Customized Service Models For Every Need

Supplemental / Hybrid Field Service
Supplemental/hybrid service occurs when a MERA® client has direct field service, and MERA® works within their service delivery process (and alongside the client’s service technicians) to provide support. 80% of MERA® clients have a direct field force working with MERA®. Examples of current supplemental/hybrid service models are:
- By Volume – using MERA® to manage the peaks and valleys of variable service volumes.
- By Activity – using MERA® to perform planned maintenance, thereby freeing direct service to be more responsive to break/fix activity.
- By Model/Technology – using MERA® to maintain specific models and technologies to maximize service efficiencies.
- By Geography – using MERA® in geographies where direct local service would not be profitable, and to expand sales territories.
Many MERA® clients use one, all, or a combination of these supplemental/hybrid options to deliver leaner, more responsive service.
Primary FieldService
Primary service occurs when MERA® performs most, sometimes all, of the field support needed by that specific MERA® client. 20% of its clients use MERA® in this capacity and some reasons for this approach are as follows:

- The convenience of a single service provider.
