CCA was founded in May 2008 to provide outsourced contact center solutions to mid-market firms. Its goal is to provide an alternative to offshore contact center outsourcing by delivering an affordable on-shore solution. CCA uses a combination of SaaS-based technology solutions and an innovative workforce staffing model that employs veterans as well as students enrolled in local colleges. CCA matches students with customers that are in markets that mirror their field of study; for example, nursing, EMT, and pharmaceutical majors deliver contact center services to CCA customers in the health field. By working with CCA, students learn marketable and transferrable skills while earning money to further their education.

CCA chose Vertical Solutions and its technology because of its expertise in developing contact center management solutions as well as for its new technology platform that enables the rapid development of custom applications that can be modified by business professionals without the intervention of technical programmers.

“Vertical Solutions is a leader in developing solutions for both field service and onsite support that are easy to integrate and customize, and that approach workflow management from the business perspective, not just from the IT perspective. Its new technology is a perfect match for our strategy to use all on-demand technology solutions,” says Joe Jacoboni, CEO of Contact Centers of America. “In addition, VSI is an ideal partner for us because it shares our values of giving back to the community by hiring and training students and veterans.”

CCA anticipates deploying 100 licenses of VSIÂ’s service management solution within the next 90 days, and expects that number to jump to more than 1,000 licenses during the next 12 months. In addition, it will resell the VSI solution to its customers that co-source with CCA, as well as to companies that manage their customer support with internal teams. Both Joe Jacoboni and VSI CEO Ron Wegmann agree that the growth opportunity of this partnership will provide a huge opportunity within the marketplace and will effectively change how contact center arenas operate on a daily basis as well as how they will progress in the future.

“CCA executives were among the founders of the contact center outsourcing industry, and while offshore solutions have dominated the market in recent years, many companies realize they need more than just low prices,” says Ron Wegmann, CEO, Vertical Solutions, Inc.. “CCA is bringing customer loyalty and satisfaction back into the equation with its innovative approach and solution.”
