Project Objectives Improve call answer performance Enhance management information Achieve a standard enterprise wide telephony platform to facilitate flexibility, growth and cross team business. Replace old Meridian used for HQ and Inbound Call Centre

0800 Call Routing Solution Best use of both IN and in-house telephony - evolution/ balance risk WAN constraint (ADSL into branches) – 2 VoIP channels into each branch Didn’t want to go to full virtual call centre agent process (cost/ behaviour) Resilience vital given value of 0800 sales calls / marketing cost

Further Developments Virtualisation of Inbound Call Centres – Manchester/Halifax Virtualisation of 2 Taxi Units – Manchester/Liverpool Virtualisation of Commercial Insurance Unit – Manchester/Isle of Wight/ others to follow Remote Outbound seats Setup of new 150 seat call centre by Jan 2008

Summary – approach Clear business objectives & involvement Suppliers were challenged to find the solution we wanted Value of proof of concept work Strong project management Partnership approach (Swinton/ Amillan/ Alcatel)

Summary – solution Strengths Call centre but not a call centre… Very flexible MI strengths / 4760 management Cost effective for small remote sites Resilient with the PCS card option Weaknesses: IP resource management (channels/ licences)
