PeopleSoft Delivers CRM Solution for
Customer Interaction Centres

Solution Enables Complete Customer Lifecycle Management

Auckland, April 10, 2001 – PeopleSoft today announced the availability of the PeopleSoft CRM Customer Interaction Centre - a comprehensive solution that manages customer interactions throughout the customer lifecycle.

The PeopleSoft CRM Customer Interaction Centre extends the effectiveness of the traditional call centre with functions to assist agents in quoting accurate prices. It can also accelerate the processing of customer orders and serves as a single point of contact for overseeing the entire customer relationship.

“Giving businesses the ability to deliver a consistent customer experience through every touch-point the customer has with them is critical, regardless of the function they are dealing with or the channel they reached the business through. The PeopleSoft CIC does just that – it’s a powerful solution and one that’s key if companies want to attract and retain their customer base,” commented Andrew Barkla, Vice President PeopleSoft Asia Pacific.

The PeopleSoft CRM Customer Interaction Centre is designed to provide users with consistent customer information across the sales, marketing, and service touch points: access via wireless devices, e-mail, web, fax and voice; a comprehensive integration platform for accessing back-office information; faster time to market with a pre-built order entry system; integrated configuration and workflow systems for improved order accuracy and processing; and a simplified user interface which results in reduced training costs and higher employee retention.

The PeopleSoft CRM Customer Interaction Centre is available immediately.
