Roseville, California Expands IVR Usage with Selectron Technologies' VoiceUtility™ Interactive Voice Response (IVR) System

PORTLAND, OREGON — January 14, 2008 — The City of Roseville, California's Utility Department has found a better way to send final overdue notifications with its choice of Selectron's VoiceUtility interactive voice response (IVR) system. During peak season and given staff constraints it was not previously possible to contact an adequate number of the  nearly 500 customers with overdue accounts that were reaching final notice status each day. Together with the VoiceUtility system Selectron's Outbound Delivery Services module offered the Utility Department an automated method for sending context-based messages that provide individual account holders their specific payment requirements and the capability to immediately resolve them.

"We've enjoyed a great relationship with the City of Roseville's Building and Permitting department, so we are pleased to be working with their Utility Department as well," says Lewis Gouge, Selectron Account Executive. "Their challenge of handling growth and seasonal fluctuations with payment issues is something that our VoiceUtility system can quickly address. Their added Outbound Delivery Services module will reduce the occurrence of the costly task of stopping and starting service by rapidly contacting those in risk of a shutoff and allowing them to pay by credit card."
