July 13, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLORIDA July 13th, 2005 – ILD Telecommunications, Inc., a leading provider of business process outsourcing and conferencing solutions today announced that both Michael Lewis, Chairman and CEO, and Dennis Stoutenburgh, President and COO will speak at the telecommunications industry’s CompTel /ASCENT conference being held October 9th – 12th in Orlando, Florida.

Lewis and Stoutenburgh will jointly present on the topic of “Managing the Customer in a Business Process Outsourced (“BPO”) Environment”. The session is scheduled to begin at 9:45 am on Tuesday, October 11th, and will discuss the latest trends in the OSS/BSS track, specifically outsourcing and the support necessary to manage both customers and end-users in an outsourced environment.

“With back office outsourcing being a major trend in the telecommunications arena, we see many companies struggling to understand how to successfully manage their client and ultimately their end-users, while reducing corporate costs and driving efficiencies”, says Lewis.

According to Stoutenburgh, “It’s become more and more important to ensure a client’s satisfaction when entertaining an outsourced option. There are many variables to consider, in addition to cost, when selecting a provider including: ease of integration with existing billing and management reporting systems, scalability for peak and off-peak periods, data integrity and protection systems as well as training, language options and other human factors relating to front lines representatives are all vital pieces to factor in when comparing an in-house versus outsource model.”

As Chairman and Chief Executive Officer since the Company’s inception in 1996, Mike Lewis founded and oversees the corporate and board functions and is responsible for the Company’s overall vision and direction. Lewis has grown ILD to a $100 million dollar business process outsourcing and conferencing solutions leader.
