Hurtigruten achieves 30% SLA improvement and 35% productivity gain with Verint Workforce Management

Hurtigruten's legacy on-premises workforce management software lacked the flexibility and functionality needed to forecast staffing for its global network of agents, increasing cost and complexity and risking missed calls and lost sales.

Outcome

Hurtigruten achieved a 30% improvement in SLAs—calls answered within 60 seconds rose from 60% to up to 90%—and increased productivity by 35%, going live worldwide in one month.

What failed first

The previous scheduling solution provided only limited, mostly manual reporting, and the old workforce management system was too outdated and inflexible to meet modern contact center needs.
