Customer service at scale for a growing member base

As a small organization with large operational demands, SAMBA needed technology that could support high call volumes without adding complexity. The telephone remains the main way members interact with the organization, so SAMBA needed a platform that could help its small team keep service personal, compliant, and reliable as call volumes and service expectations increased.

Balancing efficiency, empathy, and strict service requirements

With 700–1,000 calls a day and time-sensitive SLAs, SAMBA needed to guide callers quickly to the right queue, support self-service where appropriate, and record interactions for compliance. It also wanted a more complete view of customer conversations so supervisors could identify training needs and coach agents more effectively.

Using AI to evaluate more calls and improve coaching

Enghouse Interactive AI Quality Management helped SAMBA move from manually assessing only 1–2 calls per month to evaluating around 60,000 calls per year. With the option to extend AI-supported evaluation across every customer interaction, SAMBA can continue to scale quality management as its needs evolve. By using AI analytics, transcript search, and sentiment insight, the team can identify coaching opportunities faster and give managers a clearer view of service quality.

Building a long-term platform for reliable, flexible service

SAMBA has worked with Enghouse Interactive for more than a decade, evolving its contact center environment through cloud migration, IVR self-service, and AI-powered quality management. Moving to the cloud also reduced the need for on-site maintenance and day-to-day IT management, helping SAMBA save time while maintaining reliable service. The result is a scalable platform that supports business continuity, reduces management time, and gives SAMBA room to add new capabilities as member needs change.

Now we have introduced AI Quality Management I can’t imagine going back. If a company cares about customer service, then they should care about their employees being trained right. AI makes evaluation quick and easy: it cuts through the static and identifies opportunities for training and improvement.
