Fujitsu Limited,Fujitsu Communication Services Limited

Tokyo, October 23, 2009

Fujitsu Limited and Fujitsu Communication Services Limited today announced that Raku Raku PC Help Line(1), Fujitsu's customer support desk for FMV Raku Raku PC users, has received Support Center Certification from the Help Desk Institute (HDI), the world's largest technical service and support industry organization.

Background

HDI, established in 1989, is the world's largest membership organization in the IT service and support industry. It has about 50,000 members around the world, and 90% of Fortune 500 companies are HDI members.

The HDI Support Center Certification is the only certification program in the IT service and support industry that is based on international standards adapted to support centers. It was also designed based on existing international quality-control and industry standards, including the standards set by the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM). Passing this certification involves on-site auditing, and applicants are required to exceed minimum scores in eight key areas and on 68 standards, as well as exceeding a base combined score.

Fujitsu's Raku Raku PC Help Line received high ratings for the following:

  • Policies and business strategies were thoroughly communicated from upper management to support staff;
  • Advanced contact-center systems utilizing IT solutions provide coherent, high-quality support, while serving as a medium for customer opinions to be reflected in products, services, and business strategy, as part of a PDCA cycle for raising the quality of products and services;
  • Seamless collaboration between Fujitsu and Fujitsu Communication Services, which handles the center operations, for ongoing operational improvements.

Building on the same expertise that helped the company win these accolades, Fujitsu launched a new PC Concierge Service(2) for all FMV series PC users on October 1, 2009.

Leveraging its accumulated know-how, Fujitsu will continue to offer high-quality support and services, and by constantly expanding its service menu, Fujitsu will strive to enrich the lifestyle of every PC user.
