6. Referral Process 6 Standard Process Our Case Management Assistance Centre (CMAC) will call each referred customer up to 4 times in 2 days at different times of the day between 8am and 7pm. Each customer will go through a meaningful question and answer session, with the end result being some allocated tasks to complete, and an initial appointment scheduled within 14 days. Customer is also sent a welcome pack, including reminder letter, and if applicable an SMS. Fail to Engage Customer who do not attend initial appointments are returned to CMAC who continue to call regularly and set regular appointment times. Warm Handover Several options are available working with JCP to improve this process, including: Co-location (either JCP at our sites, or a MAXIMUS representative) at JCP sites. This could include involvement of our Expert Volunteers (more on that later) Warm handover call – at the end of the final JCP interview, job seeker is put on phone immediately. The ‘failed to attend’ initial report is circulated back to JCP for action.
