By combining the skills and resources of IT and line-of-business teams to establish a company-wide business data lake, organizations will have the infrastructure in place to build advanced technologies (hardware and software) and tools to deliver the customized experience their customers require. EXAMPLE: DATA VISUALIZATION TOOLS EMC s Global Services team has developed interactive and customizable data visualization tools build on EMC s internal data lake to enable customer-facing teams to drive more relevant customer conversations. These tools provide real-time data on essential customer experience metrics, including: system health and risk, customer satisfaction, product quality and onsite service operations. To provide greater transparency and access to customers, these tools are integrated with EMC s self-service online support experience, available to all support customers free of charge.

This customer need has resulted in the responsibility for data shifting from IT to the business teams.

Process and governance around the data are critical to maximize customer value as the internal teams: Open the door for deeper collaborative data sharing and access data democratization Ensure data integrity, consistency, security and predictability Allow internal functional teams to take personalized actions based on the data 4

However, In the increasingly complex digital world in which we live, these elements are not enough.

EXAMPLE EMC s Global Services team uses intelligent matching capabilities to bring together the right set of technical experts (language, product expertise, availability) to collaborate, while using shared data insights to solve customer issues. The impact is up to 50% faster resolution and far fewer handoffs between teams two of the most important drivers of customer service satisfaction. EXAMPLE EMC s Global Services team has implemented a predictive customer service model, built using an advanced algorithm, business rules and data triggers to identify potentially at-risk customers. Service Managers are notified to proactively follow-up. This helped to drive a 153% increase in customer satisfaction. 5
