Are you running the most cost effective Service Desk?

It’s a well proven fact that “Best in Class” service desks are less costly to run.  HDI, an international organization specializing in help desks, service desks, and support centers  has studied well run desks in great detail. They have collated their findings to present the requirements on how to deliver the best service.

By comparing your operation to the standards collected from the best desks in the industry, you can meet the two most important objectives of your desk: to deliver Great Service at a Reduced Cost.

Our expertise and consulting focuses on the following key areas:

Support Centre Start-Up

Get up and running, faster and more efficiently! It is so much easier to do it right the first time than to live with an ineffective help desk or go through the trauma of repairing a dysfunctional desk. When building a new desk, a wonderful opportunity exists to make it a “best in class” operation that performs better and costs less. “Begin with the end in mind”

But what are the critical components to be considered?

HDI has studied desks around the world and along input from practitioners  has gathered the standards and processes that have been the hallmarks of superior service. By including these components and standards into your help desk from the beginning, you are assured of being on the path to success.

Hiring practices, training, operational statistics, SLAs and OLAs are all included in the standards. Why make all the mistakes everyone else has learned from when you can gain from those of others.

Let RADAR guide you through the planning and implementation of your new operation, with standards, practices and processes garnered from years of experience and through HDI.  RADAR has implemented new help desks including ACDs, space, furniture, ergonomics, call processes and training. Call the experts and avoid costly oversights and expensive “learning opportunities”.
