Key Results

Calls monitored~15,000Monitored through automated scoring and analyst-supported QA workflows
Annualized labor savings$32,718Under DFCU's current sampled QA policy
Projected annual labor avoided$6.43MModeled cost of manually reviewing DFCU's full monitored-call population under the legacy QA processFull-coverage benchmark
QA coverageFull coverageFrom 4 calls per agent per monthDFCU moved beyond limited manual sampling across roughly 50 to 60 agents to automated scoring across the active call population

Disclaimer: the $6.43M figure is a full-coverage benchmark modeling the cost of manually reviewing every call now monitored. It is not incremental realized cash savings, and it is separate from the $32,718 figure above, which reflects actual savings under DFCU's current sampled QA policy.

The Challenge

DFCU Had a QA Process, But It Was Difficult to Scale

DFCU's quality assurance program depended on manual listening and scoring. Each monitored call required more than 30 minutes of senior team effort, limiting coverage to approximately four calls per agent per month.

That level of sampling made it difficult to identify broader trends across training needs, process issues, call drivers, and compliance risks. The program produced real findings on the calls it reviewed. What it couldn't produce was a reliable picture of what was happening across the calls it never reached.

The Solution

How Zenylitics Helped DFCU Build a Scalable QA Intelligence Workflow

Zenylitics deployed a conversation analytics platform (CallMiner), automated scorecards, analyst validation, calibration feedback, guided insights, and Team-as-a-Service support.

The engagement was not a software handoff. Zenylitics provided the analytics expertise, scorecard tuning, validation, and reporting layer needed to turn interaction data into operational intelligence DFCU's team could act on directly.

From Raw Conversations to Coaching and Governance Intelligence

Customer conversations move through a structured path before they become a coaching or compliance decision.

Customer Conversations

Interaction data is captured across the contact center.

Conversation Analytics Platform

The platform processes calls at scale and surfaces signals.

Automated Scorecards

Consistent scoring logic is applied across interaction volume.

Analyst Validation and Calibration

Zenylitics calibrates findings to DFCU's real environment.

Guided Insights

Supervisors receive findings ready to use directly.

Coaching and Operational Decisions

Validated insights inform coaching and operational action.

Each stage builds on the one before it. Conversations get captured and processed by the analytics platform. Automated scorecards apply consistent scoring logic across the interaction volume. Zenylitics analysts validate that scoring and calibrate it against DFCU's real environment. The resulting guided insights reach supervisors in a form they can use directly for coaching and operational decisions, without requiring further interpretation.

The Impact

The Impact: Expanding QA Coverage While Reducing Manual Effort

The engagement delivered operational value without adding internal QA headcount or leaving the team with another dashboard to interpret.

$32,718

Annualized Labor Savings

Under DFCU's existing sampled QA policy. This is current-policy labor savings, not a projected full-coverage benchmark.

~15,000

Calls Monitored

Through automated scoring and analyst-supported quality workflows.

Improved QA Efficiency

Supervisors spent less time manually reviewing calls and more time using structured findings for coaching.

Better Operational Visibility

Zenylitics helped identify top call drivers, silence metrics, call avoidance signals, recap language issues, and investigative language opportunities.

Operational Change

What Changed After Implementing Conversation Analytics

The program gave DFCU a repeatable way to turn a broader set of conversations into consistent action.

01

QA Automation

Manual listening, documenting, and scoring no longer served as the primary QA process.

02

More Consistent Scorecards

Calibration improved scoring consistency, category accuracy, and reporting reliability.

03

More Specific Coaching

DFCU used transcripts and scorecard outputs to coach average handle time, upsell behavior, recap language, investigative language, and call handling consistency.

04

Risk and Governance Visibility

The program supported UDAAP reporting, compliance review, and documentation of member service issues.

A Scalable QA Model for Regulated Contact Centers

Financial contact centers face increasing call volumes, compliance requirements, limited QA resources, the need for consistent coaching, and the need for better customer experience visibility.

Financial institutions need more than interaction data. They need a process that turns conversations into measurable operational improvements, not just a wider dashboard to interpret on their own.
