Challenge	Digicel, a leading mobile network and home entertainment provider in the Caribbean, Latin America, and South Pacific regions, was facing a significant challenge in maintaining a positive customer experience as they scaled. The company was dealing with 800,000 live chat interactions and approximately 5.5 million phone interactions per year, with 90% of brand interactions happening via voice. This model was not sustainable for their efficiency goals, especially as digital interactions became more commonplace in their customers' lives. Digicel had disparate regional call centres with different skill sets, making it difficult to provide a consistent customer experience. The company needed a solution that would not only be easy to adopt internally but also by the customers, supporting the 5 local languages and the nuanced local requirements of the 30+ regional markets they were serving.
