挑战
The Michigan Legal Help Program was established to provide legal information for citizens who find themselves in the civil court system without a lawyer. The program offers a variety of resources, including informational content, referrals to legal services organizations, and automated online legal forms and documents. However, the complexity of these resources and the variables in people’s situations often led to questions and difficulties in navigation. The five-person staff of the Michigan Legal Help Program did not have the capacity to field inquiries from the public. The organization needed a cost-effective channel to answer legal information questions, help visitors navigate the tools available, and ensure that volunteer agents could log into the platform from anywhere.
关于客户
The Michigan Legal Help Program is a service of the Michigan Poverty Law Program. The organization’s five employees and many volunteers support citizens on the organization’s website and at seven self-help centers around the state. The program provides self-help information and automated generation of legal documents for citizens who are navigating the state’s civil court system without an attorney. The Michigan Legal Help website was launched in August 2012 and offers a variety of resources, including informational content, referrals to legal services organizations, and automated online legal forms and documents. The most technologically complex resources on the website are automated online legal forms and documents, which can be completed with an interview process using HotDocs technology.
解决方案
The Michigan Legal Help Program deployed a LivePerson live chat solution and trained volunteer law students to staff the channel. The LiveEngage platform was chosen for its ease of deployment and the ability for volunteers to log in remotely. The volunteers received training on the platform, the Michigan Legal Help website, the online tool for building legal documents, and how to help clients without giving legal advice. The live chat lines are staffed from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on weekdays, and visitors are able to leave a message for an agent at other times of the day. The LivePerson Customer Success manager assigned to Michigan Legal Help has provided periodic checkups, scorecards, and advice on how to make the most of the solution.

Flex Contact Center: Supporting rapid business growth with IBM Connections Cloud and IBM Verse
Flex Contact Center, a professional services company offering telesales, call-center, anti-attrition, back-office, helpdesk and collection services, has grown rapidly since its establishment in 2009. With operations in 12 sites across two states and four cities in Brazil, the company employs more than 11,000 people. However, the company realized that to prevent barriers to future expansion, it was essential to make it as easy as possible for its people to work together effectively—even if they were based in separate geographical locations. Traditional approaches to collaboration—based on email and phone calls—threatened to reduce productivity. Flex Contact Center wanted to enable better collaboration and communication across its workforce, but did not want to make large investments in infrastructure.

PureFluent: Connecting to partners and customers through the cloud for enhanced productivity
PureFluent, a translation services company, was facing challenges in managing its translation and document review processes. The company often received files in uneditable formats from customers, which required staff members to transfer text to word processing or spreadsheet documents. During the translation process, maintaining version control was a challenge because PureFluent sent work to hundreds of translators in multiple geographic locations. It was also time-consuming for staff to manage the large volume of emails and FTP transactions required to submit translations for customer review and ensure the integration of requested changes. Furthermore, staff were spending significant time hunting through their emails for specific attachments.
