VALUE PROPOSITION

The primacy of customer service is one of Sopra Steria’s core values and delivering customer satisfaction is a key priority. Combining added value with innovative high-performance services, the Group excels in guiding its clients through their transformation projects to help them make the most of digital technology. To supplement arrangements already in place to regularly interact with clients, at the beginning of 2021 the Group surveyed strategic clients in its key countries through its annual Customer Voice survey, first run in 2019. The satisfaction rate of the 100 strategic clients surveyed was over 80% in both surveys. The qualities highlighted during interviews revolve around expertise, listening, proactivity, partnership, engagement and professionalism. The Group has decided to focus on delivering more breakthrough innovations as a priority for improvement. This survey is set to be rerun annually across the entire Group. Following pandemic-related lockdowns, the Group helped its clients quickly adapt their working arrangements. The agility of and speed of intervention by Sopra Steria staff, as well as the quality of services provided, harnessing the full potential of digital technology, enabled clients to maintain good levels of activity.
