Business Challenges

A global BPO company provides customer experience solutions that span the entire customer lifecycle and has many jobs to handle. The company wanted to enable its agents to solve issues faster and enhance the customer experience. It desired to

  • Reduce the average time spent by an agent in responding to a query.
  • provide agents with quick access to the knowledge base and necessary applications to resolve issues faster.

Solution

We implemented an intelligent BOT with chat interface that was equipped with state-of-the-art technical features that included:

  • BROWSER PLUGIN – Bot is deployed on the agent screen via browser plugin.
  • POWERED WITH NLU – Bot reads through the message from user and understands the query and classifies it.
  • KNOWLEDGE BASE INTEGRATION – Bot searches for the appropriate resolution workflow.
  • GUIDED CONVERSATION – Bot provides a step by step guidance to the agent for resolution.
  • PRE-DESIGNED TEMPLATES – Bot provides the agent with templates for the closing message.
It is powered with artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language understanding (NLU) capabilities and uses a chat interface to interact with the agents.

Results

Agent Assist bot could understand natural language, understand enterprise-specific knowledge and respond intelligently based on the context by pulling the data from multiple backend sources.

  • Increased response rate and efficacy of the agents by enabling them to access key information quickly and easily.
  • The expected average response time of the agents is reduced to less than 12 mins.
  • 40% improvement in average time to respond to a query.
By enabling the agents with easy access to resolution workflows, the bot helped agents respond to and resolve issues faster. Overall, the agent assist bot is enabling the organization to improve productivity and experiences, and long-term profitability.
