DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Intervoice, Inc. (NASDAQ: INTV - News) today announced that a major U.S. wireless telecommunications company has contracted it to provide speech-enabled self-service for its prepaid wireless subscribers. This long-standing customer chose Intervoice to replace its existing pre-paid self-service platform that was originally acquired from a competing vendor. The new contract is estimated to be worth $5.2 million. Citing competitive issues, the customer requested anonymity in this announcement.

“This wireless carrier is focused on delivering a consistent, award-winning customer experience across all channels. For the carrier to accomplish its goal, having a standard self-service capability across all channels is vital,” said Andrea Holko, Senior Vice President, Global Consulting Services, Intervoice. “Our collaborative relationship with this carrier allows us to bring together our deep expertise in voice user interface (VUI) design with the carrier’s depth of customer knowledge to deliver an unmatched level of excellence in application design and a dramatically improved experience for their subscribers.”

Standardizing on Intervoice for self-service can benefit the carrier by reducing call transfers, reducing risk of service outages, increasing call deflections and providing a universal support model across the entire self-service infrastructure. While at the same time, prepaid wireless subscribers also benefit from better intelligent routing and improved automation on a self-service call.

Intervoice said it is not unusual for the Company to receive large contracts. This contract or any other large contract is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s revenues or earnings for any fiscal quarter. Intervoice currently anticipates recognizing all of the revenue from this contract over four fiscal quarters, beginning with its next quarter that ends May 31, 2008.
