Understanding changing ownership of CCM technology in CX-led organizations

The State of the CCM-to-CXM Evolution 

'CCM-to-CXM transformation' is a term increasingly being mentioned in the context of customer experience, but what exactly does it mean? Global analyst and market research firm, Aspire Customer Communications Services (CCS), defines it as "the practice of managing all interactions that a business conducts with its customers with the express goal of improving the perception that customers have about their business."

In essence, it's the shift from managing customer communications—to managing all channel interactions as part of a connected, holistic customer experience, otherwise known as Customer Experience Management (CXM). Organizations with high levels of CXM maturity report greater customer satisfaction, loyalty, and lifetime value. 

Accelerating the Shift with CX-led Communications Management 

According to Adam Firbank, Senior Consultant at Aspire, enabling CCM-to-CXM transformation requires a new organizational framework that shifts communications control from siloed IT functions to those who understand the customer journey best: Customer Experience (CX) teams. Their 2022 State of CCM-to-CXM Transformation study found that CX teams control communications management in 54% of businesses that have achieved full CXM maturity.
