3 Helpfulness We have seen an overall improvement from the feedback; we received no Unsatisfactory rating for this area with an increase in Good rating. The Excellence rating has slightly decreased but still remains at an acceptable level. Possible reasons for the slight decrease may be due to a decrease in the number of questionnaire responses. Telephone We have received Unsatisfactory rating for this area, a deterioration on last year s figure. We have also seen an increase of the Good rating. The Excellence rating as well as satisfactory rating has slightly decreased. In September 2013 we have implemented a new telephone answering service. Attitude The Department has seen an improvement in the Excellence rating and has also received no Unsatisfactory. Excellence rating has now improved to over 50%. Overall this area has seen an improvement. Answering Queries 96.5% average of all customers rate answering queries as satisfactory and above, the majority (93.3%) rate the service as or Good which is an improvement on last year. We have had an increase in Unsatisfactory rating of 3.5%, this has been addressed. The questionnaire is now available to all users 365 days a year and will be included in 2014 analysis. Page 3 of 7

5 To help demonstrate this graphically below is a chart plotting each question asked against the results of this years and the previous year s results - As you can see from the data collected we have maintained high levels of satisfaction with the majority of customers rating the Cardea system as excellent to very good. We have noted the one area of unsatisfactory ; the Search Function on Cardea. We are constantly developing this function on Cardea and have the enhancement below for the near future The key change to be implemented is an improvement to the search facility. We also have created alternative words against products. This allows users to search for products that may not form the formal product description, but may be a more well known term for products. i.e. Bluetack rather than the formal description of adhesive putty. Over the past year we have increased product images on Cardea by a further 100%. An enhancement has now been implemented which identifies through a camera product images, the user by clicking on this camera a pop up image appears. This product development was a direct result from the questionnaire feedback Product maintenance is an on-going monthly task for the information team. Page 5 of 7
