Revolutionizing Contact Center Operations with Groundbreaking Speech Analytics
In an era where customer experience and compliance are paramount, Xdroid takes great pride in being named as a finalist in the esteemed “Best Improvement Award- External Consulting/Training Services” category at the Contact Center World, Global Top Ranking Performers Awards 2024. This accolade is a testament to the innovative partnership between Xdroid, Principal Insurance, and Avoira, that aims to redefine the standards of customer service and regulatory adherence in the industry.
Innovative Solutions Meeting New Challenges
With consumer safety at a growing risk, regulatory bodies are amplifying their efforts to protect them. The guidelines for companies to follow are constantly evolving. In the UK, the introduction of the new FCA Consumer Duty Guidelines that came into effect on July 31, 2023, presented a significant challenge to the industry, demanding enhanced vigilance and sensitivity towards customer vulnerabilities.
Xdroid’s advanced VoiceAnalytics solution made it possible for Principal Insurance to adapt to the new guidelines seamlessly. The solution employed sophisticated algorithms to detect over 130 keywords and phrases indicative of 14 different categories of customer vulnerability, ranging from financial distress to personal crises. This technological advancement has enabled Principal Insurance to not only meet but exceed the stringent compliance requirements. They were not only compliant but with the solution, they could also evidence the same for the authorities thereby avoiding millions in fines. Tracking customer vulnerabilities also helped them manage the stress levels of the agents who have to navigate through difficult situations. With VoiceAnalytics, Principal Insurance could foster a safer and more supportive environment for its customers and maintain a global compliance score of 90.89%.
Redefining Quality Assessment with Auto QA
The implementation of Auto QA was the second point of focus for this project. Xdroid’s technology facilitated the auto-scoring of over 31,000 calls, a task unattainable through manual analysis. By providing impartial scores for every call, the system ensured a comprehensive evaluation of agent performance, shedding light on areas of excellence and those needing improvement. Agents working remotely from home could self-coach and improve their performance based on the insights given by the solution. This objective assessment mechanism contributed to a remarkable 14% improvement in QA scores over just eight months (from October 2022 to May 2023), culminating in an impressive overall performance rating of 92% for Principal Insurance.
