SSA Global Customer, HSBC Mexico, Wins Gartner CRM Excellence Award
SSA Global™, a provider of extended enterprise solutions and services, announced that HSBC Mexico has won the 2005 Gartner CRM Excellence Award based on its comprehensive customer relationship management (CRM) strategy. HSBC Mexico leverages SSA CRM, powered by Epiphany, to deliver on its vision to become the number one financial services group from the customers’ perspective.
HSBC Mexico currently utilizes SSA CRM to deliver targeted marketing offers via e-mail and direct mail channels, and to drive intelligent interactions in their call center, automatic teller machine (ATM) networks and bank branches with a 33% offer acceptance rate. They recently completed an initial rollout to 750 ATMs.
“To achieve our vision, of being Mexico’s leading financial services company in the eyes of our customers, HSBC Mexico needed to create a corporate culture focused on customer needs, employ and develop the best people, and find and implement the best solutions on the market,” stated Gustavo Martinez, CRM director, HSBC Mexico. “SSA Global provides the CRM solutions and support we need to realize our vision. SSA CRM is playing a critical role in helping us instill customer loyalty and increase our market share.”
SSA CRM enables HSBC Mexico to send event-driven communications across outbound and inbound touch points. For example, when completing a service request, SSA CRM enables HSBC Mexico to combine customer history and preferences with real-time analysis, taking into account a variety of variables including likelihood of acceptance, customer value, and the bank’s business strategies. Therefore, HSBC Mexico can offer the most relevant message for the customer.
“SSA Global helps businesses worldwide meet the demands of their customers,” said Graeme Cooksley, executive vice president, SSA Global. “SSA CRM is helping HSBC Mexico realize their vision to be number one. We believe this well-deserved recognition is confirmation that HSBC has the strategy and solutions to achieve highest levels of customer satisfaction.”
The HSBC Mexico is the sixth customer using an Epiphany solution that has won the Gartner CRM Excellence Award and the first that won the award for the second time; HSBC Mexico also won the award in 2002. Past winners include Bankinter (Spain) and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines (The Netherlands). Epiphany was acquired by SSA Global in September.
