DETAILS

The Need:  The Utility was undertaking to replace their entire billing solution and required overflow and additional capacity to support the much higher than usual call volumes.

The Timing: 60 days from initial discussion to launch OCI sourced and staffed a bonded team of 100 agents and integrated our secure networks with the customers to support training and launch processes

The Sizing: OCI worked to serve over 1,000,000 end customers with approximately 100 agents

The Benefits:  OCI helped the utility avoid expansion ‘fixed’ costs and was able to put in place the solution far quicker than it would otherwise have been done internally.

The Result:  The client was able to launch their new platform and absorb the incremental call volume as clients received their first ‘new statements’.
