Support
BMS provides all implementation and support services through its own personnel, thus ensuring commitment and consistency during the implementation project and with follow-up support.
Service Requests, Resolution & Escalation
When a client is in Production Support mode, all ad-hoc interaction is channeled through the BMS Help Desk Technical Consultants, who make use of a specially configured version of CINTELLATE to record details of the Service Request (SR).
SRs can relate to almost anything BMS-related, from simple ‘how do I' questions through to software issues and recommendations or initial discussions on Continuous Improvement projects. Each SR is allocated an SR number together with a description of the request, and a mutually agreed Severity Level as to how this is impacting the client's operations. An email confirmation and a summary of the SR is then automatically sent back to the client and the SR is assigned to one of our Help Desk's Technical Consultants to investigate and resolve.
The BMS Solutions' Help Desk follows our Support Process Methodology to resolve the issue and communicate back to the client. If necessary, the Help Desk will escalate an issue to the Product Development Team for further assistance. The BMS Solutions' Help Desk keeps in regular contact with our clients about any outstanding SRs and a weekly report of outstanding and recently resolved SRs is automatically sent to clients.
