11、 (Geneva, 1996) 1 Introduction In the current telecommunication environment, there is a strong need to maintain customer satisfaction by rapidly isolating and resolving problems. Often through the problem resolution efforts of an ROAIAdministration (ROA I) receiving the customer trouble report, the

12、problem is isolated to another RONAdrninistrations (ROA II) network. However, in order to resolve the trouble, further actions may have to be taken by ROA II. In the absence of a contact point in ROA II to accept and follow up on the trouble ticket, the resolution of the trouble may take a very long

13、 time or, in some cases, may not happen at all. This results in considerable customer dissatisfaction as, in general, they do not care whose problem it is or where precisely the problem resides; what they want is to have the trouble resolved as quickly as possible. In order to improve customer servi

14、ce through speedy problem resolution and thereby increase their satisfaction, a contact point in each RONAdministration, henceforth defined as the Customer Satisfaction Point is recommended. In the following, the roles and responsibilities of the Customer Satisfaction Point are described. 2 Purpose

15、Without clearly defined contact points and well-established procedures for resolving customer trouble reports which involve another ROA, ROAS may resort to reporting these troubles on an ad hoc basis to the International Maintenance PointsKentres (Transmission or Switching) or the Network Operations

16、 Centre of the other ROA. The Intemational Maintenance Points are primarily focused on maintaining and resolving problems associated with specific circuits, facilities and network equipment. The personnel in these centres may not have the responsibility or the authority to investigate troubles that

17、lie outside the scope of their work. There may also be a need to have special expertise to resolve customer reported troubles that could arise from complex interaction between the network and the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE). Therefore, from a process point of view, a separate point of contact

18、for customer specific troubles reported by another entity is necessary. This point of contact and associated trouble reporting procedures will define precisely to whom and how the troubles should be reported. It should be noted that this contact point is distinct from maintenance contact points defi

19、ned in Recommendation M. 1510. 3 Definition 3.1 receiving and acting on trouble reports from other RONAdministrations pertaining to customer-specific troubles. customer satisfaction point: It is the single point of contact in an RONAdministration that is responsible for 4 Customer satisfaction point

20、 4.1 acting on customer-specific troubles from other RONAdministrations. It is recommended that a single point of contact be established by each RONAdministration for receiving and 4.2 The name, telephone, facsimile, telex numbers, and electronic mail address of the Customer Satisfaction Point shoul

21、d be exchanged among all RONAdministrations. The information exchanged must be separate from the list lcontained in Recommendation M. 15 10, which is a contact list for circuit/facility/equipment maintenance. Recommendation E.440 (02/96) 1 ITU-T RECMN*E=440 96 4862593 ObL5L75 688 4.3 Any RONAdminist

22、ration belonging to ITU (ROA I) should be able to utilize the Customer Satisfaction Point of any other RONAdrninistration (ROA II) to report customer-specific problems that have been isolated through the efforts of ROA I to the network of ROA II. ROA I has the responsibility to provide a well-docume

23、nted trouble history indicating the problem isolation procedures that it has undertaken to resolve the trouble on its own. ROA II has then the responsibility to investigate and report on the trouble resolution as soon as possible to ROA I which initiated the request. 5 Remarks a) This Recommendation

24、 does not intend to dictate in any fashion whatsoever the internal processes in each ROAIAdministration for the establishment of the Customer Satisfaction Point nor does it require the contact point to have a specific level of authority except that the contact point should be able to receive and res

25、olve troubles quickly. The procedures adopted to resolve troubles after they are received is certainly under the discretion of the receiving RONAdministration. Example of information that may be exchanged between Customer Satisfaction Points of different ROAslAdministrations is contained in Annex A.
