On Call Services

📞 Phase II: On-Call Services

Welcome to Nkwali Compliance Consultants’ On-Call Service training. This lesson equips you to confidently explain the service to clients, manage calls, log usage, and handle billing in line with our policies. Designed for new employees and as refresher training for existing staff.

đź“– Introduction

Our On-Call Compliance Consulting Service is designed for businesses that do not need a full-time compliance officer but still require quick access to professional guidance. Clients get short, focused consultations with an FSCA-approved Compliance Officer, ensuring they always have a trusted partner to answer compliance-related questions.

đź’ˇ Remember: This service is for advisory support only. It does not replace ongoing compliance monitoring or policy development.

🧑‍💼 Staff Responsibilities

Every on-call consultation must be logged and monitored properly. Staff are accountable for ensuring compliance with the following rules:

All calls must be logged in Salesforce under the client record, including:

  • Date of the call
  • Duration of the call
  • Summary of discussion

Check usage monthly. If a client is nearing or exceeding the limit:

  • Inform the client in writing
  • Explain additional charges
  • Track all communications in Salesforce

If a client frequently exceeds the usage limit, staff must advise them to consider upgrading to a retainer package. This ensures better value for the client and reduces ad-hoc billing disputes.
