"Today, the biggest challenges of contact center management are finding and retaining the right agents to deliver excellent customer service, coupled with cost-effective processes and technology that drive revenue," said Jorge Perez, senior vice president of Manpower for North America. "Our 30 years of experience in the contact center business tells us that clients want flexible solutions that are designed to fit their unique business models. Our contact center solutions offering does just that, it offers a one-size-fits-one approach to finding the balance between attracting the best people and having the best systems in place to succeed."
With the recognition that customer experience drives revenue, contact center managers are feeling more pressure than ever to deliver exceptional customer service and at the same time, reduce costs. It's also clear that finding talent is increasingly difficult - ManpowerGroup's recent Talent Shortage Survey revealed that 52 percent of U.S. employers said they faced challenges when filling open positions, an all-time survey high.
Manpower's contact center solutions address the obstacles to reaching those goals, such as high agent turnover rates, insufficient analytics and reporting, and lack of IT resources. The complete offering includes:
-- Talent Resourcing - sourcing and hiring right-fit talent with a new
assessment process that is specially designed and exclusive to Manpower.
CC ExpertMatch(TM) includes simulation, problem solving, soft skills,
and online communication exercises.
-- Process & Program Management - onsite or program management that
leverages a dedicated team of recruitment and HR professionals that
provide agent tracking tools and reporting to effectively measure agent
performance.
-- Consulting Services - contact center subject matter experts who identify
ways to reduce costs and improve quality using operational appraisals,
industry benchmarking and technology applications.
-- Talent Based Outsourcing - insourced and outsourced solutions,
including distributed workforce or virtual/work-at-home models that
reduce overhead, making it possible to cost-compete with offshore
centers, and also allow access to an expanded domestic talent pool.
"With customized talent resourcing and consulting solutions, we help our clients realize retention and productivity improvements through proven processes and innovative tools," said Kate Donovan, managing director of ManpowerGroup Solutions, which supports the contact center consulting and talent based outsourcing offerings. "Our clients then leverage those results to elevate the contact center's value within the organization. Our partnership approach ensures that our clients are well-positioned to succeed."
Manpower is a global leader in contact center solutions with more than 50,000 customer service representatives on assignment at 1,000 contact center client locations globally.
