A-GAME is an innovative gamification platform that leverages structured, league-based competition to inspire, motivate and recognize outstanding performance at the individual and team levels. A-GAME automatically facilitates round-robin tournament and play-off stages for sport or non-sport themed competition. Gridiron is the American style football version of A-GAME that enables organizations to leverage the popularity and excitement associated with the NCAA and NFL seasons to engage and entertain employees, enhance corporate culture and improve business performance.
In its inaugural 2015 season, drawing over 3,000 agents across 150 teams in the U.S. and Central America and supporting customers among some of the world’s leading brands including Sprint, Duke Energy, Chase, Shutterfly, Pepco, Vectren and Bluegreen Vacations, A-GAME Gridiron resulted in improvements in attendance, quality, retention, schedule adherence, wrap & hold time, utilization, sales/collections and overall balanced scores. Employee engagement, measured across several KPIs and other measures of business process activity, also increased.
TouchPoint One created A-GAME to deliver on the promise of gamification by ensuring complete alignment with the full range of business KPIs and through specialized application design geared specifically for contact centers. No other gamification solution offers a comparable level of performance management integration, employee engagement and recognition features, performance analytics, or turn-key implementation.
