The deployment will provide CITIC Telecom International with a consolidated view of CITIC customers across a number of core applications. The initial deployment of the Knosys Platform will refine the important workflow and knowledge/guidance processes required to deliver market-leading customer support. This will lead to the digital transformation of sales and support strategies for CITIC customers.

The Knosys deployment will define the model for CITIC Telecom’s integrated “Customer Engagement Program” initiative, enabling improved sales and on boarding processes of products and services. A pilot program will be used to develop a business and financial case for delivering CITIC’s whole of business “Customer Self Service” strategy to manage, communicate, upsell and cross sell to new and existing customers. Upon the achievement of the Singapore program delivery goals, the company expects further roll out and deployments across the broader business.

“CITIC Telecom International always looks for ways to enhance and continually improve our customer engagement which has always been our noted strength in the market. We keep abreast of the technologies that allow us to invest and broaden our existing applications to deliver value back to our customers. We see the deployment of Knosys as a continuation of that strategy, and a way in which we can offer even further benefits to our existing and new customers.”

Chief Executive Officer of Knosys, Ashley Gall, said:

“Knosys is dedicated to driving digital transformation and improving business outcomes for our customers and we are pleased to sign an initial deployment contract with CITIC Telecom International. The deployment of the Knosys Platform will provide an extremely functional digital knowledge framework to achieve a consolidated view of CITIC customer data from multiple systems, allowing CITIC to better service and sell to new and existing customers. All this via an easy to consume subscription licencing model with agile deployment and implementation.”

In further commenting on the deal, Ashley Gall said, “We are committed to expansion in Asia and our reseller strategy is delivering early success with this win being delivered via reseller Corporate Innovations. We will continue to work with Corporate Innovations on pipeline opportunities across Asia.”
