Order Handoffs

Make it easier for one person to pick up where another left off.

Identify The Order

Decide what staff use to recognize the order they need. An order reference, the items on the order, or an agreed workflow cue can make a handoff easier in a busy moment.

State The Next Step

A short handoff works best when it tells the next person what to do. Agree on how your team records that a customer is still deciding or waiting for a change.

Handle Changes Consistently

When a customer changes something, pass along the specific change and check the current order before it moves on. Practice the scenario with a second associate.

Consider The Account Setup

Ask how staff accounts and connected customer tools fit the way your business receives requests. Find out which steps belong to a signed-in customer and which belong to the business.

Try A Shift Change

Use one typical handoff as a demo scenario. Ask both associates what they would need to find the order and what information they expect to see.
