Government services often receive a high volume of phone calls. Due to the large number of callers, many people get put on hold and wait long periods of time to talk to a person or their phone calls don’t get answered. When it comes to answering a vast amount of phone calls, call centres can be very beneficial.
Government organizations are under pressure to operate efficiently while increasing service to the customer. There is a growing expectation to communicate clearly, respond quickly and provide a consistent message within all channels. There is an associated need to enable access to services by providing a multimedia user experience. This includes utilizing voice, Web, text, chat and videoconferencing, thus improving the efficiency of these services and reducing costs.
These agencies face stringent obstacles when evaluating cloud solutions that can provide superior service levels to the public. With NEC’s UNIVERGE BLUE ENGAGE, government agencies, from small single offices to larger provincial or nation-wide service providers, are enabled to solve common challenges such as:
- Call volume spikes, by allowing for seamless scalability at any given time
