Network Rail | Fast Track to a Digital RAMS Approval System
Network Rail needed a seamless, digital RAMS approval system to make it quicker and easier to manage and provide visibility and updates to all parties.
NCP can now react and resource for changes immediately – improving call handling and customer experience.
What’s the correlation between an airline and a car park services provider? Well, when airline Monarch collapsed, 110,000 people were left stranded abroad and many had cars parked at UK airports. The Monarch crisis sparked a huge workload spike for the NCP contact centre.
Enhancing customer experience (CX) has always been high on the agenda for the multi-award winning car park operator. And they didn’t let the impact of this unexpected event throw their contact centre into chaos.
This was the first major incident that NCP faced since they had deployed Liberty Converse, our omnichannel contact centre solution.
“From a customer services perspective, the airline crisis was tough. But having full visibility of customer contact put us in a strong position. We were able to assess demand vs. available resource and respond to deliver the best service possible.”

With Liberty Converse, managers can manage their teams and allocate resources very effectively. They can standardise practises and analyse performance, on an individual and team level.
It’s massively increased NCP’s ability to resolve each customer’s issue quickly, efficiently and to everyone’s satisfaction. And it’s a game-changer in crisis situations.
When a customer makes contact, Converse’s deep integration with NCP’s legacy software, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, includes a screen pop up and automatic case creation. No matter how the customer makes contact – by phone, email, web chat, from a ticket machine or over a barrier intercom.
Prior to Converse, NCP had struggled with a three week backlog of emails. The increased visibility means they can assign more resources to reduce the backlog. Integrated email handling in Converse is now a staggering six times faster as emails can be identified and routed by their subject.
Converse’s smooth integration with legacy software makes it simple to work with. NCP now measure success by solving problems, rather than ‘firefighting’. The watertight integration between Converse and the CRM provides accurate reporting, and this data highlights areas for improvement.
Converse helps NCP to see what people are doing, as well as how and why. Where their attention had been on how quickly issues were dealt with, the data that Converse delivered showed that it is more efficient to resolve an issue to the customer’s satisfaction the first time, even if it takes a little longer.
“Delivering great customer experience has always been important to NCP. As the frontline of our brand, our contact centre plays a vital role within this. The ability to understand our data in real-time and ask ‘why’ ensures we are well-equipped to deliver positive outcomes, even in unexpected circumstances.”

ATS Euromaster, the tyres and vehicle maintenance provider, employs more than 1200 staff, across 260 centres and including mobile technicians. Their IT infrastructure was reliant on multiple legacy systems, with limited interaction between systems. It was reliant on manual processing.
The UK’s most recommended bed retailer, Dreams, set out on a journey to replace its customer engagement platform with a single integrated solution, aiming to deliver a seamless experience across all service channels and elevate customer experience even further.
