Mumbai: Telecom services provider BT and Microsoft have signed a Two-year contract under which BT will manage Microsoft's global OneCall call centre routing initiative. BT will design, build, deploy and manage a solution to unify and manage Microsoft's contact centres throughout the world into a single network-based contact centre environment.

The contract stipulates an 18-month deployment schedule across 77 Microsoft call centres around the world, with potential to expand to over a hundred centres. The OneCall solution will enable Microsoft's call centres world-wide to be centrally managed for call routing, for better customer service and better use of call centre agents. The call centres support customer service and support, sales and marketing.

Micropsoft's choice of BT was based on the telecom providers experience of contact centre technologies and ability to manage a project with global scope.
