Contact Tracing has been widely recognized as a key factor to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on communities, and enable organizations, businesses and people to open up and return safely to work, to school and to recreation. Among approximately 80 percent of public and private organizations planning to reopen with a safe return, 25 percent are implementing some sort of Contact Tracing program or plan. Contact Tracing from Avaya, leveraging its innovative contact center and collaboration solutions, helps organizations effectively collect, manage and leverage massive amounts of data, alleviating the huge burden of tracing and notifying thousands of potentially COVID-19 exposed individuals. Through the use of automation and multi-channel engagement, Avaya’s advanced technologies combine to provide a robust and scalable solution that can be deployed within days – either as an over-the-top application or with the Avaya software you may already have in place.
