customer service
Customer service is what our business has been built on since we launched in 1971. Our success comes from delivering a professional service with a family business ethos – something that sets us apart from our PLC competitors.
Our customer service commitment
We are proactive, working to understand our clients needs and what’s important to them
We establish clear points of contact early on and brief our team on client codes of conduct
We are quick to identify problems and find solutions
We keep our customers informed at all times, whether working on the public highway or private property
We follow the ‘Considerate Constructor’s Scheme’ and closely monitor our performance
We are good neighbours, working with the local community to minimise disruption and expedite our works
We have a dedicated Customer department to help our water clients to deliver excellent customer service. Our customer liaison staff and planning team ensures that our stakeholder management plan is delivered effectively through timely, proactive communication with customers and key stakeholders. This reduces the number of escalations and unwanted contacts ensuring a consistent message is delivered throughout the duration of any project.
Browne has been a member of the Institute of Customer Service (ICS) since 2016. The ICS leads in setting and benchmarking customer service standards.
C-MeX
We recognise that our people are often the public face of our clients’ businesses so we do everything we can to keep our clients customers happy.
For water company clients, this means we directly impact their C-MeX, a key performance output based on how customers feel about the service they receive.
We make sure we have a positive impact on our clients’ C-Mex evaluation by proactive engagement throughout the duration of works, being open and transparent and keeping customers well informed, responding in a timely, professional manner, completing works to the satisfaction of impacted residents and businesses.
