About MSXI BPO Solutions
Offering
MSXI offers a full range of
BPO solutions to automotive OEMs and their dealer communities that optimize the
automotive retail and logistic processes by improving the customer experience,
increasing dealer profitability, and helping the dealer recruit, train and
retain a highly skilled workforce. Key solutions include:
MSXI CLM: This solution
helps dealers maximize revenues and profits by significantly increasing
customer loyalty and recapturing lapsed customers. MSXI CLM uses a combination
of customer data and information on vehicle service history, mileage, and age
to intelligently predict customers' purchase intentions and service
requirements. MSXI CLM can also be used to segment current and lapsed customers
according to their stage in the vehicle ownership lifecycle and relationship
with the dealer. This solution is used by dealership personnel or MSXI contact
center staff, who then pro-actively approach these individuals to book service
appointments and follow-up on previous dealer interactions. MSXI CLM can also
be used to institute vehicle recall activities, lost lead management programs,
and marketing campaigns.
MSXI Dealer - Sustain
Service Profits: This innovative program allows MSXI personnel to act as a
"virtual coach" and provide dealers with training and information
that allows them to maximize service performance, revenues and profits. With
the dealer's permission, MSXI imports invoice data daily from the dealership's
DMS and compiles in-depth dealer performance reports. MSXI's dealer experts
continuously monitor and assess the dealership's performance against
client-specific key performance indicators (KPIs) and identify gaps and
deficiencies that require rapid corrective action in order to improve their
service profitability. Customized action plans and collaborative discussions
between MSXI experts and the dealer drive sustainable process improvements, and
help the dealer reach higher levels of service profitability and overall
business performance.
MSXI also offers a wide
range of BPO solutions that drive customer loyalty, new sales, higher and
sustainable operational profitability, and help maintain a
"best-of-breed" employee base within the OEM, retail and aftermarket
distribution chain. These results-oriented solutions have been deployed in
several key process areas including used car sales, "voice of the
customer" applications, aftermarket sales, warranty management, fixed
operations, technical services, vendor managed services, and education and
training.
