1. CCI Manual

Case study from a Group Operator in ME

The TM Forum Customer Experience Lifecycle Model and Metrics and the GB921 eTOM Business Process Framework provided Operator A with a basis for designing, mapping, and analyzing customer journeys. This critical context provided Operator A with the basis for troubleshooting customer interactions and customer journey flows while endlessly pursuing its goal of delivering the best CX.

Catalyst Project Customer Centric Service Assurance

The catalyst project demonstrate an iterative approach to achieving “Customer Centricity” culminating with the transition from Network management through Service Management to Customer Centric Service Assurance. This successful proof of concept serves to support the mission identified in STC’s CCI Manual. In the third phase, the catalyst focussed on Customer Insights – one of the main dimensions of STC’s CCI Model.

2. CEI Manual

Catalyst project Autonomous customer experience index for zero-touch 5G network

The approach taken in this catalyst represents a best-practice approach similar to that taken by STC – defining the CEI and using relevant KPIs as the key inputs to the Index.

In particular, STC’s use of KPIs that reflect Customer Satisfaction throughout the customer’s engagement lifecycle and the use of machine learning to ensure that all data inputs are efficiently managed – something that STC is using to advantage in Stage 5 of the methodology – is a solid and proven methodology.

Catalyst project Experience Journey shaping with Data Analytics

This catalyst underpins the best-practice approach taken by STC in that a holistic cross functional approach is taken and customer journeys are used as the basis for assessing the customer’s experience at each touch point throughout the journey.

Catalyst Project Maximizing Engagement with Predictive Customer Journeys Phase III

This catalyst supports the STC approach in using customer journeys to understand the customer’s experience across a range of interaction points such as those identified in the CEI Manual – Call Centre, Shops, Retail etc.

3. CJ Experience Guideline

Catalyst Project Business assurance – listening to your customers’ voice

The RAISE approach – a core part of STC’s Corporate Strategy for Customer Experience –promotes a highly-effective approach by leveraging technology and advanced analytics capabilities; this Business assurance catalyst project provides an example of the approach to leverage such technology capabilities based on 5G and dynamic network slicing amongst others.

Catalyst Project Experience Journey Shaping with Data Analytics Phase 1

This catalyst supports the methodology used by STC and documented in the CJ Experience Guidelines in that Customer Journeys are mapped against the customer journey lifecycle and appropriate KPIs are identified at each touchpoint.
