"When we constructed our state of the art Call Center in Dallas in 2009, we anticipated future growth and we are seeing growth in facilities served and in call volumes. We are adding roughly 25% more Call Center Associates (also known as employees) to provide for our growth and to also further improve service to some customer segments," said Danny de Hoyos, Vice President of Service and Technical Operations. "We want to stay ahead of growth in our client base of prisons and jails and the inmate friends and family members that use our Call Center. We respond to 42 million contacts each year from friends and family members with inmate relationships, and want to provide best in class wait times, first call resolution, and call completion rates for the millions of customers that we serve - so in addition to state of the art technology used to support our customers we are also making a substantial investment in additional people - our people that we train to do the best job possible," said de Hoyos.
