In the fast-paced world of service delivery, the most significant threat isn’t always
external competition—it’s the silent erosion of internal expertise.
Tribal knowledge—the unwritten, experience-based insights held by agents,
technicians, and service staff—drives efficient resolutions, smooth workflows,
and high customer satisfaction. When this knowledge walks out the door, service
quality declines, operational costs rise, and even AI initiatives falter.
