Abstract

Customer can be profitably considered as an enterprise strategic asset. So, it is very important to define a bi-directional communication channel between the customer and the enterprise itself. In this work we propose a model named Customer enterprise Customer (CeC), that continuously hears customer opinions about enterprise products/services and behaves accordingly. CeC exploits the inherent nature of the growing so-called web 2.0, where users spontaneously join and spend time in sharing their reviews. The CeC model first collects and analyses customer opinions, then reports dysfunctions about the product/service to competent offices for giving feedback to customers, either by making the necessary improvements or by answering customers. The proposed model crosses all internal business functions, from design to production, and it is placed on the top of a customer-centred Enterprise Information System. In this work an overview of CeC model is given.
