Situation
A recently formed Central Government department had a number of concerns about the quality of service being delivered across its various call centres and helplines. There was a large variation in services being provided ranging from a 200 seat call centre operation to a single person helpline. Overall there was a lack of strategic direction and planning with a total lack of consistency and overall awareness of services provided. There was a further driver of attempting to become more accessible to customers.

- Produced recommendations together with ROI statements and benefits to customers.
Result
- A consolidated structure with single reporting for all customer facing telephone based services.
- Increased awareness of the services provided by the department.
- Consolidation of services reducing cost and enabling consistency.
- Recommendations for process development and the introduction of new technology and operational management to increase efficiency.
