Telindus to Standardize Global Corporate Support on Amdocs CRM

ST. LOUIS, and HEVERLEE, Belgium, Jan. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Amdocs , the leading provider of software and services to enable integrated customer management and the intentional customer experience(TM), and Telindus Group NV [Euronext Brussels: TEL], an international Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) company offering network-based solutions to communications, financial, governmental, transportation, healthcare and educational organizations, today announced that Telindus has signed a five- year contract with Amdocs to standardize its global customer help desk on Amdocs CRM software.

Under this contract, Telindus has already deployed Amdocs CRM in five out of the 14 countries in which it operates. Amdocs CRM is replacing Telindus's several disparate CRM support systems with a unified, state-of-the-art platform for a single view of the customer, which ensures improved customer service and makes it simpler and quicker for Telindus to introduce new services. In addition, a unified CRM platform based on Amdocs software allows Telindus to reap considerable savings in total cost of ownership (TCO) and ongoing maintenance costs. The company will also be able to decrease response time and first-call resolution time across its help desk operations.

"After a thorough evaluation process, we found Amdocs CRM to be the best the industry has to offer. Addressing 85 percent of our requirements with out-of-the-box functionality -- a very high percentage in the industry -- we completed the Belgium deployment in less than six weeks with the assistance of Ideal System, an experienced CRM system integrator," said Daniel Cauwenberghs, ICT Application manager Services at Telindus. "Amdocs CRM enables us to offer better customer support, as well as improves employee productivity, helping us grow our services business segment."

Amdocs CRM is ITIL-compliant. ITIL, or information technology infrastructure library, represents a set of best practices around the support and delivery of information technology (IT) services, including guidelines surrounding customer service and service management implementation, designed to align IT with business objectives. Standardizing on Amdocs CRM enables Telindus to adopt ITIL best practices for a more intimate relationship with its customers.

Telindus is deploying the following Amdocs CRM products to provide its customers and employees with an improved user experience, consistent across its locations around the world, helping the company to build more profitable relationships with its customers:

* Amdocs Customer Interaction Manager provides a web-based unified agent desktop for a 360-degree view of the customer and empowers first-call problem resolution as well as up-sell and cross-sell; * Amdocs Support manages all customer inquiries securely and efficiently, speeds up response times through a flexible trouble ticketing management system, as well as ensures profitability though advanced entitlement tracking capabilities, so that costly services are not given away for free; * Amdocs eSupport enables Telindus to offer its customers hierarchical self-service functionality over the web, enabling them to submit, search, track and view trouble ticket cases and attachments, as well as initiate calls with Telindus' customer support agents.

"Providing IT services to enterprise customers -- referred to as Information and Communications Technologies or ICT -- is a great source of alternative revenue for telecoms. Belgacom's acquisition of Telindus is the latest example of a telco building strength in ICT," said Michael Matthews, chief marketing officer at Amdocs. "Amdocs CRM allows Telindus to create a simplified and intentional customer experience in an increasingly complex environment, helping to nurture customer loyalty and employee satisfaction. With Amdocs CRM, not only can global providers realize TCO savings through a consolidated and scalable system, they can also increase revenues by offering significantly better service and service level agreements - and at higher rates."
