Summary
Challenge
Electrolux APAC wanted to improve and streamline chatbot services in Singapore, Vietnam and Thailand by restructuring and unifying their existing systems.
Solution
Niteco refined the bot's architecture and created conversation flows with FAQs to ensure a smooth rollout across the 3 markets.
Result
- 85% customer satisfaction for product recommendations and improved user experience.
- Streamlined maintenance and support with a unified code base.
- Successful on-time, on-budget delivery, leading to an expanded partnership with Electrolux.
The Challenge
A first for Electrolux APAC, chatbots were launched in a bid to offer a more efficient customer support service to consumers in Vietnam, Thailand and Singapore. Niteco was tasked with restructuring the chatbots, refactoring the existing code, as well as providing a single instance for all development. Furthermore, Niteco were charged with designing the User Interface and training the bot.
The Solution
Working closely with Electrolux’s marketing team, Niteco identified a series of actions to ensure a successful roll-out of the bot, first in Singapore, then Vietnam and Thailand. Developers focused on the architecture of the bots, while a team of chatbot trainers worked on inputting Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and creating conversation flows that would generate the desired user responses.
The Result
Customers in all three markets took to the bots and challenged trainers with unforeseen queries, which were quickly and consistently added to the bots’ repertoires. The bots’ product recommendations were especially successful, garnering an 85% satisfaction rate for pre-purchase scenarios.
The projects were simultaneously completed on time and within budget. The single code base greatly facilitates maintenance and support and makes dealing with the back-end in general much easier. The new design also dramatically improved user experience.
As a result, Electrolux continues to expand its partnership with Niteco.
Highly collaborative and pro-actively takes initiatives for the best outcome, is open for discussion and patient in attending to queries from non-tech savvy users. I consider them my extended team and trust them to work independently with minimum supervision needed.
