Capturing Customer Feedback and Satisfaction

Bishop-Wisecarver (BW) has always focused on delivering high quality linear motion solutions on-time and on-budget, and we have monitored our performance and results for years. Every year since 2012 we have asked our customers to provide candid and confidential feedback to us about our products and service as well as areas on where we can improve. We are blessed with thousands of pieces of feedback from long-time valued customers. Here are the results from our 2020 survey.

Four Primary Reasons Why Clients Choose and Like Working with Bishop-Wisecarver

  1. 1. Bishop-Wisecarver products work great – in the most harsh & hostile environments
    The wide range of linear motion products not only work precisely as designed and reliably for years, but customers installing them in extremely harsh environments experience long, reliable performance lives – far superior to other products. They operate in corrosive environments (chemical plants and fields), dirty facilities (animal processing plants) and gritty locations (oil & gas locations).

  2. 2. Our service is the #1 driver of satisfaction
    Outstanding customer service was the #1 most distinguishing factor mentioned by customers, (high quality products as the #2 factor). Customer service was rated as “Top Box” by 75% of customers as well with shout-outs to the proactive and responsive customer service team, the knowledgeable sales reps and the technical Application Engineers.
    “BW is awesome to work with and is very attentive to my company's needs and urgencies.”
  3. 3. BW performs better than the competition on the factors that matter most
    Customers assess several factors about purchasing decisions, rating what's most important. Over 80% of customers ranked these decision factors “Extremely/Very Important”. For these six factors, 45%-70% of customers rated Bishop-Wisecarver “Much Better or Better than the Competition”. We work hard to be the best supplier to our customers and it seems to be showing up for the majority of customers.
  4. 4. Bishop-Wisecarver consistently and reliably delivers – earning their trust and loyalty
    A majority of Bishop-Wisecarver customers come back time and again. Knowing that the products work great, operate reliably over time, require less maintenance than other solutions and that they are backed with responsive customer service and technical support, choosing Bishop-Wisecarver for their next project is an easy decision.
    “Bishop-Wisecarver has yet to cause me even one issue in the two years that I have been working with them.”
