Within Level 1: 
1.1.1 Customer Relationship Management

   

See detailed comments against Level 3 processes later

Within Level 2:
1.1.1.6 Problem Handling

   

See detailed comments against Level 3 processes later

1.1.1.6.1 Isolate Customer Problem

   

Root cause analysis is handled through manual activity based on the problem characteristics. Automated activity is focused on support for this, and communication to other parts of the: system

1.1.1.6.2 Report Customer Problem

   

Management reporting is focused on audit trails.

1.1.1.6.3 Track & Manage Customer Problem

   

Problem Handling process support is focused on trouble ticket operation, and the TT mechanism also supports service and network problems, and links all these where appropriate.

Escalation involves manual activity and this can be tracked through the TT mechanism.

Interaction with Suppliers/Partners is not supported.

1.1.1.6.4 Close Customer Problem Report

   

Closure following confirmation of customer satisfaction is handled manually.

1.1.1.6.5 Create Customer Problem Report

   

Problem Handling process support is focused on trouble ticket operation, and the trouble ticket can be created manually or automatically.

Within Level 2:
1.1.1.5 Order Handling

   

See detailed comments against Level 3 processes later

1.1.1.5.1 Determine Customer Order Feasibility

   

Customized product offerings are supported by adjusting the parameters of standard product offerings, and through combination or decomposition of standard product offerings to construct customized product offerings to meet customer’s customized requirements. This is done manually, by matching customer requirements through the business knowledge of the manual operator, using automated support concerning inventory and other information.

1.1.1.5.2 Authorize Credit

   

Middleware supports a Credit Check API that can be invoked manually, or invoked by any process/function that requires this.

Initiating a credit check is started manually and authorizing credit and credit terms in accordance with established enterprise risk and policy guidelines also is also done manually.

1.1.1.5.4 Track & Manage Customer Order Handling

   

This is realized through middleware that links component systems, and uses a workflow engine to progress end-to-end tracking and processing of customer orders.

Customer order status is modified by monitoring activities through systems dealing with provisioning, billing, inventory etc. If the activity fails in one system, the fail information will be added to the customer order, and if this prevents the order being completed, it is cancelled. If all customer provisioning activities are finished successfully, the customer order status is modified to indicate completion of a customer order.

Track & Manage Customer Order Handling would be realized by automated manner under middleware control.

Escalation and jeopardy handling involves manual activity.

Modifications to customer orders are not supported.

Interaction with Suppliers/Partners is not supported.

1.1.1.5.5 Complete Customer Order

   

Complete Customer Order is handled by the CRM part of the solution. Service orders are derived from the customer order, and one customer order may be decomposed to one or more service order, Complete Customer Order would be initiated when all service orders related to that customer order are finished.

After all the associated service orders have been finalized, the CSR informs the customer about the result, to let the customer test the product and hen collect customer feedback on satisfaction with the product, The CSR also explains the product features and tells customer how to use the product, and finally checks the accuracy of customer information, then converts the order information into customer information.

All these requirements these work are initiated by the CSR manually, either face to face, or via a call center.

1.1.1.5.6 Issue Customer Orders

   

Orders can be issued automatically, based on pre-defined rules, but also can be manually issued.

1.1.1.5.7 Report Customer Order Handling

   

Order status is monitored automatically (and  synchronized amongst the component systems). Management reports and a summaries of the efficiency and effectiveness of the order handling process are generated from this.

1.1.1.5.8 Close Customer Order

   

 If the order fails, closure is handled manually.
