Cognizant will integrate cloud voice into a single omnichannel platform to enhance and personalize the agent and customer experience.
TEANECK, N.J., March 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Cognizant (Nasdaq: CTSH) today announced that it has been selected by Volkswagen Group Ireland (VWG Ireland), the Wolfsburg, Germany-based multinational automaker, to transform VWG Ireland's digital customer service landscape. Cognizant will redesign VWG Ireland's existing siled contact center platform into an omnichannel customer experience (CX) platform, based on Salesforce cloud voice service and Amazon Connect.
VWG Ireland needed to unify its legacy contact center functionalities and streamline its customer service to reduce maintenance costs and improve efficiency, while gaining a holistic 360-degree view of the customer. Due to its siled customer support channels and processes, VWG Ireland also faced a lack of customer insight and laborious manual aggregation of customer data. As part of the agreement, Cognizant will deploy a cloud-based, fully digital omnichannel CX platform to modernize customer relationships, as well as provide an agent-friendly, web-based, unified user interface that blends data of customers, context, journeys and channels of interaction.
Cognizant will also provide VWG Ireland with advanced insights into customer experiences and conversations. This is intended to improve reporting, advance business decision making, and drive next best actions to deliver a personalized customer experience and recommend next steps, services, or products. Additionally, Cognizant will collaborate with VWG Ireland on continuous improvement, feature enhancement and process innovation of the CX platform. The introduction of the CX platform enables efficiencies for both end-users and their supervisors to be improved, freeing up time to deliver an optimized level of service to VWG Ireland customers.
"The automotive industry has been transformed from top to bottom in the last decade, especially with the acceleration of the use of electric vehicles.

This program is the first of its kind for Cognizant and Volkswagen, combining powerful CX capabilities of CRM, digital and voice in the cloud Therefore, we are honored to have been selected by Volkswagen Group Ireland to support it in its transformation of the customer journey to meet the expectations of its customers," said Rohit Gupta, Managing Director, UK
