NEWS RELEASE...2003 Yorkshire Building Society Chooses BSL as Partner to Develop Quality Programme

Yorkshire Building Society, one of the largest mutual organisations in the UK has entered into a new partnership with Business Systems to expand its call recording capacity at its Member (Customer) Contact Centres in Bradford. The contact centre supports 120 agents across two sites.

The member contact centre handles incoming calls, and has been growing rapidly over the last two years, which has subsequently led to Yorkshire Building Society outgrowing their existing, non-scaleable call recording platform.

After researching four suppliers, Yorkshire Building Society chose the NiceLog recording platform from Business Systems as well as the NiceCLS, enabling connection to the company’s database for fast call retrieval.

Yorkshire Building Society needed to upgrade to capture all the calls and with the old system it was difficult to retrieve calls. Each time team leaders attempted to find a call, it could take up to 15 minutes, that is if they managed to locate it at all. Within weeks of the original installation by Business Systems the recording system was rolled out to other independent help lines within the organisation, once these separate departments saw how successful the Member Contact Centre implementation was. Yorkshire Building Society is now recording approximately 200 people.

"The team leaders find the new system from Business Systems much easier to use, to handle disputes and manage their day-to-day monitoring. By filtering searches they are able to find the call more or less straight away." Comments, Chris Mason, Resource & Support Manager at Yorkshire Building Society.

Yorkshire Building Society, since selecting the NiceLog has expanded the call recording solution by implementing NiceUniverse. NiceUniverse from Business Systems offers a suite of applications to enhance their existing quality assurance programme through automating scheduling of calls, online evaluations and integrated reporting.

Chris states: "The call recording system has become a key tool for the team leaders, enabling them to easily pick up on training or coaching issues any agent may have. Agents have had no issues with being recorded, as they know it is to protect their interests, it is now second nature to them."

The NiceUniverse application enables Yorkshire Building Society to evaluate and report on different aspects of calls. It is a powerful tool which aids the quality and coaching of the staff, enabling supervisors and managers to drill down and focus on skill gaps in individuals, or the contact centre as a whole. It also helps Yorkshire Building Society to measure and report on how effective their training is.

Stephen Thurston, Director and Co-Founder of Business Systems comments: "We expect the partnership between Business Systems and Yorkshire Building Society to be long-standing, working with them to further develop their return-on-investment. The implementation at Yorkshire Building Society adds to the ever-increasing portfolio of large financial institutions that have chosen Business Systems over the last fifteen years to meet their call recording requirements."
