Hologic Strategic Shift: Data-Driven Lifecycle Management
About Company
Hologic, Inc. is a medical technology company primarily focused on women’s health. It sells, repairs, and maintains medical diagnostics, surgery, and imaging devices.
Challenges
Growing talent gaps and workforce complexities
Recruiting and training skilled teams to work on complex devices in a competitive talent market is expensive and challenging.
High demand for field engineers
Streamlining service resolution was critical to reducing the high costs intensified by inflation and supply chain difficulties.
Lacking a holistic view of the workforce lifecycle
Measuring the workforce cycle required a comprehensive evaluation of end-to-end service events beyond First Time Fix Rate.
Holistic Service Transformation: Faster Resolutions, Better Experiences
With Hologic’s challenges in mind, it was essential to prioritize rapid resolutions and holistic measurement of the workforce lifecycle. This approach thoroughly elevates the entire service lifecycle —including factors like remote troubleshooting and costs—to improve service efficiency and customer experience, moving beyond traditional metrics like the First Time Fix Rate.
“Aquant is the market leader in service intelligence, which was critical in our decision to partner. We gained insight into how our resources, employees, parts, and products perform, which is not provided through our other tools.” - Pierre Malboeuf, VP of Field Service Americas at Hologic
