Greenwood Village, CO –August 5, 2020 — CSG® (NASDAQ: CSGS) today announced it has signed a long-term agreement with New Leaf Service Contracts, Inc. to help enhance the warranty management process with its customers. CSG will deploy a new contract management capability within its Field Service Management platform to give New Leaf the ability to automate processes, while providing critical customer data to digitally transform the end-to-end management of its contracts.

CSG Field Service Management is an award-winning, multi-vertical, cloud-based platform that helps companies integrate field service management into their overall customer experience. The platform transforms the way technicians conduct their work in a digital world, providing a real-time, 360-degree view of a company’s field operations.

New Leaf provides service contracts, warranty support, claims management, and network management through partnerships with over 800 retailers, manufacturers, distributors, and service providers nationwide. New Leaf provides their services for a wide array of products including appliances, electronics, furniture, lawn and garden, and jewelry. 

CSG Field Service Management will help New Leaf provide superior customer experience throughout their contract management value chain, including customer acquisition, warranty management, claim adjudication, and repair or replacement of home appliances and equipment.

“Customer engagement is at the heart of our service plan strategy, helping create an exceptional service experience that ultimately supports our business growth and retention objectives,” said New Leaf CEO Sean Hicks. “As our warranty management process increases in complexity, we must invest in innovative technologies that deliver efficiencies and enhanced customer experience. CSG is at the forefront of providing state-of-the-art customer engagement solutions to help further accelerate our company’s digital transformation.”

The integration of Field Service Management, and its contract management capability, will help New Leaf automate its claim and warranty processes, while leveraging proactive communications channels such as electronic communications and inbound voice recognition (IVR).  In doing so, Field Service Management increases operational efficiencies, lowers response time, reduces costs, and enhances customer engagement by enabling New Leaf to:

  • Engage with new customers throughout their service experience
