The company is also excited to make public its innovative Service Centers of Excellence approach, an initiative that Mulvehill will be instrumental in accelerating during 2021. With seven focused program areas including Inventory, Mobility, and Audit and Optimization, the COEs are built to deliver practice area thought leadership and are instrumental in establishing the appropriate governance and processes to deliver best-in-class service.
What differentiates the Calero Service Centers of Excellence approach are the methods it shares within its business units based on a panel review of customer challenges, standardized training through “train the trainer” techniques, and business insights via data and customer feedback.
"Calero is a dynamic forward-looking company with a track record of operational success and phenomenal customer retention. I look forward to working with the team to position us for even more success through the innovative Service Centers of Excellence methodology to customer service," said Mulvehill.
