Technology providers integrate generative AI to enhance the use of
contextual knowledge in customer service
Möglingen, July 09, 2024.
Gartner® has released the 'Market Guide for Customer Service Knowledge
Management Systems', listing USU as one of the Representative Vendors. We
feel the report provides a comprehensive guide for executives in
procurement, purchasing, and supplier management. Gartner highlights the
central role of knowledge management systems: 'By 2025, 100% of generative
AI virtual customer assistant and virtual agent assistant projects that lack
integration to modern knowledge management systems will fail to meet their
customer experience and operational cost-reduction goals.'
Gartner defines three capability categories that CS-KMS solutions are
composed of:
* End-user engagement ranks and presents the most relevant answers to a
specific query, or ingests a single relevant actionable insight to a
moment in a user journey, and additionally gives a user the ability to
navigate a corpus of content.
* Curation and contextualization supports the discovery/retrieval, sorting
and clustering of content assets for delivery at relevant moments in the
user journey, including metadata, search and
monitoring/reporting/analyzing performance.
* Knowledge life cycle management captures, assesses, authors/creates,
reviews, edits, publishes, controls and retires knowledge assets.
USU Customer Service Knowledge Management covers functionalities in all
three performance areas.
Key findings from the report
* Generative AI (GenAI) will rapidly improve the automation capabilities
of customer service knowledge management systems (CS-KMS).
* Interest in advanced customer service knowledge management systems is
growing as companies recognize the importance of knowledge management to
optimize service and maximize ROI from GenAI investments.
* Advanced features such as automated content capture, curation and
dynamic content management set the most innovative providers apart from
the rest of the market.
Harald Huber, CTO and Managing Director of USU, reinforces Gartner report's
findings: 'With the deployment of generative AI, companies are on the brink
of industrializing their knowledge processes. This will fundamentally change
the way customer service operates, with knowledge databases being managed by
both machines and humans for machines and humans.'
