Use Case Studies to Define Your Business Requirements

Cisco Systems has defined real-world business requirements in two case studies that utilize the contact center system. The business requirements for each case study were created in a test environment in order to validate the contact center solution for these business models.

The first case study is a financial firm with distributed call centers. The second case study is a large distribution and retail company. Both case studies define business requirements, agent profiles, and call flows that are typically used by these business models.

Call Flow Models

The call flows that are deployed by the sample businesses are as follows:

Test Bed 1—Unified IP IVR (Unified CallManager Post-Routed calls) for the financial business model that is representative of the banking industry call center operations.

Test Bed 2—Unified CVP (CVP Post-Routed calls) for the retail business model that is representative of the retailing industry call center operations.

The case study methodology is continued for each PPDIOO process by using the deployment models and sites that were developed for testing.
