A good workforce management system is a very powerful but complex software solution, so most contact center WFM users find it valuable to get a little extra help from an expert.  Blue Shield of California sought to ensure an equitable employee culture that provided the same privileges to all employees in the organization.  Historically, contact center agents had less flexibility in altering their schedules and adjusting their start/stop times.  They also had to undergo a time consuming bid process to schedule vacation.  Aspect’s most trusted channel partner, Call Design, recognized that many of these agent frustrations could largely be eliminated by gaining a better understanding of the scheduling and agent engagement features in Aspect Workforce Management.
