(firmenpresse) - COLUMBUS, OH -- (Marketwire) -- 11/15/11 -- Safelite AutoGlass®, the nation's largest provider of vehicle glass repair and replacement services, has been named the silver winner in Customer Service in the Best in Biz Awards, the only national business awards program judged by members of the press and industry analysts.
Through industry-leading 24-hour real-time scheduling, convenient in-shop or mobile service, top-of-the-line materials and SafeTech® certified technicians, Safelite AutoGlass® offers superior customer service, value and quality.
Safelite's contact centers operate within the top 5 percent of the industry, taking 13 million calls per year with an average pick-up time of 11 seconds (2 rings). Customer satisfaction surveys show a 99% approval for our CSRs.
Safelite AutoGlass® also serves customers faster thanks to unrivaled product availability. There are roughly 2,400 different vehicle glass parts, and having the right part in the right place within 24 hours is something Safelite® proudly delivers.
In addition, Safelite AutoGlass® serves the majority of its customers at their home or office, and is the only one in the industry to email customers a Technician Profile containing the name, brief bio, credentials and photograph of the technician who will perform the service. The email, which is sent the night before or the morning of the service, also provides the estimated time of service and location as a confirmation.
Finally, Safelite AutoGlass® also developed a sophisticated routing software with real-time data of weather and traffic conditions along with technician and inventory availability to hone down to a narrower estimated time of service. It then leverages GPS locators on technicians' cell phones to red flag any appointments at risk of being late.
