Background

A national consumer‐complaint agency funded by a European country’s government (unnamed for security reasons) processes more than 1.5 million complaint cases a year via the Internet and phone. The agency counsels consumers via the phone and internet in an effort to help citizens resolve disagreements with suppliers of goods or services.

 

Challenges

  • Encryption of complaint data
  • Implementation and administration
  • Integrating telephone and website complaints/manual processes
  • Stringent security audit requirements
  • Overtaxed IT department

Consumers post high volumes of complaints through forms on the agency’s website or relay their dissatisfactions via the phone. Inbound feeds come from sixteen different locations. These cases contain confidential and personally identifiable information. Many of the case details must be sent to local and federal authorities as well as trading partners. All of this must be accomplished within a secure, protected environment. Interacting with these disparate computing environments makes exchanging information difficult. All these requirements overtax already pushed‐to‐the‐limit IT infrastructures. Adding to the situation’s complexity, information must to be turned around in a timely fashion in order to ensure a high customer satisfaction rating.

 

The Solution

DataMotion's Platform

The consumer‐complaint agency decided to take advantage of the DataMotion unified platform which conforms to Microsoft’s .NET and Web services API standards. The agency implemented several key applications on the unified platform: including DataMotion secure email automation, secure managed file transfer and secure forms.

“We were attracted by the apparent power and simplicity of the DataMotion solution,” – IT consultant representing the agency.
