NICE Introduces Adaptive Workforce Optimization Powered by the Agent Persona

Adaptive WFO enables organizations to create personalized experiences for both service agents

and consumers in order to drive performance, reduce attrition, and improve customer experience

Paramus, New Jersey, November 2, 2015 – NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) today announced that it is transforming its approach to Workforce Optimization (WFO) by personalizing the organization-employee relationship in order to drive engagement and improve performance in the contact center.

Adaptive WFO creates a workforce planning, management and engagement environment that adapts in real time to the agent persona. These personas are generated based on advanced multi-channel analytics data, such as CSAT scores, average handles times (AHT), coaching results, first-contact resolution (FCR), tenure, past work experience and education.

This enables organizations to pinpoint agent behaviors, such as strengths and weaknesses, whether they perform better in the morning or the evening, and what incentives really motivate them. The persona is also determined by new data created by applying predictive analytics to customer interactions to identify and categorize all observed behaviors.

Companies can then match all of those factors with an understanding of the cross-channel customer journey, allowing them to establish dynamic, personalized processes, as well as an empowering working environment, that ultimately leads to better customer service.

This new approach to WFO will provide:

Increased service levels through flexible persona-based routing, scheduling and forecasting

Tailored onboarding and coaching that adjusts the learning path for each employee, automatically reducing manual processes

Improved CSAT through tighter alignment between customer experience and agent performance

Personalized engagement plans to improve employee retention

Miki Migdal, President of the NICE Enterprise Product Group

“Service agents personify the brand of any company as they have the greatest exposure to customers. This means that organizations must invest in engaging and empowering these employees at least as much as they invest in understanding their customers’ journey. The concept of Adaptive WFO focuses on personalizing all of the contact center processes that affect employee performance, from recruiting to scheduling and coaching, in order to drive greater improvements throughout the operation and help companies drive perfect experiences for their customers.”

Adaptive WFO will be first discussed in a series of webinars featuring leading industry analysts and NICE subject matter experts.

Nov. 3 – Donna Fluss, President of DMG Consulting LLC, will present: “Transform the Enterprise by Adapting to Next-Gen WFO Analytics”

Dec. 1 – Guest speaker Art Schoeller, Vice President and Principal Analyst at Forrester Research will discuss: “The Agent Journey Within the Contact Center”

NICE Actimize Case Management Survey Outlines the Top Drivers

for Unifying Financial Crime Risk Management

Research shows that non-integrated operational systems

contribute to weakened ability to uncover hidden crime

NEW YORK – November 11, 2015 – NICE Actimize, a NICE Systems (NASDAQ:NICE) business and the largest and broadest provider of a single financial crime, risk and compliance software platform for the financial services industry, announced the results of a financial crime operations survey conducted among professionals from large financial institutions this past summer. To gain a better understanding of the specific challenges financial institutions face in adopting a more integrated approach to operational preparedness, NICE Actimize focused its survey specifically on the global state of enterprise risk case management.

According to the survey, NICE Actimize found that the top three drivers for unifying financial crime and compliance risk management operations are reputational damage protection; transparency and regulatory scrutiny; and financial implications of crimes and fines. More than half (56%) of respondents said they are concerned about protecting their company’s reputation.

The survey also showed that among large financial institutions with at least $60 billion in assets, 53% had more than 10 analytic and/or detection systems and 31% had more than 20 systems. These disconnected solutions and the disparate activities associated with them not only affect efficiency, but also prevent financial institutions from uncovering hidden relationships that help identify crime, according to NICE Actimize.

As financial institutions try to manage all these varied systems and processes, they are encountering a range of obstacles. Respondents to the NICE Actimize survey found that for large institutions, the biggest challenges to achieving unified financial crime and compliance risk management are the consolidation of siloed systems (58%), possession of an organizational structure where different functions have varying or competing priorities (56%), and the integration of complex in-house systems (47%).

“With regulator focus on processes and controls, financial institutions have become motivated to increase the consistency and transparency of investigations, a process which is greatly simplified by the implementation of centralized case management,” said Chad Hetherington, Global Vice President & General Manager, Enterprise Risk Case Management, NICE Actimize. “While there is no regulation that says financial institutions have to look at all transactions centrally, those with centralized case management systems can standardize processes, be more responsive to regulators’ needs and better manage financial crime and compliance risks.”

The financial implications of crimes and fines are primary motivators for 45% of survey respondents to unify their financial crime risk management. Recent high-profile fines have reinforced the need for broader sharing of intelligence, especially cross border. Upwards of $184 billion in fines for regulatory violations has been paid by 46 big banks and two nonbanks since 2009, with 174 cases currently outstanding.

voice recording segments

Ra’anana, Israel, xxx 2015 – NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) announced today that it has again been acknowledged by DMG Consulting LLC as the worldwide leader in the contact center Workforce Optimization (WFO) market. According to DMG’s 2015 WFO Mid-Year Market Share Report, NICE holds a 38.4 and 39.1 percent market share in the contact center WFO and contact center voice recording segments, respectively.

This report comes after NICE’s launch of a new approach for workforce optimization - Adaptive WFO. This approach creates a workforce planning, management and engagement environment that adapts in real time to personalized agent profiles, or personas. These personas are generated based on advanced multi-channel analytics data, such as CSAT scores, average handles times, tenure and past work experience.

“We are proud to continue in our role as the leader in the contact center WFO market,” said Miki Migdal, President of the NICE Enterprise Product Group. “NICE is committed to helping businesses deliver perfect customer experiences and Adaptive WFO is a testament to this pledge, as it engages and empowers the workforce, which is really the nucleus of successful contact center operations. By focusing on personalizing the organization-employee relationship, Adaptive WFO drives performances, reduces attrition, and improves the customer experience.”

The report found that the WFO market is transitioning from being dedicated to optimizing agent performance to offering solutions for staff optimization and enterprise analytics, with newer analytically-oriented applications continuing to gain momentum.

This report analyzed 45 WFO vendors worldwide who offer a suite of products for contact centers including recording, quality assurance/quality management, workforce management, contact center performance management, speech analytics, text analytics, desktop analytics, enterprise feedback management/surveying, eLearning, coaching, gamification and customer journey analytics.
