Loyal, satisfied customers are the basis of a company’s success.

Keeping this in mind, companies need to focus on knowledge across company borders, i.e. on knowledge from, for and about customers. Other important factors of success are the interaction, communication and knowledge transfer between companies and their customers.

The successful integration of customer knowledge is crucial for companies if they want to sustain their competitive edge. But how does this work in practice?

First and foremost, companies must establish a strong and trustful relationship with their customers. In a second step, the knowledge about customers needs to be integrated into routine business processes, enabling the company’s employees to act in a customer-oriented way and offer customized products and services.
