What distinguishes the ServiceChannel Marketplace from other sources?
The ServiceChannel Service Provider Marketplace is different than other sourcing methods in three key ways:
- Objective performance scores. With Marketplace data, you can make confident sourcing decisions, because all providers are scored using the same objective KPIs. You can compare their results and see their actual performance for other clients like you.
- Unbiased rankings. Providers cannot pay to be promoted ahead of others. The only way for a provider to be discovered in the Marketplace is by delivering services to existing clients on the ServiceChannel Platform.
- Direct relationships. ServiceChannel is not a middleman between you and your providers. Providers sourced from the Marketplace work for you directly, so you can build long-term, strategic relationships.
How are providers evaluated?
Provider performance is evaluated across four key dimensions of service: Speed, Quality, Price, and Engagement Scores. Each score is calculated from a weighted set of KPI inputs.
The scores and metrics in Provider Search Network Opportunities align directly with those in your Contractor Scorecard.
What's the benefit of working with providers with good performance scores?
Provider scores are the best way to spot opportunities to streamline your operations, get better outcomes for your customer and employee experience, and boost your profitability. Good scores reflect great service by the provider and give you the industry’s best way to identify and retain the right new providers to optimize your network.
