Contact Management
Lead times, best-fit human talents, and organizational adaptability remain some of the most pressing challenges that modern-day business leaders are often faced with. Be it a merger and acquisition, major product re-launch, or operational optimization initiative, organizations often engage in business transformation activities that require a high degree of agility, resolve, and rapid turn-around time. Beneath all that, is the level of satisfaction on an organization’s customer base, which drives the growth of any organization …That is often the single most critical underlying factor that would determine the success of the organization as a whole.
Convenience, accessibility, speed, efficiency, reliability and security are the pillars of the overall customer experience. Each of those pillars is built through a well-functioning set of customer access channels which we, at Extensya, created as our own pillars for service. At Extensya, we evaluate the customer experience in an all-encompassing approach that revolves around the needs of the customer first and foremost.

The various business units and workgroups are set to allow easy exchange of data and transfer of knowledge, with a dedicated team to look after quality (Center of Excellence). Extensya’s Center of Excellence was established owing to the necessity of segregating the Performance management and Internal Audit teams from the day to day operations, and having a strong focus on delivery of Customer Excellence.
