Service Ready for Field Service is a program designed for individuals who support customers onsite in a face-to-face technical capacity.
In addition to the skills required of other types of service representatives, field service engineers (FSEs) face unique challenges when delivering service onsite. Service Ready for Field Service builds on the skills from the Service Ready suite, reinforcing customer-oriented behaviors that help FSEs connect with their customers in productive, efficient ways to produce positive defining moments
