SOUTH PORTLAND, Maine--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 5, 2015--
WEX
(NYSE: WEX), a leading provider of corporate payment solutions, today
announced it was recognized by BenchmarkPortal for having one of the top
25 medium-sized call centers for 2015 in North America.
This is the fifth year in a row that WEX participated in the Annual Call
Center Benchmarking Study. The study ranks the best 100 call centers in
the following categories: small (5-99 agents), medium (100-249 agents),
and large (250+ agents).
"We are extremely proud of our contact center associates for being
recognized as one of the best call center teams in North America,” said
Steve Crowley, senior vice president of shared services and CIO at WEX.
“WEX is dedicated to continuous improvement and delivering exceptional
care to our customers. We consider this part of our business crucial to
our success and this award reinforces our commitment and the impact of
our team's efforts.”
“WEX’s contact center is among the best in its industry,” said Bruce
Belfiore, senior research executive at the Center for Customer-Driven
Quality and CEO of BenchmarkPortal. “This award was granted on the basis
of objective, metrics-driven performance. WEX stood tall against its
competitors according to the world’s largest database of call center
metrics. This is not easy to do, and we congratulate them on their
accomplishment.”
The Top 100 competition compares the performance of contact centers
throughout North America by evaluating their key metrics against
industry peers. Entries are all cross-checked, validated and approved by
certified call center experts, and the resulting submissions are scored
on the basis of both quality and cost efficiency.
Since the Top 100 process is based entirely on statistical comparison to
the world’s largest and most respected database of call center metrics,
this competition can objectively identify centers who are achieving
superior results both in financial and qualitative terms.
