SPOC (Single Point of Contact)

Single Point of Contact

Designated person or role serving as the primary interface for a topic, customer, supplier or escalation.

Examples

  1. 01Each key customer has one SPOC in customer service who handles all questions and escalations.
  2. 02Purchasing also names a SPOC for each strategic supplier, so the supplier knows whom to call about forecasts, claims or price questions.
  3. 03Each quarter, the SPOC role is reviewed with the customer: response time, open issues and whether escalations still bypass the SPOC.
