Triggering, conducting, and analyzing an automated survey
Systems and methods for analyzing results of an automated survey are provided. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method comprises conducting, by a processing device, an automated survey on a survey recipient associated with a customer location. The automated survey is configured to prompt the survey recipient regarding the quality of a service performed for a customer associated with the customer location. The method also includes receiving survey result information from the survey recipient in response to conducting the automated survey. The method further includes analyzing the survey result information and determining if one or more subsequent follow-up actions are warranted based in part on analyzing the survey result information.
1. An automated survey system including a memory device for storing a survey program and a database, the automated survey system configured to:
save customer order information in a database in a memory device;
receive, by a survey triggering module in a survey program, a communication indicating completion of one of the customer orders performed for a customer by a servicer at a customer location;
create, by the survey triggering module, a survey case associated with the completed customer order and store the survey case in a scheduling queue in the database;
trigger, by the survey triggering module, a survey responsive to the survey case in the scheduling queue after a predetermined delay;
conduct, by a survey conducting module in the survey program, the survey with the customer by playing a survey script retrieved from the database;
capture, by the survey conducting module, survey result information from the customer in response to conducting the survey;
analyze, by a survey result analyzing module in the survey program, the survey result information to obtain a survey score;
determine, by the survey result analyzing module, whether the survey score meets a predetermined criteria;
if the survey score does not meet the predetermined criteria, indicate that follow-up action is required;
determine, by a survey result monitoring module in the survey program, whether the survey result information includes a customer voice message;
if the survey result information includes a customer voice message, provide the customer voice message to a survey monitor;
receive, by the survey result monitoring module, survey monitor input from the survey monitor and add the survey monitor input to the survey result information; and
make the survey result information available for reporting and tracking.
2. The automated survey system of claim 1 , wherein the survey result information comprises numeric responses to the survey questions provided via a telephone communication channel.
3. The automated survey system of claim 2 , wherein analyzing the survey result information to obtain a survey score comprises averaging the numeric responses received from the customer.
4. The automated survey system of claim 1 , wherein the survey monitor input comprises a summary of the voice message from the customer.
5. The automated survey system of claim 1 , wherein the survey monitor input comprises a selection of a customer issue from a list of predefined customer issues.
6. The automated survey system of claim 1 , wherein the survey monitor input comprises a selection of a follow-up action from a plurality of follow-up actions.
7. The automated survey system claim 1 , wherein the communication indicating completion of one of the customer orders is a result of automatically detecting the servicer's departure from the customer location based on global positioning system data.
8. The automated survey system claim 1 , wherein the communication indicating completion of one of the customer orders comprises a message transmitted by the servicer.
9. The automated survey system of claim 1 , wherein conducting the survey comprises playing recorded survey questions.
10. A computer-implemented method for conducting an automated survey, comprising the steps of:
storing customer order information in a database in a memory device;
receiving, by a survey triggering module, a communication indicating completion of one of the customer orders performed for a customer by a servicer at a customer location;
triggering, by the survey triggering module, a survey responsive to the completion of the customer order by retrieving from the database a survey script and customer contact information associated with the completed customer order and contacting the customer;
conducting, by a survey conducting module, the survey with the customer;
capturing, by the survey conducting module, survey result information from the customer in response to conducting the survey;
analyzing, by a survey result analyzing module, the survey result information to obtain a survey score;
determining, by the survey result analyzing module, whether the survey score meets a predetermined criteria;
if the survey score does not meet the predetermined criteria, indicating that follow-up action is required; and
making the survey result information available for reporting and tracking.
11. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , further comprising the steps of:
determining, by the survey result monitoring module, whether the survey result information includes a customer voice message;
if the survey result information includes a customer voice message, providing the customer voice message to a survey monitor;
receiving survey monitor input from the survey monitor and adding the survey monitor input to the survey result information in the database.
12. The automated survey system of claim 11 , wherein the survey monitor input comprises a summary of the voice message from the customer.
13. The automated survey system of claim 11 , wherein the survey monitor input comprises a selection of a customer issue from a list of predefined customer issues.
14. The automated survey system of claim 11 , wherein the survey monitor input comprises a selection of a follow-up action from a list of follow-up actions.
15. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the survey result information comprises numeric answers to the survey questions received via a telephone communication channel.
16. The automated survey system of claim 15 , wherein analyzing the survey result information to obtain a survey score comprises averaging the numeric answers received from the customer.
17. The automated survey system claim 10 , wherein the communication indicating completion of one of the customer orders is a result of automatically detecting the servicer's departure from the customer location based on global positioning system data.
18. The automated survey system claim 10 , wherein the communication indicating completion of one of the customer orders comprises a message transmitted by the servicer.
19. The automated survey system of claim 10 , wherein conducting the survey comprises playing recorded survey questions.
