One of the largest communication companies in the world, with offices in over 150 locations globally needed an efficient customer engagement platform with an effective sales-flow channel. There was a business need to increase sales, reduce response time and increase revenues by 27%
THE CHALLENGE
The business challenge was multi-fold creating a sub-optimal customer experience:
-
Increase sales by 3-6 % on a platform lacking scalability and resilience.
-
Existing monolithic architecture struggling to deliver during high call volumes, which in turn affected user-experience.
-
New environment setup time ~6-8 weeks, severely impacting schedules, costs and customer satisfaction.
-
Lack of capabilities to analyze customer behavior metrics critical to investments in the marketing stream.
THE DT ADVANTAGE
The strategic approach was to build a distributed, scalable and resilient cloud-native platform, through a multi-pronged approach.
-
Reengineered digital architecture from monolithic architecture, disintegrating them into 16 discrete functional microservices, deployed through Docker/ Kubernetes cloud cluster.
-
Built a distributed, scalable and resilient cloud-native platform with <250 ms response time, and 25000 transactions per minute capabilities
-
Deployed an Open APIs platform with 109 endpoints, released in 4 phases targeting a variety of stakeholders (internal, partners, agents and public) Captured, measured and analyzed customer behavior metrics to understand user sentiment, through an Adobe analytics module.
As a result of this implementation, the application today enjoys a high rating amongst users, with over 200,000 downloads achieved so far.
