Problem Context

Trimac, a provider of bulk trucking transportation, logistics, distribution, and management services had an IVR solution
that was used by gas stations across Canada to review and update fuel inventory readings. The inventory details received from the gas stations were then stored locally on the IVR device and transmitted to Trimac’s TMS applications for dispatchers to plan their day. However, Trimac wanted to modernize their IVR solution by re-architecting the solution on Amazon Connect to offer a secure and create additional channels to enhance the experience for their customers. They aimed to solidify their reputation as a trusted industry leader with cloud based technologies to improve customer experiences and enhance the security, scalability, and efficiency of our environment.

Challenges

  • The existing solution was on-premise and had the limited capability in terms of expandability, connectivity, and monitoring. It existed on an older legacy platform on hardware that was outdated and OS unsupported, posing a security risk.
  • The tight integration of the IVR solution with the existing TMS Fuel system required building out an API interface to help move towards microservices and decoupling mechanisms put in place.
