Linkfields – exploring innovationLet’s connect

WhatsApp Business & omnichannel

Connect WhatsApp conversations with enterprise systems and human service teams.

OVERVIEW

Meet customers in the conversations that matter

A connected customer journey gives service teams the conversation history and fulfilment context needed to support the next step. We connect priority WhatsApp interactions to enterprise workflows and human service teams, preserving relevant information across agreed channels.

During discovery, we agree channel and provider scope and establish baselines for resolution time, handover quality and journey completion. Discuss a customer journey.

WHAT WE DELIVER

What we deliver

Design the whole journey, not just a single channel. Agree the provider, channels and commerce boundaries before implementation.

Conversation and intent design

Approved flow, response content and routing for the priority request, including opt-out and unsupported-intent paths.

Service and human handover

Routing rules, escalation points and a context summary for the receiving service team.

Commerce and fulfilment integration

Data mappings and system interfaces for enquiries and fulfilment updates. Payment or checkout is not assumed within scope.

Context continuity

Agreed customer identifiers, permitted context and channel-transition rules for the supported journey.

Governed workflow automation

Task permissions, approval points and auditability for requests moving between conversations and applications.

End-to-end journey assurance

Release test pack covering consent, authentication, integrations, failure routes and human handover.

ILLUSTRATIVE USE CASES

From enquiry to resolved request

Illustrative journey: WhatsApp enquiry → consent and authentication → CRM lookup → fulfilment update → human handover with context.

1. Understand and authorise

Identify the request, confirm the required consent and authenticate before exposing account data. Offer an opt-out or supported alternative when the journey cannot continue.

2. Retrieve and complete

Look up permitted CRM information and request the fulfilment update through agreed interfaces. Route integration failures to a named service owner.

3. Hand over with context

Give the human team the request, permitted history and pending action. Confirm completion or follow-up rather than asking the customer to repeat the conversation.

LINKFIELDS IP & ACCELERATORS

Delivery IP for connected journeys

These Linkfields capabilities can support an agreed journey; they are not a WhatsApp provider platform or a claim of Meta certification.

Intelligent Workflow Automation

Workflow automation, AI orchestration and application integration can route tasks with permissions, approvals and audit trails tailored to the service journey.

Linkworks

Linkworks

REST APIs and composable applications can connect custom service workflows where existing ERP or CRM capabilities do not fit.

Fit and licensing

Products are available by licence, subscription or SaaS, with or without a Linkfields services engagement. Discovery agrees product fit, reusable accelerator content and client-specific engineering.

SECURE BY DESIGN

From customer need to a connected journey

  1. Step 1: Discover

    Prioritise the service journey and baseline outcomes. Client owners confirm the provider model, supported channels, systems and operational constraints.

  2. Step 2: Design

    Agree conversations, consent, authentication and human handovers. The client approves content, templates where required, data access and retention responsibilities.

  3. Step 3: Connect

    Implement approved interfaces and workflow permissions. System and service owners validate mappings, audit trails, failures and escalation paths.

  4. Step 4: Assure and improve

    Test the complete journey, opt-out and handover before staged release. Agree release approval, operating ownership and feedback measures; improve the flow within the agreed scope.

ACCEPTANCE & ACCOUNTABILITY

Validate the complete customer journey

Acceptance should trace a request from the approved conversation flow to system action and human handover. Include consent and authentication checks, failed-integration tests, opt-out behaviour and confirmation that the receiving team has the permitted context.

Measure completion, resolution time and handover quality over an agreed period. Service and data owners approve operating responsibility and retention; use redacted test data when sharing journey evidence.

See Our approach and commercial models for delivery governance and engagement details.

ENGAGEMENT & BUYER QUESTIONS

Plan the right engagement

Use Time & Materials for journey discovery, or Fixed Price for an approved flow and defined integrations. A Dedicated Team supports an evolving journey backlog; Managed Service covers agreed operating responsibilities. Outcome-Based terms need measurable completion or resolution baselines and agreed attribution.
