New York’s E-ZPass Customer Service Center Recognized for World-Class Customer Service

DALLAS, TX:  October 16, 2007 — Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., (NYSE:  ACS), a premier provider of business process and information technology outsourcing solutions, announced today that its New York E-ZPass Customer Service Center received for the second time a “Certified Center of Excellence” designation from BenchmarkPortal and the Center for Customer-Driven Quality at Purdue University.  ACS operates the call center for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority-Bridges and Tunnels, the New York State Thruway Authority and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. To earn the Center of Excellence designation, a call center must meet objective, quantitative criteria and pass audits by BenchmarkPortal researchers.  Key drivers of successful call center performance in customer service include operational efficiency, service level standards, process management, customer satisfaction, leadership resources, and employee training. This distinction places the E-ZPass Customer Service Center in Staten Island, New York, among the top ten percent of call centers evaluated.  The certification required a rigorous review by BenchmarkPortal, repository of the world’s largest database of call center performance metrics. “The certification audits performed by Purdue University show that the New York E-ZPass call center lives up to ACS’ reputation as reliable and responsive,” said Michael Huerta, ACS Managing Director of Transportation Solutions. “This is a testament to the integrity, talent and innovation of the employees and managers of the center. We are honored by this distinction.” Dr. Jon Anton, Founder of Purdue University's Center for Customer-Driven Quality stated, “We have audited thousands of call centers, but have found that less than 10% operate at an efficiency and effectiveness level to be certified as a “Center of Excellence.”  The ACS managers have successfully focused their organization of people, processes, and technology to achieve the superior performance levels that we require.” ACS is the nation’s leader in electronic toll collection, handling more than 50 percent of the nation’s electronic toll transactions, processing over $2.4 billion in toll revenue and supporting more than ten million customers annually.
