www.getdesign.in - My periodic blog exploring the world of business, experience design and interaction, with a smattering of gadgetry and social media. A world where business, people and technology meet.

Let's Fix Things: For over two decades I've been consulting in Communications Design: Everything from business strategy and processes, through to technology, interaction and customer experience. The thoughts here are my own, not necessarily that of my employer.

I have a penchant for spotting patterns and fixing broken user and customer experiences. Even my Bumblebee project hasn't escaped - I've been using Six Sigma techniques to study and predict their behaviour patterns. ☺

The solution, which is the single largest speech recognition deployment in Ireland, has greatly enhanced the customer experience by eliminating layers of IVR touchtone procedures, speeding up the process of reaching the intended person or function. Developed by SpeechStorm and implemented by eircom, the hosted solution has allowed in-branch staff to focus more on value-add activities and reduced the load on contact centre staff.
