Background of the Study
In the banking industry, customer service strategies are essential in enhancing operational processes, including ensuring accuracy in order processing. Order accuracy in this context refers to the precision with which banking transactions are completed, including account transfers, loan disbursements, and service requests (Okunoye & Olokundun, 2024). Zenith Bank Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading financial institutions, operates in Taraba State, where it serves a diverse range of customers. The bank has a wide variety of services, from savings and loans to corporate banking solutions, requiring a high level of accuracy and efficiency in processing customer orders.
In an increasingly competitive banking sector, customer service strategies play a crucial role in influencing the accuracy and speed of order processing. Strategies such as staff training, the adoption of advanced technology, customer feedback systems, and real-time monitoring of service delivery can help ensure that customer orders are accurately processed. Additionally, effective communication and problem-solving approaches are essential to resolving issues that may arise during transactions, thus maintaining high accuracy rates.
This study investigates the impact of customer service strategies on order accuracy in Zenith Bank Plc, Taraba State. It explores how specific strategies can minimize human errors, enhance operational efficiency, and improve the overall customer experience.
