THE ASSIGNMENT

The Global Procurement department is responsible for supporting stakeholders with procurement processes and policies. In this department, we have room for an intern who will do a research and development internship.

• Identify key areas for improvement in terms of user experience, conversation flow, and multilingual support.
• Define project goals and objectives for stakeholder research and design enhancement.

2. Measure Phase

• Collect feedback from stakeholders (RPO staff, category managers, business requestors) through interviews and surveys.
• Establish metrics for evaluating chatbot performance (accuracy, escalation rate, user satisfaction, adoption).

3. Analyze Phase

• Research best practices in chatbot design, conversation-driven development, and multilingual experience.
• Develop a plan for improving conversation flows, escalation paths, and knowledge base structure.

4. Improve Phase

• Propose enhancements to the chatbot's design
• Validate proposed changes with a small stakeholder group and document results.

5. Control Phase

• Recommend control measures for continuous improvement (knowledge updates, feedback loops).
• Suggest training guidelines for procurement teams to maximize adoption.
• Outline monitoring and reporting methods for chatbot performance and user satisfaction over time.
