The COPC-2000® CSP Standard Version 4.1 focuses on consistent results at a programme and their correlation with the satisfaction levels of various stakeholders who include end-users, clients or employees). It concurrently measures all customer-touch activities, providing a framework to identify and measure specific attributes required for sustained operational performance improvement. Experience has demonstrated that organizations that successfully implement the COPC ® Performance Management System can dramatically lower costs while maintaining or improving service quality as well as client and end-user satisfaction. The Certification Process is a holistic approach to high performance operations which requires management to run business by balancing service, quality and cost; setting high performance benchmark targets; monitoring results using objective data; continually improving in areas not meeting targets; consistently meeting client and internal performance requirements.

Given the focus on consistently high performance standards expected over a long period of time, the COPC-2000® CSP Standard Version 4.1 requires extensive preparation and assessment and is much sought after by the BPO industry.  Infosys BPO partnered with QAI for this implementation journey.
