdated technology, manual processes for new data elements, and a lack of integration with new age business intelligence features. Some challenges critical for our client were: 

  • Inflexibility and Scalability Issues: Legacy systems do not adapt well to changes in business processes or increasing service demands. Aftersales operations must be scalable to accommodate growth, and our client’s systems were struggling to handle additional transactions or support new services. 
  • Limited Functionality: Legacy systems may lack the advanced features required for modern aftersales processes, such as automation, real-time tracking, and comprehensive analytics. This limitation was affecting the ability to meet customer expectations for efficient and responsive service. 
  • High Maintenance Costs: The cost of maintaining and supporting outdated technology was exorbitant. Legacy systems may require specialized expertise, and finding qualified professionals familiar with older technologies can be challenging and expensive.
