Recently CCNG members and area contact center professionals were invited to the Alcon North America Customer Service Operations Center in Fort Worth Texas for a group discussion into Alcon's journey of digital transformation over the years. Below are some of the highlights shared at the event as provided by a CCNG member in attendance.
Understanding The Intricacies of Contact Center Automation Contact center automation involves automating and optimizing customer service through the strategic use of technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), InteractiveVoiceResponse (IVR) systems, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning (ML), Robotic Process Automation (RPA) etc.
We understand that integrating a new solution, whether that is AI, a point solution, an IVR, or anything else, is not an easy process. Call routing, interactivevoiceresponse and voice-based chatbots are a few examples of that technology. Implementation takes time, and change is difficult to manage.
In a recent panel discussion with CCNG members on the topic of 2021 Contact Center Predictions, Ron shares a few perspectives learned from this year.

The drive toward self-service is a reality and with good reason, as customers want self-service. TWO-PRONGED APPROACH SAVES MORE COST WITH LOWER HEADCOUNT Companies are spending more money on self-service. It’s here to stay, and it will get better over time. The business climate continues to rapidly change.
Interactivevoice recognition (IVR) systems empower customers to navigate menus and resolve queries effortlessly, enhancing self-service capabilities and reducing wait times. For the past several years Patrick has been an active CCNG member offering insights and perspectives to the benefit of his peers.
Generative AI is responsive and can generate high-quality text, images, responses, and content and utilize logic based on how it is trained. This is the foundation for AI agents, conversational AI, AI-assisted IVR, and a lot of the customer-facing AI you hear about. How does AI transform self-service in contact centers?
According to Gartner, by 2020 customers will manage 85% of their interactions without any human involvement. Through better web-based content, enhanced IVR, the Internet of Things (IoT), virtual agents and, yes, chatbots. How is that possible? They are indeed a great example of intelligent technology designed for a specific purpose.
