Radiants Ambassador Image


Always remember first impressions are hard to change
As an RSP technician you represent Radiant Systems. In several cases YOU are the only individual to have face-to-face contact with a client during their support experience. We entrust you to leave our clients with a positive, professional and approachable image as well as a good impression of Radiant as a whole. For further information please reference the Radiant Service Partner Code of Conduct and Ethics located in the Radiant Training Center under the Resources tab.

Radiant/Client Relationships
The success of Radiant depends upon the quality of the relationships between Radiant, our employees, our clients, our suppliers and the general public. Our clients impression of Radiant and their interest and willingness to engage our services are greatly formed by the people who serve them. There are several things you can do to help give clients a good impression of Radiant: Act competently and deal with clients in a courteous and respectful manner. Communicate pleasantly and respectfully with clients at all times. Promptly provide professional responses to inquiries and requests. Remember to follow up when applicable. Perform all duties in an orderly manner. Take great pride in your work and enjoy doing your very best.

Because our success is so highly dependent upon these relationships, discourtesy or disrespect to a client or another member of the public cannot be tolerated and may result in termination of Services Agreement.

Version 2.0

RADIANT SERVICE PARTNER

Program and Policy Reference Manual

Likewise, our clients and the people we do business with must be respectful to you. We do not expect you to suffer abuse. Therefore, report inappropriate behavior to the RDC. If you find yourself in a situation where you do not feel comfortable or capable of handling a client, respectfully end the conversation and contact the RDC immediately.

Dress Code
Radiant observes a business casual dress code when visiting a client site. This dress code has been created to attain the following objectives: To present a professional image to our clients and other employees To maintain a consistent and professional look for all on-site services Clothing should be professional, neat, clean, wrinkle free, comfortable, unfaded and without holes or frayed areas. Clothing should not be tight fitting, revealing, stained, torn, sloppy, or too short. Shoes should be in good repair. Jewelry should not be excessive or pose a safety hazard. We ask that all ambassadors wear a business casual, collared shirt while servicing a Radiant client. This may include a collared shirt embossed with your own companys logo. We also require that all on-site employees wear Blue/Black Jeans or Blue/Black/Tan Khakis (or Skirts) while at a client site. Rule of Thumb: The clothing you wear should be appropriate for meeting a client at the client site. The clothing you wear at a client site should set you apart from any other service provider at the facility. If you are unsure about your clothing, then chances are it is probably not appropriate for work.

Call Handling Receiving a Call


The RDC contacts you with the call information. The RDC tells you the location of the call, a brief problem description and what part is needed.

Return to Service Documentation


Radiant Return to Service (RTS) documents are included in most replacement part shipments. You can identify the RTS documents easily as they are printed on bright yellow paper. Items that do not contain RTS documents are typically simple to install and/or are consumable parts. If you are in need of technical support beyond the RTS documentation, please call the RDC and they will transfer you to the appropriate helpdesk for assistance. Additional RTS documentation can also be found by accessing the Radiant Knowledge System. We encourage you to print copies and add documents here to build your own library of RTS documentation.

Responsibilities for Radiant Equipment


Radiants business model engages the use of an independent logistics network to deliver replacement Parts to the client site. Responsibility for the safe return of the defective parts to Radiant Systems Atlanta Repair Depot transfers to the RSP upon de-installation of the defective hardware. It is important to adhere to any specific guidelines for the return of parts. In most cases, these are referenced with documentation included in the replacement part. For instance, printer toner cartridges must be removed from equipment prior to being returned. Radiants current process incorporates the use of pre-paid return freight that accompanies the replacement Part to the site. The RSP maintains liability for the defective part return even in the event that the pre-paid return freight is not included with the replacement Part. The RSP is financially liable for any hardware not returned to Radiant Systems within 30 days. Unless the RSP has a signed UPS receipt as proof of drop off. The RSP also remains liable for any hardware damage incurred during shipping resulting from the use of incorrect or nonRadiant supplied packaging materials.

Equipment Return Instructions

In order to ensure proper return of your equipment please complete the following steps: 1. Unpack the replacement equipment. 2. Keep all packaging, foam and the box, as you will use this to return the defective equipment. 3. Locate the Return Material Authorization (RMA) paperwork (3 copies, if provided). Picking Tickets stamped as CONSUMABLE identifies equipment that does not need to be returned. 4. Clearly print the RMA number on the outside of package and on the reference number line of the shipping label (the RMA number is found on upper right corner of work order). Pack the defective equipment using the box, packing or foam from the original shipment. Failure to clearly print the RMA number on all returning items and shipping labels may result in a delay of payment. 5. Place ONE (1) copy of the RMA paperwork from step # 3 into the box with the defective equipment. This paperwork is needed to ensure proper credit and to ensure timely payment of the contractors invoice. Keep the remaining TWO (2) copies of the picking ticket for proof of delivery. 6. Affix the provided shipping label to the top of the package. You may drop off the package at any UPS drop off facility. 7. Obtain a receipt from the shipping location. This documentation is very important in the unlikely event that the package is not received by Radiant.
