Alerts are promptly investigated, and incidents are analysed to mitigate damage and prevent recurrence. The approach ensures data integrity and confidentiality while maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements, demonstrating a commitment to robust cyber security and resilience against potential security breaches.
Incident management type
Conforms to a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v3.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-16 / ISAE 3402

The support desk team manage the life of the service incident to conclusion. Our customer is informed periodically and/or when support activities/changes take place, until full remedy. Any service incident causing impact to more than a single customer or remaining unresolved for longer than 1hr, are escalated to senior management immediately and a major incident support process triggered

Fighting climate change

Glympse can add significant social value in combating climate change through innovative uses that streamline operations and reduce unnecessary environmental impacts. Here's how Glympse contributes:
1. Reducing Carbon Emissions: Glympse enhances the efficiency of delivery and service operations by providing real-time location sharing and estimated times of arrival. This allows companies to optimise routes and reduce idle time, significantly cutting down on fuel consumption and, consequently, greenhouse gas emissions. Fewer unnecessary trips and less time spent on the road translate directly into a lower carbon footprint.
2. Supporting Remote Interactions: By facilitating real-time updates and transparent communication between businesses and customers, Glympse reduces the need for customers to physically visit stores or service centers. This shift not only saves time but also decreases travel-related emissions, supporting a move towards more sustainable consumption patterns.
3. Enhancing Resource Efficiency: With precise tracking and scheduling features, Glympse helps businesses manage their resources more effectively. This includes minimising wasted efforts and optimising the use of vehicles and equipment, which contributes to overall energy efficiency and reduces the environmental impact of business operations.
4. Promoting Sustainable Practices: Glympse can encourage and facilitate eco-friendly initiatives within companies. For example, businesses can use data gathered through the platform to analyse trends and behaviors that could be adjusted to further reduce their environmental impact, such as consolidating deliveries or scheduling them during off-peak hours to decrease traffic congestion and pollution.
5. Increasing Awareness and Accountability: By providing detailed insights into logistical operations, Glympse can help businesses track and report on their environmental goals and progress, increasing accountability and promoting transparency in corporate sustainability efforts.
Overall, Glympse and similar customer engagement platforms play a crucial role in modernising business operations to be more environmentally conscious, contributing actively to combating climate change through enhanced efficiency and reduced ecological footprints.

Wellbeing

Glympse can significantly enhance social value by improving wellbeing through increased convenience, reduced stress, and enhanced safety. Here’s how Glympse contributes to these aspects:
1. Reduced Stress and Anxiety: Glympse alleviates the common stressors associated with waiting for deliveries or service appointments by providing real-time updates and tracking. Customers can see the exact location of the service provider or delivery in transit and receive accurate ETA updates. This transparency reduces the uncertainty and inconvenience of waiting, which can be a significant source of anxiety and frustration.
2. Saving Time: Glympse allows customers to better plan their day around deliveries or services, rather than being bound to broad time windows. This efficient time management can significantly improve personal productivity and reduce the disruption to daily routines, which enhances overall life satisfaction and wellbeing.
3. Enhanced Safety: By knowing who is arriving and when, Glympse adds an element of safety and security for customers, especially when they are anticipating the arrival of strangers. This is particularly valuable in vulnerable populations such as the elderly or those living alone, boosting their confidence in dealing with service and delivery persons.
4. Empowerment Through Information: Glympse empowers customers by keeping them informed about the status of their service or delivery, which in turn enhances their sense of control and satisfaction with the service process.
5. Improved Service Quality: The platform promotes a higher standard of customer service by holding service providers accountable for timely and predictable deliveries and services. This improves customer experiences, leading to higher satisfaction and trust in the service providers.
In essence, Glympse and similar platforms enrich customer wellbeing by making service and delivery experiences more predictable, secure, and less disruptive, thereby enhancing the quality of everyday life and reducing stress
