      In a future shaped by artificial intelligence, a human touch is essential.

      To grow, business leaders need to put customer needs, purpose and values at the heart of everything they do. To deliver operational excellence and lower costs, the potential of AI must be carefully balanced with doing right by colleagues, customers and regulators. For the enterprises of tomorrow to thrive, they need to digitally connect millions of people to achieve more together.

      KPMG Customer & Operations exists to deliver this vision. Across the front and middle office, we help leaders build high performance functions, powered by leading technology. We operationalise artificial intelligence, built on trusted data and secure cloud operations. Together, we connect up enterprises, digitally transforming the world’s biggest brands to compete in tomorrow’s markets.

      KPMG Nunwood Six Pillars

       

      For the last 20 years, offers have been synonymous with experience. The KPMG Nunwood Six Pillars of experience excellence have been repeatedly established as the universal set of emotional qualities. They define every outstanding customer experience which can create loyalty and drive growth. More relevant than ever, these pillars are providing businesses with an essential way to navigate the coming change.

      Organisations that understand and deliver against The Six Pillars have always showcased enhanced outcomes, quick growth and greater shareholder value.

      The Connected Enterprise

       

      To thrive in this new reality, enterprises will need to be more connected, digital and customer-centric than ever before. When you combine the New Customer with the changed workforce, it touches every function not just the front office.

      For organisations which are able to navigate these challenges, there exist opportunities to accelerate economic recovery and lock in long-term cost savings. They can also create enormous value, for both shareholders and society.
