About DialAmerica Government Solutions
Across the USA, citizens increasingly need help accessing information
about government programs and benefits. Often, the questions they have
are complicated and urgent. The call center they reach, in many cases,
is their only direct interaction with the government. That’s why it is
critical for the representative to be knowledgeable and sensitive so
that this interaction is a positive, productive citizen experience.
DialAmerica, a U.S.-only corporation with 50 years of experience, is
committed to providing the quality service citizens need and expect.
Headquartered in Mahwah, New Jersey, DialAmerica operates exclusively
from 23 facilities located throughout the USA, including key cities such
as San Diego, Columbus, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Knoxville. The company
and its founders are credited with pioneering the development of the
teleservices industry and introducing many of its innovations.
Training
DialAmerica understands the needs of citizens and extensively trains its
representatives to be sensitive, confident, responsible, quick-thinking
and articulate. They deliver helpful, accurate information in a
thoughtful, conversational but controlled manner. DialAmerica calls this
approach ‘conscious conversation,’ and it’s proven to be highly
effective in answering the questions and solving the problems of
citizens.
At DialAmerica, training is an ongoing process. We conduct thorough
initial training and update instruction sessions to ensure our representatives
are successful with every interaction. Each call center has a mentor
program, in which an experienced representative coaches a trainee,
helping him or her to develop skills and advance within the company. We
also offer a comprehensive training certification program covering all
aspects of teleservices for representatives who want to move up the
ladder.
Security
As a company that handles an average of 200 million calls a year,
maintaining the highest standards of data security is a top priority.
Our Maximum Uninterrupted Secure Technology (MUSTechnology) creates a
technological fortress around all of our data to prevent security
breaches.
All systems containing data are in secure areas accessible only to
authorized staff members. These areas are locked and secured 24/7, 365
days a year. We run stringent background and reference checks on all
employees before hiring. To prevent representatives from recording
prospect or customer information, we operate in a completely paperless environment
with no electronic equipment (cell phones, pagers, calculators) or
writing instruments of any kind permitted at workstations.
Compliance
In today's tough regulatory environment, compliance is more important
than ever. DialAmerica is 100 percent dedicated to following all local,
state and federal laws and regulations.
Our compliance department thoroughly understands and tracks regulatory
issues and immediately informs all divisions of any new requirements or
changes. We retain legal counsel to help ensure ongoing compliance, and
we also conduct frequent audits of call centers, along with compliance
knowledge "pop quizzes" of our representatives to keep them on their
toes. DialAmerica’s compliance program is so effective that we have
never been cited for a telemarketing violation by any regulatory body.
Technology
DialAmerica’s interactive intelligence platform is a cross-functional
system that incorporates today's most popular communication modes,
including phone, email, chat, fax and text. Operating on a fully digital
basis, our technology supports client information processing
requirements across servers, midrange and PC computing environments so
that our clients can easily access data whenever they need it. We
combine both proprietary and non-proprietary technology to create
systems large enough to support high-capacity needs, yet flexible enough
to develop customized solutions.
Experience
DialAmerica has successfully executed high-value, customized
teleservices programs across multiple industry sectors including
government, education, healthcare, non-profit, energy, publishing and
financial services.
Through our ThinSourcing business model we approach each client like a
partner, not a vendor. We become an extension of their organization,
deeply understanding their goals, subject matter and operating
principles. When working with complex industries like financial
services, healthcare and pharmaceutical, our representative’s knowledge,
skill and sensitivity help guide citizens through life's many needs and
changes. We are proud that our first call resolution is among the
highest in the industry and that our client relationships, often 20
years or longer, are among the most enduring.
