Service Standards and Audits
What are
Service Standards?
Service Standards are clearly defined
processes and sets of performance standards set
by the organization
These standards enhance the Standard
Operating Procedures (SOP) and form the basis for
training and audit.
Why Important?
Ensure that a standard service process,
system and manner is consistently delivered.
Standards integrated into the job
scope convey the clear directive that service is
an imperative.
For organizations without any service
standards in place, the level of service given varies
according to the motivation, personality and experience
of the service staff.
Typically, excellent
service hinges on positive and well trained staffs
but real life cases fall short of such perfection.
Occasions where staffs offer excellent service
at the expense of precious company resources are
not uncommon. On the contrary, there are also
staffs who deliver bad services when they feel
unmotivated, especially when resources are not
made available to them. Customer's satisfaction
level will therefore vary based on previous service
encounters, unconsciously setting expectations
for the next encounter.
Setting Service Standards creates
a benchmark for the staffs to conform to, thus correcting
and elevating service attitudes. If there is an
existing service standards in place, staffs are
clear and informed on their individual and collective
service roles.
Built into the staff performance,
recognition and reward system, staff will be more
compelled to deliver excellent service.
Thus, customers' experiences will
not vary greatly from one service personnel to the
other.
