Number of simultaneous contacts configurable (1-6) by supervisor One voice contact Up to 5 multimedia contacts in any combination configurable by supervisor Time delay, before “Additional Contact” is presented is configurable Agent is automatically set to Ready while handling a voice call, chat or contact Contacts will flash to indicate agent action required In a multiple contact handling scenario - the agent can indeed be 'actively' involved in only one customer interaction at a time - the other interaction sessions are in the background as tabs on the agent desktop. Agents need to be aware of customer communication activity in the sessions that they are not actively working on. +++In Avaya Aura® Contact Center, a visual alert is flashed to agents when a customer has entered information in an Instant Messaging or chat window. This allows the agents to work on multiple interactions yet promptly respond to the customer ensuring a satisfactory customer experience. 14 14 14

19 Outbound Dialling Features: Preview and Progressive Outbound solutions
Benefits: Increased customer satisfaction Timely information and deadline-reminders reduces defaults and penalties Higher revenues and profitability Alert customers to take action when they are more likely to Increase collections Greater efficiency & lower costs Shape the type and amount of incoming contacts and Encourage self service Features: Preview and Progressive Outbound solutions Blended inbound/outbound solution Full campaign control Multiple numbers per contact Multiple Time-zone support Web services support Preview and Progressive Outbound are available with Avaya Aura® Contact Center. In Preview outbound the agent has the option to decide whether or not to accept and connect to an outbound contact after reviewing the data that is presented. With Progressive Outbound, the agent gets to review the data before the call is automatically connected. The Outbound Campaign Management tool is a functional component that is used to create, modify, and monitor up to 20 simultaneous outbound campaigns. Imagine authorities have set up a campaign to call people who have outstanding fine payments for tickets they have received. Now if someone clears dues, that person should of course be removed from the call list. This can be done through Web Services. The application that administers the payments updates the call list of the outbound campaign. +++The fact agents get the necessary information before they connect or are connected to the customers, will enhance customer satisfaction for sure. But the solution has a lot more to offer. Multiple Time zone support allows nationwide and international customers to manage campaigns effectively from a time perspective, the support for multiple numbers per customer, and of course with Outbound a contact center can greatly improve agent productivity and occupancy by triggering outbound contacts, when there is a low volume of incoming contacts. 19

Both Geographic and Campus redundancy configurations are supported to allow for Business Continuity in disaster scenarios. In a Geographic redundancy scenario the primary and secondary server do not have to be installed in the same location and are connected through a Wide Area Network connection. In a Campus redundant installation, the two servers are connected through a Local Area Network connection. Failover for the Session Manager based Communication Manager configuration is sub-second. For the MBT, CS 1000 and Communication Manager with SES setups the failover time is 3 minutes, while the failover time for the CS 1000 AML configuration is 30 seconds. 43

52 Adjunct Routing for CC Elite – Sample Call Flow
Incoming call lands on a call vector within Call Center Elite and collects customer entered digits or User-to-User Information (UUI). Vector routes a call to AACC / Communication Control Toolkit (CCT) using an “Adjunct Route” command. Sample CCT client application receives route request event and extracts caller entered digits, UUI, ANI (and/or CLID), etc. Caller entered digits (or other call related data) are used to look up a database and retrieve customer reference, the reference is added to the call as UUI. A “preferred skill supporting “more valued clients” could be retrieved from the database and attached to better handle the arriving ACD call. The CCT client application routes the call to an Elite vector which in turn distributes the call to a staffed (logged-in) agent. The Avaya Aura Agent Desktop (AAAD) receives the call and Screen-Pops based on the UUI data and customer reference.
