The United States-based energy company, Northeast Utilities Service Co. has started a four-year project to consolidate three customer information systems into one and six call centers into two facilities. The company made investments to develop a common set of customer service processes to support its four operating companies' customers. The company is in the process of consolidating its six call centers into one facility in Windsor, Connecticut and another at an undetermined location while putting a new .Net front end on an IBM mainframe-based CIS that has been in place since 1999. The goal of the project is to provide a more efficient customer service group while moving into single integrated customer information systems.
