A Canadian BPO Provider Migrates from Mitel to Amazon Connect for Inbound, Outbound and PCI-Compliant Payments

The Challenge

The provider's Mitel contact centre limited how quickly it could launch and manage outbound campaigns for clients. Client programs depend on high availability, and agents take card payments over the phone.

Slow campaign launches

Outbound campaigns were hard to launch and manage on Mitel.

Rigid reporting

Reports were hard to customize per client program.

Compliance and uptime

PCI-DSS payments, 99.9% availability and a one-hour recovery target.

Our Approach

A spring 2024 validation phase, then production in June 2024 with numbers ported in two waves.

Validate

  • Migrated contact centre tested
  • Outbound campaign solution
  • QuickSight client reporting

Port

  • Internal numbers first
  • Campaign numbers at cutover
  • Mitel kept for rollback

Launch

  • Three Amazon Connect instances
  • PCI-compliant payments
  • Production, June 2024

Support

  • Readiness workshops
  • Training plan
  • Ongoing support

The Solution

Serve7 moved the provider to three Amazon Connect instances with a custom outbound solution, client reporting and secure payments.

  1. 1 Outbound campaigns A custom campaign management solution for client programs.
  2. 2 Client-specific reporting Reporting built on Amazon QuickSight for each client program.
  3. 3 One-hour recovery Contact flow rollback, Kinesis record replication and S3 cross-region replication of recordings.
  4. 4 PCI-compliant payments Agents never hear or see card data.

Results

The provider now runs inbound and outbound programs on Amazon Connect with client-specific reporting and PCI-compliant payment handling.

3 Amazon Connect instances in production
99.9% Contact centre uptime target
1 hour RPO and RTO
PCI-DSS Payment handling

Every number was ported with the old platform kept ready as a rollback, so client programs kept running through cutover.
