Tata Power deploys ‘Mobile-GIS’ in Mumbai for tracking customer complaints
- September 14, 2021
Tata Power, in a release, said that it has deployed a unique feature called ‘Mobile-GIS assisted system for Restoration and Care’ (maRC) for its Mumbai customers. It is a digitally automated and cost-effective system for the complete “customer trouble call management” including quality and effective tracking related to power cut or outage complaints.
How it works
The system sends a message to the customer on his/her mobile number upon registration of technical complaint with the link for ‘maRC’ which gives details pertaining to ETA (Expected Time of Arrival) of the technician assigned to attend to the fault. The application also enables easy tracking of the technician’s location in real time on a Map. This offers ease and assurance to the customers that Tata Power has registered the complaint and is in the process of priority resolution.
The ‘maRC’ system apart from engaging with the customer during a technical complaint also acts as an efficient complaint resolution tool. Once the technical complaint is resolved, the system gains immediate first-hand feedback on experience which can be done with just a few clicks on mobile. This experience connect through customer feedback serves as a measure for the company to further enhance its customer service in technical complaint resolution and ensure customer delight.
Customer-friendly practice
Speaking on the innovations, Sanjay Banga, President – Transmission & Distribution, Tata Power stated, “We are glad to deploy the maRC feature for our Mumbai customers. Over the years, we have implemented several consumer friendly practices which have been widely acknowledged by our customers. We will continue to introduce further innovations in technology to ensure smooth, secure services for our vast customer base in the coming years.”
The new feature has been introduced in line with the customer friendly features offered by various e-commerce giants such as Swiggy, Zomato, and cab-aggregators like Uber and Ola, the Tata Power release said.
