The Club has undertaken a stage of continuous digital transformation, based on the permanent analysis of the activity, both internal in the business processes and external in the relationship with the customer, both B2B and B2C. Within the innovation in internal processes, the club continuously analyzes the tasks carried out by staff, trying to digitize, incorporating new tools, which do not provide value and freeing people’s time for those relevant.
Regarding B2C innovation, the club is equipping itself with tools that allow a better analysis and learning of the relationship that the client has with the Club and to create “patterns” to help improve service or be proactive in meeting future needs of customers. Analytical tools, Artificial Intelligence systems and 360 data collection are the basis of customer knowledge and behavior, something that is directly impacting society via adequacy of product and service offerings.
