Direction: Identify the value gap of each scenario and recommend possible solutions. (15 points)
1. An internet provider fails to resolve an Internet cabling problem in less than three (3) days. In contrast,
they could fix the same issue in under two (2) days when the household experienced the same a month
ago. The household issued report tickets.
Answer:
The internet provider company should have a consistent quality or service and time frame for
solving internet related issues. They should have an efficient request or customer support system that
will enable streamlined communication between the customer and the service provider. They should
also check their repair/maintenance crews because there are some cases that the company already
issued a ticket for a repair request, but the repair crew are not moving which causes delay on the
delivery of service.
2. A startup networking company in a rural town only accepts clients with over 100 employees. In their
first two (2) months, they could only book business with one (1) company.
Answer:
It is clear that they did not consider the real needs of their clients, instead they have chosen to
stick with the industry standards. To solve such problem, they should reassess the requirements for
client/customer acceptance, for them to align it with the exact needs of the client/customer. It can also
be done through comprehensive research on what are the things needed to be done to get customer
preferences or get the proper settings.
3. An online IT support business always misses giving feedback forms when providing service. It affected
future clients with concerns about completion time and payment transactions.
Answer:
It shows that the business does not achieve the service and performance that the customers are
expecting from them. They should understand client’s perception and expectations from them. They
should always gather and assess customer feedback so that they will know what the things are needed
to be done for improvements. Communication is the key to solve this kind of problem. Another thing
that should be considered is the training of employees which is a huge part in having a good quality
service for the company’s clients, because it ensures that the employees are knowledgeable on their
responsibilities and helps them be more productive.
