CII Institute of Quality is pleased to announce a two-day programme on “Customer Relationship Management” scheduled to be held on 12 – 13 March 2009 at the CII – Sohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre, Hyderabad

In today’s competitive scenario, it is extremely important for organizations to understand their customer segments and their needs. Proactive involvement with customers in order to discuss and address their needs, expectations and concerns is an absolute requirement. Products & services are designed and developed, produced and delivered; based on the needs and expectations of the current customers as well as non-customers. It is essential to effectively serve the customers through the value chain and enhance the relationship, to develop loyalty. This in turn would lead to enhanced business success.

Therefore, determining and meeting customers’ day-to-day contact requirements is of prime importance. Also, there has to be an efficient and effective methodology to handle feedback received from day to day contacts including complaints. Customers’ perceptions of the organization’s quality of services are based on what they encounter in their interaction with its people, products and services. It is also influenced by the feedback customers receive from others based on their interactions.

Organizations need to understand their current value delivery system and re-design their customer-facing business processes from the end customer’s point of view. Organizations need to continuously innovate in the ways they provide support to their customers. This would enhance customer loyalty.
