Does every call center in the Philippines pass call quality standards?

OABPO Blog Team Published on January 13, 2014

It is a must for ever call center in the Philippines to adhere to international laws and standards to guarantee that calls are delivered with quality and with consideration of the rights and convenience of the parties at both ends of the line.

Technologies for courteous and productive outbound calls

For call centers that provide telemarketing services, automatic telephone dialing systems (ATDS) or “robo-calling” is only used if the recipient granted the call centers consent to do so. They also make it a point to be updated about FCC rules on information disclosure, call scheduling, and blocked lists to avoid violating the rights of the call recipients.

In addition, most outbound call centers invest in predictive dialing software to increase call productivity. This technology estimates the frequency of calls, dials a list of phone numbers, and then connects answered calls to your sales agents, thus lowering their downtime.

Workstation essentials

Online outsourcing portal Call Center Helper lists technology as one of the key operation components of a typical call center, and the Philippines’ outsourcing industry also sees this as a critical function in their contact center operations.
These are the ideal qualities of basic call handling and management tools that Philippine call centers use to ensure the agents’ efficiency:

  1. Good quality headset

    Choosing the right headset for your call center should depend on the technical setup in your workplace. Teams using a softphone application on their computers will need compatible headsets with either USB or 3.5mm audio ports, while those using physical phone units must, of course, require headsets with the matching connectors. In either case, the headsets you provide your agents should be comfortable to wear and produce high quality audios. If you have the budget, you can also splurge on units with noise reducing features, which will prove valuable in a call center’s noisy environment.

  2. Ergonomic keyboard and mouse

    As agents spend their entire shift using a computer, their keyboards should be designed to minimize repetitive motions and therefore prevent injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, in the long run.

  3. Comfortable chairs

    The chair must have an ergonomic design to promote good posture and health. It should give your employees enough room to move and work comfortably. Additionally, it should not come in the way of other equipment. Otherwise, the distraction and discomfort it gives will steal the call center agents’ focus from their tasks.

  4. LCD monitors

    Compared to plasma and the outdated CRT computer monitors, LCDs consume less power, and they are easy on the eyes. Make sure that the monitor is large enough to display your customers’ information, as skimming between multiple screens can confuse your agents and lengthen call time.

If you are planning to outsource call center services to the Philippines, partner with an outsourcing firm that meets the international standards and uses the advisable equipment mentioned above. In doing so, you can be assured that your customers have a clear and pleasant call experience each time they transact with your representatives.

Drop It Like It's Hot: The OABPO Weight Loss Challenge began with an early morning wellness session hosted by the outsourcing company's Clinic Services with guest speaker, fitness coach JR Madriaga. Both the morning and evening sessions were streamed online for those who could not be physically present.

After discussing the rules of the challenge and weigh-in schedules, Coach JR talked about some of the most effective methods of losing weight. He highlighted the healthiest ways for the participants to get their weight loss journey started.

A high-energy Zumba session soon followed the discussion. It not only served as a fun way to start the challenge but also emphasized the importance of incorporating physical activity into daily routines.

More than 80 employees from both Open Access BPO Makati and Davao signed up for the three-month weight loss challenge. The grand prize, originally P25,000, has since been doubled to P50,000, with the winner to be announced in next year's Kick Off Party.

Our dedicated Xiamen and Taipei teams always go #AboveAndBeyond for our customers. To show our appreciation for their hard work, we spent during #CSWeek treating them to some fun and games at the office.

They even took part in the special video challenge to share how they show their dedication in customer service. And of course, they had a special dinner last Friday to close the festivities.
