Mechanisms of customer communication

In 2023, FESCO focused on developing a chat function on its fesco.ru website and in MY.FESCO customer’s personal accounts, as well as introduced a voice assistant for customers accessing the Company's call centre.

  • consultations on transportation routes and regular services

We launched Technical Support for FESCO’s Systems, the Company's most innovative block enjoying strong demand among FESCO’s customers. It is designed to provide online technical assistance with MY.FESCO, Pocket Port, and 1C:Production. Technical support experts handled over 7 thousand queries in 2023, with the numbers expected to climb further on.

FESCO’s call centre introduced the Voice Assistant project. This tool autonomously handles standard queries and escalates more complex ones to human operators. The system comprises over 30 scripted enquiry scenarios and five guides on frequently asked questions from customers.

With the voice assistant, customers can swiftly get in touch with the right employee without operator involvement, receive text messages with pertinent details, and acquire fast robot advice on common questions. This innovation has reduced the average time customers spend in the answering system to a mere 10 seconds.

The chatbot's quality is measured by advice it provides.
