Customer Service Representative

Your CSR is there to serve you and to help you secure the order!

CSR responsibilities include the following:
 Quote Review: The CSR will review your SAP quote request carefully to ensure that
all information has been provided. If anything is unclear, the CSR will ask for
clarifications. If you are unsure about anything, call first before submitting the quote
request.
 Quote pricing: The CSR will send you (via SAP) a priced quote. If there are special
pricing concerns, be sure to give that information to the CSR in advance.
 Transportation Planning: WNC needs all trailers to ship within 15 days of completion.
This means that Orders should be Advance Planned no later than 30 days prior to
production. The Transportation Dept. will provide transportation rates to you based on
mode and destination.
 CSR’s will be contacting you at least 30 days and again 10 days prior to production to
ensure that all Customer Supplied Material will be here on time.
 The CSR will track your order throughout its cycle and will let you know if there are any
issues that need addressing. You have visibility in SAP and should stay on top of your
orders as well.
 Factory visits must be coordinated through your CSR, including Pilots which must be
scheduled 45 days in advance.

Quote Cycle Management
 Quote Turnaround times are being measured and tracked.
 Daily prioritization of quotes (work with your CSR).
 Primary bottleneck are due to incomplete, unclear, and faulty quotes submitted.
 Quotes that require extensive review and cleanup by CSR’s add time to the
turnaround process.
 Quotes that are unclear to the Costing Group may be rejected until issues are
addressed.
 “Clean” quotes move in and out of Costing much quicker!
 Quoting WNC standard designs move quicker through the process! Key
variations from Standard require WNC Executive approval.
 Avoid Re-quotes whenever possible…. they will be re-costed.
 Know which Options the customer is interested in before the quote is submitted.
 Completely fill out the quote request form.
 Respond to requests for updates on opportunities. We need follow-up on a
weekly basis.
 If Questions, contact your CSR…. They are ready to help!
