"Forging The Warranty Chain": ExpressPoint Technology Services Partners With The Aberdeen Group On New Study
June 16, 2008
ExpressPoint Technology Services is a sponsor for the recently published study from the Aberdeen Group that examines how service organizations are implementing improved warranty operations into their systems to increase their bottom line performance and reduce overall warranty claims.
The study, "Forging the Warranty Chain", shows that Best-In Class organizations are increasingly implementing a group of systems that tie the operational aspects of warranty processing together with analytics from an increased warranty performance knowledge base. This creates an improved process that decreases the overall amount of warranty claims. Of the over 170 companies who participated in study, 70% of the Best-In Class companies responded that they have an integrated warranty and service management organization and 69% of them are using automated warranty claims processing systems.
ExpressPoint Chairman and CEO, David Anderson explains that as a provider of warranty services, processing more than 10,000 warranty claims on behalf of customers last year, the Company partnered with the Aberdeen Group to learn more about effective warranty management initiatives within the industry and provide their customers with the opportunity to make better informed decisions about their warranty management processes. "Offering warranty processing services on products manufactured by more than twenty computer and point-of-sale equipment manufacturers allows us to provide our customers with the streamlined warranty management services that this study demonstrates and that customers want. Partnering with Aberdeen on this study validates our strategies," said Anderson.
ExpressPoint and the Aberdeen Group have an established relationship and have partnered on other studies including, "Revisiting Reverse Logistics in the Customer-Centric Service Chain" and "Optimizing the Service Chain."
