VOLT Delta is set to supply its switching and contact centre system to BT, to support a wide range of BT’s operator services including BT’s directory assistance services, including 118500 as well as its national 999 emergency call handling service.

Additionally Volt Delta will support other operator assistance services such as its alarm and reminder services and a wide range of wholesale services.

Volt Delta’s OASIS solution for BT includes complete switching and ACD capability, integrated voice IVR, call recording, sophisticated real time management information and comprehensive historic reporting.

Volt Delta will commence implementation of this major system replacement during 2010 with live service scheduled for 2011. With the supply of its system Volt Delta will also be providing full 24x7 support services to ensure that the system continues to meet BT’s demanding ongoing service requirements.

As one would expect, BT has set extremely demanding standards and requirements for this solution and we are very pleased that we hav been able to satisfy these, both in our product capabilities, and also from an organisational viewpoint. We are now working closely with the BT team to ensure a successful and seamless transition to the new OASIS system”.

This is a major investment for BT, which recognises our long term commitment to providing 999, Directory Enquiry and Operator Services.
