ICON Communication Centres Wins Gold Award at the ECCCSA 2019

ICON Communication Centres s.r.o. (ICON), a leading supplier of business process outsourcing (BPO) services, proudly won the European Contact Centre and Customer Service Awards (ECCCSA) coveted Gold Award for the ‘Best Implementation of Technology’. The award recognised ICON’s success in devising and deploying a technology solution  that unified the disparate systems of its client, a leading supplier of global payment solutions for car parks around the world. This is the second year in a row that ICON has won the Gold award in this category, the first announced of the evening.

“It was tough winning an ECCCSA this year. Organisations across Europe are doing outstanding things to improve the employee experience, and the ramping up of technology focused on progressing the customer experience in line with customer demand is incredible. Winners this year are fine examples of how the customer contact industry is pushing boundaries and delivering excellence.”
Ann-Marie Stagg, Chair of the Judges, ECCCSA

Judges recognised how ICON streamlined the management of incoming customer inquiries across thousands of parking sites worldwide to positively impact the customer experience of car park users in Europe, South America, and the United States. ICON effected significant improvement to the client’s customer experience and return on investment.

ICON’s goal for its business is to empower technology and talent that best connects global brands with local customers. In securing the Gold Award, the contact centre is further solidifying the realisation of their momentum within the outsourcing industry.

“This BPO solution was driven entirely by ICON’s Operations and Customer Success teams. They identified how technology integrated with talented colleagues could provide a vastly improved customer experience for our client. The consultative value of ICON’s mature and experienced workforce was vital to the success of this transformation as it was deployed across multiple global markets and languages.”
Helen Hickin, Managing Director, ICON Communication Centres
