Call Center Consolidation

By: Lorna Mclaren

There has been a growing trend in Call Center Consolidation recently.

This has been due to a number of different factors but the main one is cost. If an organisation offers call center services with offices all over the country then this can mean that the cost of maintaining the call centers becomes too excessive.

Call Center Consolidation obviously decreases the amount of money that the company has to spend on office space. The cost of renting call center premises is often far outweighing the profit contribution that the call center actually has and it makes good business sense for the company to perform a call center consolidation.

The people who work in a call center are obviously going to be affected by a call center consolidation. Interestingly, it is not always a negative impact on existing employees. If a call center operative continues their employment at the call center after the consolidation then it is highly likely that a lot of their colleagues have not. This leads to more opportunities for the remaining call center operatives to achieve higher targets that they would otherwise not have been able to due to the amount of competition between operatives for customers or clients.

Of course, there will be many operators who will not be able to stay working for the company after a call center consolidation has taken place because of their relocation being impossible.

Sadly, there are a large number of companies who have decided to perform a call center consolidation across countries and not just states. Almost without exception, this type of call center consolidation means that the work is carried out in another country that has much cheaper labor and real estate costs.

Many financial companies are moving towards this type of service and it remains to be seen whether this is of a benefit to their customers.
