Webhelp, the leading global customer experience and business solutions provider, and its global client Signify, the world leader in lighting for professionals and consumers, brought home an award together at this year’s Customer Experience (CX) Excellence Awards.

The ceremony, presented virtually on Wednesday the 26th of May, as part of the NICE Interactions 2021 event, awarded Signify and Webhelp teams for the Best CX Innovation category.

The award recognized the companies for the flawless roll-out of NICE in Contact’s CXone, a cloud-based solution, enabling Signify to deliver an omnichannel experience from three consolidated multilingual hubs across Europe, the Asia Pacific, and North America. With the help of 200+ brand ambassadors who cover 40 languages, Webhelp provides multichannel customer support to Signify’s consumers and professional customers.

The technology solution also enabled ambassadors to have more precise insights into Signify’s customers’ needs while gaining back time to focus on engaging in higher quality interactions.

When Signify and Webhelp renewed their global partnership in 2019, Webhelp initiated this project to drive digital transformation and pursue world-class operational excellence on a global scale. The project featured in the submission focused on the Nordic region, which served as a front-runner for the implementation. The roll-out is currently underway across the other regions.

Luite van Zelst, Global Vendor Manager, Signify, stated,

We are proud to accept the Best CX Innovation award together with Webhelp, which reflects the immense effort and teamwork to deliver one seamless experience for our customers. With Webhelp’s support on this front, we’ve managed to build out a centralized process together, enabling us to address the core needs of our customers. Given customer-centricity is a key focus, we will continue to expand the solution with an iterative approach to ensure our customers are serviced at a high standard.

Andrea Kaminski, Global Industry Lead, High Tech and Media, Webhelp, said,

We are thrilled to receive recognition for our work with Signify. Over the past years, our teams have worked incredibly hard to support Signify’s rapidly growing global customer base. With technology enablement as a core strategic pillar of our work with clients, we’re happy to work with an organization like Signify, which is open to adapting to new technology in the ever-changing CX landscape. This award is certainly a special moment as we continue on our transformation journey together.”
