Call Center Consolidation 2.0
September 17, 2007
Let’s take a trip to the past—back to ten years ago, when the term phrase “call center consolidation” had a different meaning than it does now. Back then, consolidating a call center meant putting all agents into a single facility, often referred to as a “big room.” You could say that scenario was Call Center Consolidation 1.0.
Now, let’s return to the present. Today, communications technology has advanced to the point where it is no longer necessary to physically place agents in the same room to obtain the benefits of consolidation. Many call centers are globally distributed, combining in-house and outsourced agents to put together the best team possible. Is your call center one of them?
Call centers are always looking for ways to maximize flexibility, and modern communications technology is proving very helpful. Today, agents distributed globally can all have access to a single, unified platform hosted by the call center organization or a service provider.
During the upcoming Webinar, hosts Steve Kaish from CosmoCom and Erik Linask from TMC will explain why using a unified platform to consolidate agents is your best bet to create a call center that’s able to rapidly respond to changes in call volume and other market demand fluctuations. Kaish and Linask will outline the benefits of this approach, and share examples of how real-world call centers are using communications technology to be more competitive.
