Utilising a thorough and transparent judging process, the Confirmit AIR Awards dig even deeper in helping to differentiate the very best leaders, teams, strategies and innovations.
Fifth Dimension was recognised in the AIR Project and Innovation category, which celebrates an individual project undertaken for a client that demonstrated exceptional application of methodology, true innovation or that yielded results that have had a significant impact on the client.
Fifth Dimension earned the Confirmit AIR Award based on its ability to elicit the unmet needs of their client – a leading provider of business insurance. The client wanted to explore white space opportunities to drive the development of innovative, technology driven value added services and unique customer experiences.
“It is in our nature to push boundaries and innovate, so when we received this extremely challenging brief we were confident in our ability to create a solution for them. With qualitative interviews not being possible due to the current COVID-19 restrictions and budget limitations, we had to re-imagine what we could do with an online survey and a chat bot,” Spooner said.
“We used our experience of surveying business respondents and understanding of psychology to take respondents on an interactive and exploratory process designed to complement their mindset. We used standard survey features to quickly profile each respondent’s mindset and then trigger the most appropriate discussion experience.
“We supported the survey experience with an interactive chat bot we called Echo to further increase engagement with the respondent to improve their thinking and depth of responses. We were able to successfully probe on conversations and explore a broad range of topics based on the respondent’s mindset.
“Being awarded the 2020 Confirmit AIR Award in the Project and Innovation category is an honour and I am really pleased that our work has been recognised in this field.”
