City of CharlotteRapid Adoption, Access to Experts, and Significant Cost Savings Bellverie Ross, Senior Program Manager, City of Charlotte “When the City of Charlotte received news that it had been selected to host the 2012 Democratic National Convention, we had to act quickly to make sure our 3-1-1 contact center and other contact centers could support the increased call volume from 50,000 visitors. Maintaining sophisticated contact centers require hiring or training multiple people with different skill sets, and we had neither the time nor the budget. Working with NWN, a hosted service provider, gave us access to trained professionals with the depth and breadth to make sure the contact centers were available and provided the latest capabilities for citizen self-service and agent efficiency to answer the more than 3 million calls processed annually. We’re saving at least $100,000 annually—$500,000 if you count not having to hire on premise telephony engineers.”
