The contract provides for Melbourne company Panviva’s BPG software to be implemented by Stellar to assist its customer service representatives to manage customer relationships on behalf of one of their major clients, a leading Australian gas and electricity retailer.
Stellar CIO Warwick Marx says SupportPoint was chosen to help reduce the time CSRs spend searching multiple databases and applications for information, improving customer experience and the efficiency of the service as well as reducing errors.
“A key reason for selecting SupportPoint is the fact that the system is agent specific, allowing Stellar to analyse how agents are using the system and develop targeted training and coaching programs to close skill gaps.
