The Customer Care Center (CCC) has announced their Spotlight Awards for the 1st Quarter of 2018.
The CCC Spotlight Award is a quarterly recognition program which is voted on by the members of the CCC. The goal of the program is to “shine the spotlight” on those who are doing the most to help the CCC provide a great customer experience for our clients around the country.
Our winners and nominees for Q1, 2018 are:
WINNERS:
Shelly Abbitt – ALA
She is a breath of fresh air when it comes to ALA. Extremely helpful and responsive. Keeps me in the loop with what is going on with orders. She sends over order acknowledgements with ESD included and then when the order ships (even partially) she sends over tracking information! Truly great customer service. Night and day difference in the level of customer service I am receiving now.
Daniel Thomas (CCC Team 1)
He always does a great job. He always surprises me with his ability and never tells me he can’t do something. He has really stepped up and taken on a lot with the changes and has excelled at all of the new tasks he has been given.
Cecil Chavez (CCC Team 2)
He is always willing to help and always has the want to learn more about new accounts and procedures. He’s a great team member and a pleasure to work with. I greatly appreciate his calm attitude and quick wit. He has been so helpful over the past few weeks and is so willing to help out. A true team player.
Ricky Sipes (CCC Team 3)
He has been a great team member to CCC3. Willing to learn new things and always offers to help when and wherever he can. Super positive attitude even when there is a lot going on. Gives everything he has everyday to learn the job. Accepts new challenges head on. He has a great attitude and is eager to learn new things.
Juan Ortiz (MDC930)
He has taken over as team lead for small parcel and is on his way to making small parcel a very strong team. He also kept warehouse returns until we could get the new folks recruited and trained. Juan is now transitioning the warehouse returns duties over to Chuck while maintaining his lead role in small parcel.
Mia Ferguson (Solutions Team)
She really is willing to help when she can, to get something completed, especially in a time crunch. There have been times recently where she has known I’ve been swamped and has offered to take care of things for me just to help me and get the job done. At the end of the day we (FSG) are ALL one team, and I think Mia has done a good job of recognizing that and acting that way. Mia has done a great job helping build unity within Division 90. Great attitude and spirit of teamwork

She’s had to balance training us on projects while she is still taking care of all of her own work. She has been super patient while we’re learning and has given us every resource we need to succeed.

He has made the warranty orders very easy for us to process.
NAC Service Team 7 (Holly Amos , Allyson Johnigan, Sandra Vongchanh and Brooke Beem) – They are all clear, concise, and consistent in all of their requests. The way their team sends over requests for an order should be best practice for all of the service teams. It is a fantastic bullet proof system.
Tosha Chambers (NAC Service) – Tosha is amazing, she always has her requests put together with as much information as possible. She has done a great job in communicating exactly what the tech needs for his/her work orders. She is always willing to go back to the tech for more information and is very understanding when I do not have an exact answer for her.
