Engagement models

Start where the operation is hurting.

Work can begin with a focused AI pilot, an existing Amazon Connect instance, or a contact center migration. Scope is based on the operational need, platform maturity, dependencies, and agreed service measures.

Launch a new Amazon Connect contact center

For teams replacing legacy telephony, starting a digital service operation, or consolidating selected channels on Amazon Connect.

Modernize an existing Amazon Connect instance

For teams that already run Amazon Connect and want to revise routing, reporting, data integration, or the controls around generative AI assistance.

Build an AI customer service pilot

For a bounded queue, customer segment, or intent where self-service, agent assist, or proactive outbound can be tested against agreed measures.

Rollout Plan

1

What success should look like

Establish the current baseline before rollout, then compare the pilot or release against measures relevant to the selected journeys.
