01 / The challenge
Where the work gets stuck.
Customers send information in several messages, while staff coordinate with stores, suppliers and service teams. Cases can stall because nobody knows which document or decision is still required. Administrative completeness must be distinguished from eligibility for a refund or warranty remedy.
02 / How Wek would help
A defined process, with people in control.
Wek would begin by agreeing the scope, quality standards, systems access and approval rules with the retailer. The following steps illustrate how delivery could be organized.
- 01
Define the case workflow
Agree required information, case categories, status definitions, approved communications and the people authorized to decide on remedies.
- 02
Create and organize the case
Wek would capture requests and associate receipts, product identifiers and supporting documents with the right case. Automated reminders could prompt required follow-ups.
- 03
Prepare the decision
Check completeness against the retailer’s requirements and summarize outstanding issues. Human reviewers would route policy exceptions and uncertain cases to the retailer.
- 04
Track the authorized resolution
Record the client’s decision, coordinate approved updates and maintain the remaining actions through closure. Wek would not independently authorize refunds or compensation.
03 / The workflow
From input to a usable output.
and approve the next step
An exception in practice
The purchase date falls outside the standard return window, but the customer reports a defect. Wek would prepare the evidence and route the case for an authorized decision.
04 / Expected outputs & benefits
What this approach would deliver.
- Organized return and warranty case files
- Case statuses and outstanding-action records
- An escalation and closure log
The intended benefit is more consistent follow-through, clearer ownership and fewer repeated requests for information already supplied.
How a pilot could be measured
- Cases complete when submitted for review
- Age of cases awaiting action
- Reopened cases caused by missing information
Measures and targets would be agreed against the retailer’s starting position. No performance results are claimed for this scenario.
