Call Center Outsourcing Overview

For call center outsourcing companies, winning new business and driving down costs are not only essential for growth, but also survival in the current economy. Yet many outsourcers don’t realize how much their current call center technology is holding back their outsourcing business – most commonly, by preventing them from going after new business or finding new ways to reduce their cost structure.

Forward-looking companies are leveraging a host of new technology deployment models (such as on-demand software), as well as new agent models enabled by these technologies (such as remote agents), to revolutionize their outsourcing business. For the growing number of outsourcing companies, leveraging these new industry innovations is resulting in significant competitive and cost advantages. For example, they are:

  • Gaining real-time insight into campaign and agent performance and making changes swiftly to effect the best financial outcomes and service levels
  • Providing real-time visibility and control for the business user
  • Reducing annual labor costs by up to 15%, facility costs by up to 100%, and annual technology costs by as much as 35%

Given these types of outcomes, it’s becoming increasingly clear that late adopters may be in for an unpleasant surprise over the next 12-18 months, as they will be increasingly disadvantaged in competitive sales situations.

But making the transitions in terms of technology platform, agent staffing model, and remote agent management often seems daunting at first. LiveOps has developed this resource center to provide you with proven, expert knowledge to simplify the path to adoption – and embrace competitive advantage through on-demand technology, remote agent models, or both.
