Scale customer ops, dispatch, billing, credit, records, and regulatory reporting with staffing or outcome SLAs. We bring storm/outage playbooks, QA, and dashboards for predictable performance.
Typical Pain Points
- Storm/outage surges overwhelm contact centers and digital support
- Field dispatch scheduling inefficiency; missed ETAs and repeat visits
- Billing exceptions (meter reads, estimated bills, TOU changes) and disputes
- Collections/credit workflows with compliance and hardship program handling
- Asset/records digitization and as-built documentation gaps
- Regulatory filings & reporting timeliness; audit evidence fragmentation
Roles We Staff
- CX Agents (voice/chat), Outage Communications Desk, QA Monitors
- Dispatch/Scheduling Coordinators, Work Order Admins
- Billing Exceptions Analysts, Revenue Protection Assistants
- Credit/Collections Reps, Payment Arrangement Specialists
- Records Techs, GIS/As-built Admin, Document Controllers
- Regulatory Reporting Assistants, Data Ops & Evidence Stewards
Outcomes & Examples
- Outage mode: ASA < 60s, deflection macros, and accurate ETR messaging
- Dispatch adherence: pre-visit checks and confirmations reduce repeat visits
- Billing desk: exception cycle time ; rebill accuracy with QA sampling
- Collections: compliant scripts; promise-to-pay adherence and hardship routing
- Records program: 100% chain-of-custody and metadata QA for as-builts
