Integrated People, Processes, Technologies and Quality Make the Difference
- People – EDS' people are the most important component of our approach. EDS contact centers around the world are staffed with experienced, results-oriented teams that drive agent productivity and operational innovation. You will find a highly skilled global technology staff who ensure that daily operations remain stable and reliable. We also have recruiting processes that select, train, and retain the best customer service professionals to maintain and improve customer satisfaction. Our agents are further supported through focused training and retention programs that increase agent effectiveness.
- Process – Around the world, our contact centers combine our globally consistent, customer operations performance center (COPC) compliant delivery processes with our standard technology infrastructure expertise to help you achieve your customer-focused goals. By clearly measuring the effectiveness of our processes both quantitatively and qualitatively, we provide the operational discipline to effectively manage operations within an individual contact center, across multiple sites or multiple geographies.
- Technology – The technology component is a key enabler of the people and process components. EDS' global leveraged technology platform is built using products from key alliance partners and provides your business with superior functionality, reliability, scalability and security. Its advanced routing capability ensures customers are segmented by value and connected to the appropriate resource the first time, regardless of the interaction channel chosen by the customer.
- Quality- All three of these components are strengthened by a Quality System that EDS has developed over the last decade and continues to enhance globally. Our Quality System is our set of management practices to ensure that our services, products, and solutions are reliably designed, delivered and supported at the claimed quality levels and continuously improved to meet changing customer and business requirements. To support the Quality System, we provide a comprehensive integrated framework comprised of dozens of market recognized best practices, regulation and standards. These Quality components are woven into the fabric of our global common processes to enable consistent delivery of services while complying with international standards for quality, security, privacy, and service management that protect the interests of EDS clients and their customers.
