Walking in the customers’ shoes: How to improve the touchpoints
To Review • The ‘Big Society’ techniques can be extremely useful • ‘Touchpoint Research’ allows us to understand how the service can be improved • Transactional research can support this – the more ‘real time’ the better • But to understand the ‘whole journey’, more qualitative techniques are helpful: customer journey mapping, ethnography etc.
“It is reasonable to expect the same level of speed and service from the public sector as we would from the private sector” 96% of 55-64 year olds agreed, compared to 70% of 18-24 year olds.
In the current economic climate, how well do you think HMRC are doing? There is very little variation in attitudes towards HMRC’s performance across age and gender.
Which, if any, of the following influence your opinion of HM Revenue and Customs?
When asked about your opinion of HMRC, who or what exactly were you thinking of?
On a scale of 1-10 where 1 is poor and 10 is excellent, how do you rate the reputation of …?
On a scale of 0 to 10 where 0 is not at all and 10 is completely, how well do you feel you understand the UK tax system?
Thinking about the amount of tax you pay on your personal income. How do you feel about the amount you pay? Is it... Compared to a year ago, do you feel more positive or less positive about the amount you pay in tax?
Out of the following three options, which do you think HMRC should be prioritising at the moment?
To review • The wider environment matters. Overtime, changing attitudes to personal taxation, the role of government, or views on the economy may influence ‘satisfaction’ with HMRC. This ‘macro data’ is helpful to support the interpretation of customer survey data. • At the same time, understanding consumer experience at key ‘touchpoints’ provides helpful insights on how to continue to drive service improvement and support compliance. • The public’s expectations for the quality of service delivery remain very high.
