BBR Service Manual Service Commitment/Section 1.2B

Franke Service Commitment

Service Commitment

Franke Foodservice Systems’ Technical Support Department and its third-party Service Network are committed to meeting the unique service needs of restaurant operators. We strive to provide the following response times to service requests for Franke-manufactured equipment:

1. Provide contact with the customer…

– Within 30 minutes of request for service during normal business hours – Within 90 minutes after normal business hours (including weekends)

2. Perform service visit

– The same day for emergency service* – Within 24 hours for standard service

3. Target a 90% “first call” fix rate

4. Provide 90-day warranty on service performed

*For the purposes of this warranty, “emergency” is defined as an equipment operating condition that poses an immediate risk to the safety of restaurant workers or customers.

This response time breakdown applies throughout the week and weekend. Due to varying customer locations, and varying service agent locations and schedules, response rates may occasionally be extended. In these situations, Franke Technical Support will work directly with the customer to find mutually suitable options. Franke reserves the right to use service agents outside of the stated Service Network.

Service Network - United States and Canada

Franke fully supports and is a member of the National Service Cooperative (“NSC”), the leading independent provider of factory-authorized service in North America. Franke provides 24-hour, 7-day response to customer service requests through its own Call Center and that of the NSC.

Whenever possible, Franke selects service agents who belong to the Commercial Food Equipment Service Association. This trade association currently has more than 450 members representing the U.S., Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico.

When Franke cannot select a CFESA member, it nonetheless adheres to the CFESA standard for qualified service agents in North America. Among them are:

• 24 Hour emergency service

• Factory authorized warranty service

• Factory trained and certified technicians

• OEM parts availability

• System for communication with field technicians

Performance of service agents, including their parts stocking abilities, call response time, service rates and customer satisfaction are monitored by the Franke Field Service Department via online, written and phone surveys. Franke Technical Support updates this Service Network list annually.
