Polsat Plus Group: digitizing processes and implementing a convenient and environmentally friendly paperless solution

Project objective

Cel-small

Digitalization of B2C sales and customer service at POS of Polsat Plus Group

Polsat Plus Group has more than 1000 stationary points of sale (POS) throughout Poland. About 3,500 advisors work there, printing a huge number of paper documents every day.

Document handling was costly and also very time-consuming. Purchasing paper, printing, leasing printers and maintaining the archive generated high costs. Paper documents needed to be completed, verified, and archived.

Therefore, a decision was made to simplify this by reducing the scale of point-of-sale printing and using commercially available technologies and tools for digitization.

The decision to reduce the amount of paper used was also a result of the social mission carried out for years, the pro-environmental approach of the Polsat Plus Group and its activity within the Clean Poland Program Association (Pol. Stowarzyszenie Program Czysta Polska).

A proposal from Asseco, Xtension and Samsung was selected to digitize the process. The solution enables signing agreements with a stylus on the screen of a tablet running hardware security software – Samsung KNOX. The documents signed bear a qualified electronic seal and a qualified electronic time stamp compliant with the European eIDAS Regulation.

Our contribution

A prerequisite for the paperless digitization and solution to be implemented was to cover the widest possible customer base and to meet formal and legal requirements so that agreements and annexes could be concluded in compliance with the regulations.

The project required changes in the sales and service systems and in the customer acquisition and retention processes of the Polsat Plus Group, as well as the integration of the systems with the signaturiX tablet signing system supplied by Xtension. The schedule was divided into several stages, which were implemented gradually in selected business processes and companies. In the first stage, new digital sales processes were implemented for Plus telecommunications services, and in the second stage – for Polsat Box television services.

The digitization project was carried out by the teams of the Telecommunications and Media Division of Asseco Poland, Asseco Data Systems and Xtension, as well as the business departments and IT teams of the Polsat Plus Group. A total of nearly 150 specialists worked on the implementation for 12 months, from January 2021 to January 2022, and modified about 25 systems. As much as 99% of the workshops and project work was done remotely due to the pandemic. The project team first met live after 9 months of working together in September 2021, for the launch of the paperless solution for Plus services.

Benefits

Paperless: speed, safety and ecology

In the new digital customer service process, a POS employee using a tablet running signaturiX software scans a QR code from the sales system screen. A proposal of the agreed terms of the agreement and its final version appears on the tablet.

The agreement is then hand-signed with a stylus by the customer and an assistant representing the operator and confirmed in the system with a qualified seal and a qualified electronic time stamp.

This allows it to be strong and independent legal evidence. Finally, the agreement in an encrypted PDF file is sent to the e-mail address specified by the customer, and to the e-Archive.

Paperless solutions used in the project

Qualified electronic seal is a digital equivalent of your company’s physical seal. It has the name, address, and other company information.

Qualified timestamp is a modern solution that confirms the exact date of document authentication. It allows you to protect, among others, contracts, invoices, legal documents from forgery and anti-dating.

Tailor-made paperless products and services

A unique feature of the tool is that it has been integrated with Asseco’s Qualified Trust Services, Qualified Seal and Qualified Electronic Timestamp, compliant with the eIDAS Regulation. Integration makes it possible to secure the authenticity of the origin and integrity of the signature as well as its timing.
