This case study illustrates how <strong>INGO addressed and solved the challenges of a customer who needed to streamline its support processes<\/strong> by implementing a centralized SPOC (Single Point of Contact) and leveraging <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/en\/blog\/news\/evolved-ivr-customer-experience-and-customer-satisfaction\/\">advanced IVRs<\/a><\/strong> to automate escalation, with continuous and multilingual coverage. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is the client company<\/h2>\n\n<p>The customer is a key player in the industrial, service, and facility management sectors. A <strong>technology leader in electrification and automation<\/strong>, it is committed to shaping a more sustainable and efficient future in resource management. By combining engineering expertise and software solutions, the company optimizes production, handling, power and resource utilization. With a <strong>tradition of excellence spanning more than 140 years<\/strong>, its <strong>more than 110,000 employees<\/strong> are committed to driving innovations that accelerate industrial transformation.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What were the client&#8217;s needs<\/h2>\n\n<p>The client turned to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/en\/contact-us\/\">INGO<\/a><\/strong>, its long-standing supplier, because <strong>it wanted to optimize its customer care<\/strong> with a project that was designed specifically for its business needs.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For what reason did the company contact INGO<\/h3>\n\n<p>The company&#8217;s overall goal was to <strong>completely rationalize the various fragmented service channels<\/strong>, entrusting them to a single point of contact responsible for handling all requests, leveraging customizable IVRs and automation.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What were the needs of the company?<\/h3>\n\n<p>At the time the client asked INGO to set up a project, the issues to be solved were very clear: on the one hand, <strong>the volumes of service requests fluctuated greatly<\/strong>, creating moments of overload followed by periods of relative calm that made it difficult to right-size resources; on the other hand, it was <strong>constrained by rigid procedures that had to be followed 100 percent<\/strong> to ensure high quality standards and regulatory compliance. It also had the need to<strong> handle calls in multiple languages<\/strong>.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What services did he need and what were the goals set?<em>  <\/em><\/h3>\n\n<p>By doing an analysis together with the client, four basic needs were identified that were driving the request:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>first, <strong>we needed a SPOC (Single Point of Contact) with automated management<\/strong>, capable of sorting incoming requests according to predefined rules and tracking every interaction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>second, this system had to be in operation continuously, with a <strong>24-hour garrison for all 365 days of the year<\/strong>, without exception.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>standardized procedures had to be followed 100 percent<\/strong> to comply with current regulations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>finally, it had to be able to <strong>handle customers in different languages<\/strong>, providing a smooth and professional experience regardless of the user&#8217;s geographic origin.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6855\" style=\"width: 750px;\" src=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/01-Case-EN@2x.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What INGO has achieved<\/h2>\n\n<p>The project approach was systematic and divided into well-defined phases:<\/p>\n\n<p>It began <strong>by establishing clear rules of engagement<\/strong>, with a focus on escalation protocols for contact persons on call in case of emergencies or critical situations. This made it possible to create a quick and efficient response system for even the most complex issues. <\/p>\n\n<p>Next, <strong>contact channels were precisely defined<\/strong>, ensuring that each entry point was integrated into the centralized system and that no request could &#8220;get lost&#8221; between touchpoints.<\/p>\n\n<p>The next step was the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/en\/services\/technology\/contact-center-software\/\">creation of the process and verification of the necessary tools<\/a><\/strong>. INGO meticulously analyzed each step of the customer journey, identifying the most appropriate technological tools to support each stage and implementing <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/en\/blog\/case-study\/case-study-how-ivr-and-voicebot-improved-customer-care-for-a-consumer-electronics-company\/\">advanced IVRs<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>Prior to full implementation, <strong>extensive testing of the systems was conducted<\/strong>, simulating different scenarios and volumes of requests to ensure that the solution was robust and scalable.<\/p>\n\n<p>Finally, <strong>a detailed reporting system was developed<\/strong> that would enable the client to constantly monitor performance and make evidence-based decisions.<\/p>\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6871\" style=\"width: 750px;\" src=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/03-Case-EN@2x.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Achievements<\/h2>\n\n<p>The move to a centralized system managed by INGO brought tangible and immediate results.  <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The most significant figure was the <strong>average economic saving of 30%<\/strong> due to optimization and control of service costs.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Another key benefit was the ability to <strong>clearly prioritize interventions<\/strong>, ensuring that resources were always optimally allocated and that the most urgent requests received the immediate attention they needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Perhaps the most important result, from a quality perspective, was the <strong>achievement of 100 percent intervention intake or appropriate escalation<\/strong>. This means that no request went unanswered, even at peak times, ensuring a consistent and reliable customer experience. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>With well-defined uniform escalation rules<strong>, INGO has created an integrated system that links all touchpoints into a single customer care platform.<\/strong> Flows are constantly tested and monitored, and the customer is given detailed reports that provide a complete and transparent view of the service. It is thanks to this profound optimization that the group can now guarantee<strong>fast service that fully complies with the highest quality standards in the industry<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6859\" style=\"width: 500px;\" src=\"https:\/\/ingo.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/02-Case-EN@2x.webp\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusions<\/h2>\n\n<p>The <strong>project implemented by INGO<\/strong> demonstrates how a structured approach to customer care management can turn a critical business issue into a competitive advantage. Through the centralization and<strong> automation of processes<\/strong> with advanced IVRs, the client company achieved not only significant economic savings, but also a qualitative improvement in the service offered to its international customers. <br\/>The results achieved &#8211; a 30 percent savings and 100 percent intake of requests &#8211; testify to the effectiveness of INGO&#8217;s approach and the added value it can bring to companies operating in complex international environments. <\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This case study illustrates how INGO helped a client optimize its customer care by creating centralized management of inquiries in multiple languages, available 24\/7.
