ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nexidia, a leading provider of customer interaction analytics solutions for business transformation, today announced that Gerber Life Insurance is extending its use of the company’s Interaction Analytics solution with an on premise deployment to better manage agent compliance and performance in their contact center. In addition, the company is retaining Nexidia Managed Analytic Services, designed to help customers get the maximum benefit from their interaction analytics implementations.
Gerber Life is the leading provider of juvenile life insurance policies in the US. The company's portfolio includes juvenile life insurance, the “Grow-Up Plan,” a whole life policy for children, the “College Plan,” an endowment life insurance policy, and various insurance policies for adults. Gerber Life maintains a state of the art contact center at its facilities in Michigan, which serves more than 3 million policyholders.
Gerber Life Insurance recognizes the importance of understanding the reasons both existing and potential policyholders contact their service center and what steps can be taken to improve these interactions. During their current engagement with Nexidia, Gerber Life has been able to uncover business intelligence contained within their calls. This has allowed them to improve business processes that led to higher call deflection rates and decreased policy cancellations, all while improving the overall customer experience. Results like these, coupled with their improved ability to manage agent performance, were key to Gerber Life’s decision to extend their investment with Nexidia.
“Nexidia helps us to unlock the crucial business intelligence hidden inside of customer and agent interactions,” said Bob McDonald, vice president of Contact Center, Gerber Life Insurance. “By further extending our use of Nexidia solutions we are gaining valuable insights needed to ensure every customer call is optimized.”
Going forward, the new software will be used to identify opportunities to improve First Call Resolution (FCR), internal sales processes and sales effectiveness. Additionally, the company will continue to identify coaching opportunities that allow for reduced agent non-talk time as well as uncover cross-selling opportunities. With a laser focus on superior customer experience and agent performance, Gerber Life will work to continuously improve their self service systems and further enhance such things as an agent’s ability to move potential policyholders through the application process more simply and easily.
“Gerber Life Insurance’s commitment to interaction analytics will continue to bring additional improvements to contact center operations,” said John Willcutts, president and chief executive officer of Nexidia Inc. “We believe our solution plays a key role in the company’s efforts to provide an excellent customer service experience.”
