Frequently Asked Questions
Operational Support
What kind of support is included?
Our support covers a spectrum from daily operational queries and troubleshooting system behaviours to proactive monitoring and strategic guidance on optimising your Seko configuration within your broader ecosystem.
How do you handle urgent issues?
We establish clear escalation paths defined at the start of our engagement. Critical incidents are addressed based on agreed-upon severity levels and response times, ensuring minimal disruption to your operations.
Can you help with Seko training for my team?
Yes, a core component of our support engagements includes knowledge transfer and tailored training sessions for your operational users, ensuring they are proficient and self-sufficient in daily Seko tasks.
Performance & Optimisation
How do you measure support success?
We track key metrics such as issue resolution times, reduction in recurring incidents, improvement in supply chain visibility, and the overall efficiency gains delivered to your logistics operations. These are reviewed in regular governance meetings.
Can you help reduce my freight costs with Seko?
While we don't directly negotiate rates, we analyse your freight expenditure patterns, dimensional weight strategies, and carrier performance within Seko to identify opportunities for cost optimisation and provide recommendations for negotiation or operational adjustments.
Governance & Relationship
What does a typical support engagement look like?
Engagements typically involve a dedicated account manager, regular operational review calls (weekly/fortnightly), and Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) with senior stakeholders to align on strategic objectives and performance.
How do you communicate during an issue?
Communication protocols are agreed at the outset, typically involving a dedicated communication channel (e.g., Slack, Teams) for operational queries, a ticketing system for formal issue logging, and scheduled calls for broader discussions.
