Case Study
Driving Growth with Efficient Operations for an Energy Provider
Overview
This client was a new entrant into the energy market and a non-profit organisation. They quickly became a popular provider and, as a result, started experiencing exceptional levels of growth. In turn, the customer service requirements were increased. They began to realize that they didn’t have the in-house capabilities to cope with this new demand and that they needed an experienced outsourcer that could quickly and efficiently support them.
Client Needs
The client needed a partner with the expertise and experience to support their rapid growth. Initially, their focus was on outsourcing billing and back-office operations. However, as their white label business expanded, their needs grew to include flexible inbound call handling and complaint management services.
Our ability to adapt and stay flexible was a key factor in their decision to work with us. Rapid growth can quickly become overwhelming without the right processes in place. To help the client navigate this challenge, we provided regular business intelligence and detailed reporting, offering insights not only to optimize the processes we managed but also to enhance the efficiency of their internal teams.
