NEC computers and NSE Services have been partners since 2003 for handling the warranty on their range of Notebooks for the whole of Europe.
Today NEC and NSE are giving a new impetus to their co-operation by privileging a local service that links in with NSE’s ‘European Service Integrator’ strategy.
In order to explain this evolution, Charles Gaudron and Marie Laure Sauvion of NEC Computers have agreed to answer our questions.

NSE – How is NEC Computer’s product offer orientated since the transfer of Packard Bell’s activities ?
Packard Bell primarily directs its offer towards the consumer market. Since the transfer of Packard Bell’s activities, NEC is accentuating its investment in its initial branch of industry, the professional market. Our customers are demanding and need to be treated with the greatest professionalism. Also the PURR guarantee allows for the collection of laptop computers directly at the customers without any additional expenses for him. NSE’s support is therefore crucial and decisive.
NSE - Which evolutions on the services offer do you intend to offer to your customers ?
It is true that NEC currently solicits NSE in order to provide to its customers with better services For example NEC is very interested by the increase in NSE’s geographic coverage.
During 2006, NEC and NSE worked together on a new service organisation. Whilst keeping a centralised European service for the customer interface, the coordination of each RMA, the supply chain and reporting, NSE set up a local service for interventions at the customer’s site and repairs, via its network of European partners (European Services Network).
NSE This deployment is operational in England and is currently being initialised for Benelux. What are your first observations, have you noted any advantages, and which ones ?
The upkeep of a centralised interface is a key point for the future evolution of our partnership. NEC has noted an improvement in the level of service in England following the set up of Repair Tech. The principal advantage that NEC has gained is the confidence of its customers. The installation of an identical system for the Benelux countries is thus very interesting.
What are you expecting of your partner NSE for the years to come ?
To continue to develop our partnership within a relationship of confidence and common interests
