Abstract

PT XYZ is a company engaged in information and communication technology services, supporting customers' digital transformation. The effectiveness of helpdesk services plays a crucial role in maintaining operations and fostering customer relationships. However, the issue reporting process is still handled manually through platforms such as WhatsApp and email, causing several problems, including inefficient ticket management, delays in ticket number assignment, and limited historical data. This study developed a chatbot based on Microsoft Copilot Studio to automate ticket creation, supported by Power Apps to address the lack of two-way communication features, aiming to support Customer Relationship Management (CRM) efforts. The system was developed using Waterfall methodology. The results showed significant improvements in service efficiency: the previous average initial response time of 2 days, 19 hours, and 13 minutes was eliminated due to automatic ticket number assignment; the average issue resolution time decreased from 5 days, 6 hours, and 20 minutes to 42 minutes; and ticket history search time improved from 14 minutes to 2 seconds. The chatbot successfully accelerated the reporting process, enhanced data recording, and reduced the workload of the helpdesk team. This solution significantly improved helpdesk efficiency and strengthened customer engagement.
