Ein wichtiger Aspekt dabei ist die CX-Messung. Traditionelle Zufriedenheitsmessungen sind oft nicht ausreichend, um die Kundenerfahrung in komplexen Prozessen vollst{\"a}ndig zu erfassen. Daher wird in diesem Kapitel eine prozess{\"u}bergreifende Referenzl{\"o}sung zur CX-Messung am Beispiel der Telekommunikationsindustrie vorgeschlagen. Ausgangspunkt ist ein industriespezifisches Prozessmodell, das sich an dem Referenzmodell eTOM orientiert. Dieses wird um Messpunkte erweitert, die Schwachstellen in Bezug auf die CX identifizieren. F{\"u}r die erkannten Schwachstellen werden {\"u}ber eine Referenzmatrix m{\"o}gliche Ausl{\"o}ser abgeleitet und anhand von typischen Gesch{\"a}ftsfallmengen bewertet. Somit ist eine direkte Zuordnung und Erfolgsmessung konkreter Maßnahmen zur Behebung der Schwachstellen m{\"o}glich. Die so entwickelte Referenzl{\"o}sung wurde im Projekt K1 bei der Deutschen Telekom erfolgreich umgesetzt.

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the TM Forum have provided reference solutions that are broadly recognized and used throughout the value chain of the telecommunications industry, and which can be considered the de facto standard. The book describes how these reference solutions can be used in a practical context: it presents the latest insights into their development, highlights lessons learned from numerous international projects and combines them with well-founded research results in enterprise architecture management and reference modeling. The complete architectural transformation is explained, from the planning and set-up stage to the implementation.
