A great retailer with a history and a strong culture of technical innovation, Officeworks chose ServiceNow to achieve increased team member productivity with Penny - an AI Virtual Assistant and mobile app for retail stores.
Officeworks provides 24/7 service desk support for nearly 10,000 employees across their organization. To improve productivity and deliver a better experience for their team, they knew that "sending team members to a portal to fill out a form was just not going to cut it." In this video, we talk to Andrew Ritchie about what they've managed to accomplish on ServiceNow, and how working with Thirdera to build Penny - their ServiceNow Virtual Agent persona - has added significant value to their everyday operation. This includes diverting 63,000 interactions to self-service and reducing over 200,000 sheets of paper that were previously used for filling out manual forms. That outcome made it possible for various IT personnel to grow their career by pursuing higher roles within their specialty, as well as helped to fulfill their ongoing commitment to reducing waste and improving their environmental impact. Watch the video below to see Penny in action, and hear how Officeworks is changing the way they engage their users with ServiceNow.
