  • (1888PressRelease) July 27, 2021 - The widely acclaimed magazine recognizes Customer Experience (CX) efforts in the region in a wide range of activities of organizations from various industries. Every category is assessed and thoroughly researched by the content team and the Editor for each category to ensure that all accolades are declared in a professional and impartial manner.

    Mr. Feras Ahmed, Chief Executive Officer of Silah Gulf commented, “This award comes as an acknowledgement of the successful shift in focus that we have made during the last year. More than anything during these unprecedented times, we have geared ourselves to provide a standard of service that is focused on care and concern to our customers, employees and the communities we serve, who are at the heart of everything we do. Our efforts reflect the vision of the government of the Kingdom of Bahrain in putting individuals and communities before everything else.”

    CX in Times of Crisis Award
    This award was a recognition for Silah’s flexibility and innovation to keep delivering for customers in difficult times, achieving great results under pressure. The Kingdom of Bahrain’s efforts and overall defense strategy in tackling the COVID-19 have been commended by the WHO and recognized globally as being one of the fiercest in controlling the spread of the pandemic. With the highest number of PCR tests conducted per capita globally during the start of the pandemic, the 3 step Test, Trace and Isolate strategy has been at the core of the country’s fight. The 444 national hotline played an important role in each of the 3 stages of this strategy.

    The BPO experience of Silah Gulf helped in setting up the 444 Hotline under extremely challenging circumstances and operating it thereafter. With a team of more than 300 resources, a mix of trained multi-lingual call centre agents and medical doctors, each allocated specific tasks in line with approved health protocol, the hotline was positioned as the single number to call for all Covid19 emergencies. Innovation was key to the 444 project from the start; working against time and unprecedented challenges to ensure the sustainability and agility of the operation.

    Digital Transformation Award
    Towards the end of the last decade, the National Bank of Bahrain (NBB), one of Bahrain’s oldest financial institutions decided on a number of strategic changes to become more operationally efficient and focused on customer experience for a younger, digitally savvy target customer base. To achieve this, NBB turned to Silah Gulf for their experience as a BPO focused on Customer Experience Process Management to support them in the transformation. Silah embarked on a number of changes including creatively merging digital channels into one platform bringing NBB far ahead of the competition in the market.
