Government Agencies Can Now Procure Industry-Leading Customer Experience Solutions for Artificial Intelligence, Chat and Voice Bots, Speech Recognition and More
The United States federal government, as well as qualifying state, local and tribal agencies, can now leverage industry-leading solutions from Genesys with ease to deliver better, faster service to constituents across multiple communication channels, including phone, text, webchat and social. This is the result of the global leader in omnichannel customer experience and contact center solutions being named an awardee of the General Services Administration (GSA) IT 70 Automated Contact Center Solutions (ACCS) IM 132-20 contract vehicle.
The new special item number (SIN) 132-20 contract, referred to as the “Contact Center SIN,” gives public sector entities a list of pre-vetted, experienced vendors from which to choose. As federal, state and local agencies work to modernize their customer experience strategy to keep up with today’s standards, they now have a more efficient procurement process for artificial intelligence (AI), chat and voice bot and speech recognition solutions including those from Genesys. This is increasingly important following a mandate in the President’s Management Agenda to improve citizen interactions with government services like Federal Student Aid, Emergency and Disaster Relief, Airport Security Screening, Veterans Health Care, and more.
