The document discusses challenges facing the call center industry, including lack of capital and high costs. It proposes two paradigm shifts: (1) moving from purchasing IT equipment with cash to paying monthly via a "pay for use" model, and (2) classifying users as "power" or "non-power" to right-size equipment needs. This could save over 35% of costs compared to traditional purchasing by providing high-end equipment to 20% of users and refurbished machines to 80% as shown in a Discovery Health case study saving over R10 million. Contact information is provided for Innovent, which offers the proposed rental solutions.

Replatforming Series: Know Your Payment OptionsBlytheco
Join us for the final event in the series "Are You Ready for Replatforming?" to learn about the pros and cons of using various popular payment options to fund your business software investment. Our special guest is Mark Grimes from Blytheco partner Dimension Funding!
The goal of this lesson is to provide an overview of the most common methods for financing a new business or organization: debt and equity. The lesson begins with an overview of why businesses need external financing and what types of resources are most often needed for a new business. The pros and cons of debt and equity are then introduced, as are the most common features of each.

Studies show that top performing companies are using “touchless” (or straight-through) processing to process invoices in 1-3 days, compared to more than 15 days for the average company. This enables them to maximize discount capture and “best pricing” through spend analysis and contract management.
Every invoice that is processed in a touchless manner saves a tremendous amount of time, resources and money. Many top performing companies have implemented touchless processing and they continue to reap the benefits and improve year after year.
This 45-minute session with industry expert David Hay will discuss:
-How touchless processing can be achieved
-Process change and automation
-Collaborating with procurement to achieve touchless transactions
-Usage of cloud and mobile technologies

As most of us believe AFRICA IS CALLING indeed – it’s bunker down time for our contact centre operations to get better getting right what we do so that it’s portable and transportable across the continent. And that absolutely starts with getting our people ‘right’ first
2020 will be remembered as a somber year when the world changed, right in front of our eyes – week to week, month to month and lockdowns to unlocking. The BPO industry’s response was rapid and the collaboration of various public, private and governmental players was nothing short of noteworthy. It is also the year when South Africa ranked 2nd most favoured offshore destinations of the year. As we come back slowly to the new normal, we need a winning strategy to take us to the next level of service delivery for clients across the world. This will have to be a strategy of taking the South Africa customer experience ‘to the world’ while the world cannot visit (fully) due to the pandemic. This is OUR time.

According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

10. Paradigm Shift 2
“Classify your users between Power and Non-Power
Users”
• What percentage of staff are average/medium
and high end users?
• Do all your users need the state of the art
equipment?
• What do the users actually use the machines for
on a daily basis?
• Do they all need to use the full application suites?
• Forgetting your buying and replacement policy,
which users need a regular refresh every 3 years?
• What informs our buying decision?
11. Case Study
• Discovery Health have 7000+ users and only give
20% of their users Innovent rented equipment,
the other 80% use our Qrent offering of
refurbished machines.
• Discovery have saved in excess of R10million on
desktop spend in their first replacement cycle,
which continues to grow as they expand.
• R51billion worth and they still look at ways of
saving.
• Extract from Discovery Case Study:
12. Paradigm Shift 2

• 1000 users @ R7,500 per PC = R7,5million
• Profile your users, including applications
20% Power Users @ R7,500 = R1,5million

Welcome and Introduction of selfI come from a traditional hardware supplier and know that customers wasted a lot of money that could have been put to better use. Now I’m in a position that I am saving those very same customers a lot of money.So in saying that I am going to present two cost saving scenario’s to you and show you how to make a shift to achieving more from spending less.
Limits business growth due to capital being invested in non-income generating assets;Our profit margins are reducing quickly due to more competitors opening;Customers want to sign shorter contracts;Equipment sitting idle while contracts are trying to be won;On balance sheet equipment is expensive so cost per seat is higher;Most contracts are paid monthly why shouldn’t your expenses be monthly;
Call Centres are highly competitive environments so do something different;Staff comes and goes as do contracts;Mix and match your technology to suit the campaign.
The suppliers are just providing equipment/kit and not offering a custom solution to suit your needs;Why change what has always been done, not considered other options;You prefer to buy outright so you can hand the equipment down to users or give staff the option to buy;You company is cash positive;You want to do your bit for the community, there are laws around supplying equipment in working order so be careful;You sweat your kit for as long as possible;Ask audience for any other reasons they buy;
Tying up capital that could be used in growing the business and marketing;Most contracts are done on a monthly annuity payment stream but spend isn’t;Empty desks cost money;Have to think twice before considering, smaller or shorter contracts;These costs are usually not considered but can be considerable as they add up, hard drives, memory, motherboards etc.;
These costs are usually not considered but can be considerable as they add up, hard drives, memory, motherboards etc.;Companies tend to put redundant equipment into a storeroom which takes up space and isn’t eWaste efficient;Focus on what you know best, we can’t all be masters at everything;Get your annuity revenue to match your monthly expenses to win contracts.
Cow and milk analogy
Would you buy a R3million Ferrari for a 85 year old granny?Would you give a fully loaded M16 to a 5 year old child ?You could but it would be very costly !!!!When these questions are answered honestly, it will become apparent that an organisation’s users can broadly be broken into two categories:- power users and non-power users. The split is generally more than 50% of the organisation’s users are non-power users ie they do not require latest and greatest desktops to perform their work effectively. It is this user that has cost companies millions in expenditure as they get high capacity which the organisation pays for, but hardly utilized and no return on investment is realized on it.Qrent has got a practical, cost effective solution that can save significant amounts by assisting large organisations apply the right technology to the right user/environment.
Take a scenario of 1000 users and start profiling the users, it may seem like a long winded process but it’s worth the time and effort;1000 users at R7000 will cost you R7million to replace;Most companies have identified that 20% are power users and 80% non-power users so we will use this calculation for the purpose of this presentation;Average price for power users is around R7000 per user and R4000 for our Qrent model which is a total cost of R4,6million a saving of R2,4million in a replacement cycle – 35% to your bottom line;
Innovent :We don’t dictate who you buy from or what you buy;You negotiate as normal with your existing suppliers;Rentals are off balance sheet so your bottom line is healthier;Stronger Cash Flow to grow your business and keep the shareholders happy;We take the hassle out of disposing of your equipment the right way
Qrent :We don’t touch your credit line with the banks because we use our own funding;One MRA signed and equipment added and removed as required;Add and remove equipment as you needed;We take away the pains of warranty, insurance and will supply a spare unit per 20 machines on site for quicker turn around time, ensuring your users are always up and running;We have 1000’s of tier one machines so you can standardise on your environment;
