eLoyalty Announces Integrated Contact Solutions Contracts
Company Signs $7.6 Million of New Contracts
LAKE FOREST, IL--(MARKET WIRE)--Feb 14, 2008 -- eLoyalty Corporation (NasdaqGM:ELOY - News), a leading enterprise Customer Relationship Management services and solutions company, today announced that in the first six weeks of the current quarter, it has signed 4 significant Integrated Contact Solutions contracts. These contracts underscore eLoyalty's strong capabilities to design, implement, operate and support complex Contact Center and Speech Enabled solutions that deliver tangible financial value to clients along with an improved experience for their customers.
These contracts, totaling approximately $7.6 million, consist of:
-- The expansion of a customer relationship contract to design,
implement, and support centralized call treatment and enterprise call
routing for one of the nation's largest retailers. The solution centrally
answers calls destined for any of the retailer's over-800 stores through a
speech enabled application and then routes the calls to the appropriate
department within the store or to a central call center. This solution
helps ensure that all customer calls receive exceptional service and, for
the retailer, reduces operating costs and increases direct sales revenue.
-- The renewal of an agreement to provide maintenance and support
services to a Fortune 50 health and wellness company. Under this
agreement, eLoyalty will continue to monitor and support a complex multi-
site voice architecture that covers over 5,000 agents, multiple vendors and
industry leading technologies.
-- A new contract with a regional Blue Cross/Blue Shield healthcare
insurer to design, implement and support a 260 user enterprise call center
solution based on Voice over IP (VoIP) technology from Cisco Systems and
Calabrio. The solution will include intelligent voice response (IVR) self-
service, call routing, a screen pop of data for the agent, advanced
reporting, workforce management and VoIP telephony capabilities.
-- A contract for the design phase of an enterprise VoIP implementation
for a very large distributor of laboratory equipment, supplies and
chemicals. The solution is being designed for the company's 6 North
American contact centers to improve customer service and reduce operating
costs.
These contracts are comprised of the following:
-- $4.0 million Managed Services that is expected to be recognized over
the next twelve months;
-- $2.3 million Consulting Services that is expected to be recognized
over the next two quarters; and
