Infrastructure development for communications company to comply with CCPA requests
In 2019, California passed the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) giving consumers control over all personal information in the possession of any organization doing business within the state. As a result of this legislation, within just four months, a US-based communications company needed a solution to process any consumer requests to access or delete information.
RevGen worked collaboratively with the client to deliver a fully automated end-to-end solution. Not only does this solution avert fines by complying with the law, it increases consumer transparency and trust which is the intent of the law. And it does so with a high degree of operational and IT efficiency, which keeps down the cost of delivering on consumer requests.
Upon joining the client team, RevGen quickly established a PMO function. The team assessed the situation and established five workstreams to address project needs: (1) customer experience, (2) output file generation, (3) personal information identification, (4) technology infrastructure development, and (5) legislative assessment. Throughout the project, RevGen worked with the workstream leads in making key decisions surrounding technology, business logic, process and more to ensure the system was developed at optimal level.
The PMO established a cross-functional team meeting to support project milestones and ensure smooth handshakes throughout the process. In addition, 1:1 meetings were created to drill into specific issues encountered by each workstream.
RevGen developed a PI data collection methodology which was rolled out to twenty business units. The approach met the requirements defined by the technology team and generated the minimum-required output file. Data collection began with the end in mind.
RevGen helped the business focus on the consumer experience. This included working with the cross-functional team to identify how a consumer would engage the Privacy Rights Center (submission engine, policy, FAQs, web-links, etc.). Lastly, RevGen worked with the various workstream leaders to assist in making key decisions surrounding technology, business logic, process or whatever else was needed such that the system developed was done so at an optimal level.
The fully automated end-to-end solution is capable of receiving requests, issuing requests to business units for data inputs and processing said inputs such that an output file can automatically published to the consumer.
The solution provides each consumer visibility into the information the organization maintains on them, creating an environment of trust and transparency.
The infrastructure automates 80% of the request process, creating operational, technical, and other efficiencies within the business, which significantly lowers the overall delivery cost per file.
The transfer of marketing leads to sales teams is critical for customer acquisition, however our client’s process was time consuming and heavily manual. RevGen built a proof-of-concept solution that automated the entire handoff.
To improve sales efficiency, our client needed an “At-a-Glance” customer segmentation model that could evolve with their business.
