One of the things that caught my eye in the Institute of Customer Services UK’s (UKSCI) most recent report on customer satisfaction was the suggestion that a growing number of customers are prepared to pay more for improved service.

The Scottish Wide Area Network (SWAN) has been given a record high satisfaction score for 2021, with 98% of public sector respondents saying they are satisfied with the network compared to 94% in 2020.

The delivery of public sector services in four Highland locations is to undergo a dramatic transformation thanks to a project that will bring new full fibre infrastructure – the fastest, most reliable digital connectivity – to the region.

Capita plc, in conjunction with the SWAN Innovation Forum, today announces it is proposing to roll out Internet of Things (IoT) capability across the Scottish Wide Area Network (SWAN).

At last week’s UK National Contact Centre Awards ceremony, there was success for two of Capita businesses.
