Do you have any questions? We have the answers!

In mechanical and plant engineering, you are particularly dependent on fast response times and precise information. By using a CRM system, you connect all processes along your value chain. In concrete terms, this means that every employee, from marketing to sales and customer service, has a holistic view of all customer and contact information and can use it efficiently. The 360° view of your customers is the basis for networked services and contributes significantly to the success of your company.

Summary:

  • End-to-end and transparent process from initial contact to invoicing
  • 360° view of customers and machines
  • Optimal planning of repair and maintenance processes
  • Efficient and informative sales through direct access to all customer and machine information
  • Effective marketing campaigns through target group-specific selection options, e.g. at equipment level

Today, customers expect the same services from B2B companies that they are used to in the private sector from Amazon, Netflix and Co. To achieve this, complete digitalization of all processes, areas and machines is essential. A 360° view is the basis for networked services in the company to meet the rapidly growing customer expectations. It thus makes a significant contribution to the company’s success.

In mechanical and plant engineering, efficient processes are crucial for business success. Often, however, the processes are multi-layered: Extensive and individual offers have to be prepared quickly, and complex systems and devices often have to be calculated and designed in batch size 1. In order to be able to act efficiently here, the interaction of the departments involved is decisive for success.

In order to achieve end-to-end processes and connect marketing, sales and customer service, your CRM should be able to map at least the following points:

  • 360° view of customers and their machines
  • Seamless integration of the CRM into the ERP system for direct access to all service-related master data such as equipment, installed base, spare parts, parts lists, warranty information
  • Direct integration of configuration solutions (CPQ)
  • Cross-departmental collaboration through integration of collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams
  • Central contract management and versioning of documents
  • Integrated project planning software
  • Graphical and automated scheduling based on technician qualifications, location and availability
  • Predictive Service: Integration of IoT scenarios directly into your existing process and system landscape
  • Mobile app for service technicians with service report incl. digital signature
  • Networked customer self-service portal (B2B) incl. Spare parts order directly from exploded view
