Shared Service Desk

By definition a shared service desk exists to provide customers accurate and timely responses to a whole range of questions with an expectancy to provide these answers regardless of their inbound channel. Whether it is a dedicated shared service centre or an outsourced service desk, agents require flexible access to the right knowledge at the right time.

With our service desk knowledge management solutions, agents have the ability to quickly and easily scour multiple repositories from one search engine, whether it be through a Natural Language Search or a decision tree, obtaining an accurate and timely resolution has never been easier.

Within the typical HR department up to 71% of time is spent on employee management. This includes answering frequent and generic inbound questions, resolving internal issues and disciplinary procedures.

These areas carry great importance but can easily be solved through allowing employees to self-serve their queries or to deploy a proficient HR service desk solution, to free up more time for workforce development and organisational management.

IT Service Desk

Whether deployed standalone or integrated with your ITSM tool, Universal’s combination of intelligent search, expert escalations, content management features and knowledge gap identification will improve your ITIL knowledge management processes.
