BNSF Railways Earns Prestigious Center of Excellence Recognition from BenchmarkPortal

May 28, 2009 - PRLog -- For more than 150 years, BNSF Railway has been quietly delivering cars, coal, clothing, games, and nearly anything else found in homes and businesses. When the predecessors to BNSF Railway first started operations, we were building a nation by shrinking America's borders. Today, our focus is on using speed, agility, and resourcefulness to help expand the global marketplace for goods and services. The Center of Excellence recognition is one of the most prestigious awards in the Service and Support industry

Call Centers achieve the Center of Excellence distinction based on a best-practice metrics drawn from the world’s largest database of objective and quantitative data that is audited and validated by researchers from the BenchmarkPortal in conjunction with the Center for Customer-Driven Quality at Purdue University.

Since companies spend vast amounts of money implementing and operating call centers to ensure a competitive edge in customer service, it is vital that the call handling process be conducted at best practice standards. This need to function at best practice levels has, in turn, created the need for third-party certification that shows when call centers are operating at this high level of call handling performance.
