Customer Experience Outsourcers Launch Intelligent and Self-service Options to Improve Business Outcomes in Europe

Leave a comment

Outsourcers integrate advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to improve the customer journey and agent experience, finds Frost & Sullivan

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 5, 2020 — Frost & Sullivan’s recent analysis, European Customer Experience Outsourcing Services Market, 2020, reveals that outsourcers are increasingly relying on advanced technologies to meet client requirements in the customer experience (CX) outsourcing services industry. The European market is mature and characterized by demands for specific languages, cultural affinity, and nearshoring. COVID-19 has adversely affected the industry in 2020 and Frost & Sullivan expects total market revenue to reach €16.23 billion, a 7.5% decline. Outsourcers, however, display exceptional agility and flexibility when meeting the business continuity challenge. Assuming a reversal of fortune in the next 3 to 4 months, Frost & Sullivan expectsthe market to recover to €20.03 billion by 2024. To stay relevant in the rapidly evolving market, outsourcers must develop new tools to address digitally native customers, cybersecurity challenges, and business continuity as a service.

"By integrating advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, outsourcers transform the customer journey. Offering customized, automated, and self-service solutions, outsourcers have moved beyond cost and labor arbitrage to instead focus on seamless, omni-channel, value-added experiences," said Deepali Sathe, Information & Communication Technologies Senior Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. "Customers have evolved and expect intelligent interactions and immediate responses. True partnerships developing between clients and outsourcers will enhance the agent experience, mitigate complexity, and encourage empathy."

Leonardo Sampieri, Information & Communication Technologies Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan, added, "Sectors such as telecom, banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI),  and travel and hospitality will see the most changes and will need service providers to help them drive a digital transformation in CX. Healthcare is an area of fast growth, and with COVID-19, the vertical is expected to see rapid growth across Europe that significantly affects outsourcers."

Some of the other areas of focus that can help outsourcers gain competitive advantage are:

  • Cybersecurity and customer trust: European customers in particular are more concerned about data privacy. To enhance CX, companies need to strike a balance between user friendliness and effectiveness.
  • Personalization: Utilize technology and expertise to enhance CX outcomes with customization. CX reflects the effectiveness of operational excellence and outsourcers must integrate technologies that enable better management of customer sentiments.
  • Partnerships: Focus heavily on partnering and expanding the ecosystem. Thinking beyond products and services to identify other important parameters to differentiate in a rapidly commoditizing market will require a flexible and innovative strategy. 
  • Portfolio diversification: Outsourcers that cater to the diverse requirements of specific verticals will enjoy immense growth prospects, as it adds another dimension to the overall value proposition and extends ease of deployment.

European Customer Experience Outsourcing Services Market, 2020 is the latest addition to Frost & Sullivan’s Information & Communication Technologies research and analysis available through the Frost & Sullivan Leadership Council, which helps organizations identify a continuous flow of growth opportunities to succeed in an unpredictable future.

CNN launches new series ‘Tech for Good’ showcasing the transformational power of technology

Leave a comment

HONG KONG, Aug. 5, 2020 — This month, CNN launches a brand new cross-platform series which showcases life-changing technologies that are helping people overcome personal hurdles and take their passions to new heights.

CNN launches new series ‘Tech for Good’ showcasing the transformational power of technology
CNN launches new series ‘Tech for Good’ showcasing the transformational power of technology

‘Tech For Good’ is a television and digital series which sees CNN anchor and correspondent Kristie Lu Stout share a collection of intimate, inspiring and transformative stories from every corner of the globe.

In the first of four 30-minute shows, CNN meets five incredible artists who have harnessed the power of tech for creative expression.

Lu Stout first speaks with South Korean percussionist Kyungho Jeon, whose blindness meant his dream of playing in an orchestra initially seemed out of reach. Jeon then co-created the haptic baton, a wearable device that converts movements into vibrations – allowing him to be led by a conductor and perform with an ensemble.  

Based in the coastal town of Santa Cruz, California, artist Colleen Flanigan has seen first-hand the threats facing marine biodiversity. CNN learns how Flanigan has merged her two worlds of art and activism by using the Google Tilt Brush to design reef habitats for endangered organisms. The system allows users to create 3D imagery with a controller that mimics a paintbrush – bringing ideas to life, literally.

Assistive technology is a rapidly growing industry. Lu Stout meets Sarah Ezekiel, whose ALS – a condition that has rendered her unable to speak or move – has not stopped her from creating. Ezekiel uses EyeGaze technology from Tobii Dynavox to paint with the movement of her eyes. She shares the artistic processes behind her artworks, and explains how the EyeGaze device has allowed her to take back control of her life.

For filmmaker Chase Burton, technology has provided a whole new way to experience music. CNN joins him working on a musical score, using a vibrating suit which stimulates parts of his body allowing him to feel, rather than hear the sounds – because Burton is deaf. He describes the technology not as compensatory, but as a gateway to an entirely new, holistic method for appreciating music – for both deaf and hearing audiences.

