Electrotherm: Enhancing Business Productivity

Solution Requirement

Rapid growth has nearly eclipsed its operational capability, triggering an ambitious digital transformation. The primary objective is to connect management and every business line with a seamless flow of information. Electrotherm was sifting through spreadsheets and emails to understand customer requirements, which was a big drain on time and resources.

Electrotherm was also missing details around their customisations and preferences – information it needed to deliver fast service. Delays in the business are costly for customers – every hour that Electrotherm’s equipment is inactive within their sites loses the customer revenue. It knew that to be successful it needed to put the customer first and eliminate that loss.

Solutions Deployment

Transformation takes time in the manufacturing space, but in just three months Electrotherm has achieved remarkable progress. This early success is supported by Salesforce partner Saasforce, which delivered to aggressive timeframes to minimise the disruption to Electrotherm’s business and ensure quick success.

Electrotherm intends to differentiate itself in the market as a clear leader in service and is fast realising this ambition. Agents and enginees now have a complete view of customers, products and supplies in one place that is easy to access from anywhere. It means they’re equipped to solve problems faster to minimise customer downtime and revenue loss.

Solution Benefits

Also for the first time, Management has detailed reporting on customer complaints and resolution. It can track the progress of key projects and analyse the success of marketing campaigns. And, it’s this holistic view of how every line of business interoperates that is making the biggest difference to the customer experience.

“In the past, reporting was quarterly and it was difficult to get an accurate forecast. To increase market share and compete internationally, we needed that bigger picture of the business which Salesforce provides. It’s really expanded our point of view and helped inform decisions like where we should outsource,” explained Dr Rahangdale.