Finally, ‘Tech for Good’ catches up with Indian YouTube megastar, Gangavva. The farmer’s life was changed by technology when she started appearing in the video series ‘My Village Show’, which propelled her to internet stardom and has since attracted millions of views, subscribers, and generated a steady income for her entire village.

Perfect World CEO Dr. Robert H. Xiao: Content Consumption to Change Dramatically Thanks to 5G

Leave a comment

SHANGHAI, Aug. 5, 2020 — On July 30, Dr. Robert H. Xiao, CEO of Perfect World, delivered a keynote speech at the 2020 China Digital Entertainment Congress (CDEC), discussing the changes 5G has brought to the digital cultural and creative industry, and, most notably, to games.

Perfect World CEO Xiao Hong delivers keynote speech

Dr. Xiao explained that the digital transformation of the game industry is the current trend, while 5G is a new technical extension and foundation for the next stage of growth across the industry. Content consumption will change dramatically as a result of the imaginative possibilities brought about by 5G. To cite an example, new technologies such as 5G+AI and VR/AR will instigate disruptive changes across traditional cultural and entertainment communication channels and scenarios, generating new expectations in terms of content and experience, further promoting innovation in the integration of technology and content as well as the digitization and intelligentization of those channels and scenarios, while driving a new consumption experience.

Dr. Robert H. Xiao took e-sports as an illustration, expressing the opinion that with 5G, in tandem with cloud computing and increasingly mature virtual reality technologies, both the participation and the business model of e-sports in the future will become "hyper-interactive". With wearable devices, the audience can directly participate in the competition and even interact with the contestants within the competition environment in real time. This will be a truly innovative new approach when compared with how one approaches traditional sports. In turn, the experimental application of new technologies in e-sports will further activate and nurture the development of even newer technologies, breaking the current e-sports business model.

In addition, the possibilities for new media and other applications as a result of the popularization of 5G will move the user’s attention completely from offline to online. Xiao said that businesses must find new ways to interact with users, and that a wave of creative ideas around the new digital technologies will give rise to a whole new array of approaches for deeply interacting with users, bringing to the fore an important force empowering the transformation of the industry.

The Philippines Armed Forces & Police Mutual Benefit Association Creates New Digital Loan Product in Under a Week with OutSystems

Leave a comment

MANILA, Philippines, Aug. 3, 2020 — OutSystems today announced that Philippines financial solutions provider, Armed Forces & Police Mutual Benefit Association Inc. (AFPMBAI) is using the OutSystems low-code application development platform to launch a new loan product to continue serving its members amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

AFPMBAI provides insurance solutions and personal loans to uniformed personnel and their families. Traditionally, the majority of work was done face-to-face, with advisors conducting assessments and approving loans and policies across its 18 locations. However, due to the escalating COVID-19 situation, the Philippines entered lockdown and the company was forced to digitalize its physical sales process in a matter of days. The lockdown affected both daily operations and the income stream at AFPMBAI, as the government placed restrictions on financial services companies’ ability to collect premiums and loan repayments. This forced AFPMBAI to find a new income stream to protect the long-term future of the business and continue to support the Philippines’ uniformed services during this period.

"We had to act quickly to maintain operations. Many people depend on us for loans and insurance, and we had to ensure they had access to finances, more so during this crucial period," says Antonio Hornilla, Chief Information Officer, AFPMBAI. "The new digital loan product is highly competitive and unique in the marketplace – higher loanable amounts, lower interest rates and more flexible terms. The product represented a lot of work. What we achieved with OutSystems was impressive, as it’s quick to code and very fast to test—we couldn’t have achieved that with our legacy platform."

By employing the OutSystems application development platform, the team was able to turn the new product idea into a fully functioning digital product in under a week, collaborating over video calls for real-time tweaks and testing simultaneously as they worked. The initial system was built in just four days, with two days of subsequent testing to get it ready for launch. The stakeholders from various departments could then access the platform and provide feedback on the new application. The launch of the new digital loan product was a resounding success. AFPMBAI had initially set aside around USD5 million, expecting to offer the loan for a month. However, with the combination of favourable terms and a user-friendly application interface, the entire portfolio sold out in just two weeks. The flexibility and speed of OutSystems development was tested as the team was tasked to rapidly build a temporary integration with the old system, and get the missing data copied across.

"Agility plays a critical role when responding to community needs during this unprecedented time," said Mark Weaser, APAC Vice President of OutSystems. "This project with AFPMBAI not only offers the ability to deliver applications faster and more efficiently than ever before, but it goes to show how OutSystems empowers them to be responsive and deliver custom solutions to their customers at scale."

The team at AFPMBAI now have the ideal foundation to continue offering vital financial support to uniformed service members throughout the Philippines, especially during this challenging period and sound foundation upon which to deliver and adapt new digital products to market faster post-pandemic.

About OutSystems

Thousands of customers worldwide trust OutSystems, the number one low-code platform for rapid application development. Engineers with an obsessive attention to detail crafted every aspect of the OutSystems platform to help organisations build enterprise-grade apps and transform their business faster. OutSystems is the only solution that combines the power of low-code development with advanced mobile capabilities, enabling visual development of entire applications that easily integrate with existing systems.
