In light of the recent Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, Equiant has activated its Business Continuity Plans to support the general health of its employees and maximize productivity in its workforce. The financial services and technology provider’s clients can rest assured that systemic business processes including payment processing, reporting, and account management are not impacted and are business as usual. The company’s call center and client-service teams will remain active at all times. All Equiant employees who work remotely have been permissioned with a secure company laptop and will log in via a Virtual Private Network via two-factor authentication.
The company is also reminding clients that Equiant’s cloud-based solutions mean that anyone using eqConnect can manage outreach campaigns through an advanced preview dialer and Interactive Voice Response technology. This means that companies practicing social distancing by having employees work remotely can stay current on productivity even in these challenging times.
Equiant’s servicing technology solutions can be rapidly reconfigured, which means clients who wish to offer payment relief to consumers have options.
Clients who wish to offer these options to consumers should consult with their Equiant representative, and when appropriate their lender, to initiate the process.
“We are well aware that this is perhaps the most challenging period U.S. businesses have ever faced,” says Peter Moody, Equiant’s chief business development officer. “That’s why we’re reminding our clients and employees that we are standing by to assist and advise them as they plan for the coming months. The health and safety of our staff, as well as our clients, remains our No. 1 focus, so we’re doing all we can to maintain business continuity while adhering to social distancing standards.”
Equiant has endorsed and donated to Governor Doug Ducey’s Arizona Together program, which was established to help local communities combat the spread of COVID-19 and support local businesses and individuals during the recovery period. To learn more, visit www.arizonatogether.org.
In light of limited supplies of toilet paper and essential food items in local stores, Equiant’s leadership team is also supporting their staff by creating the Equiant Marketplace, which is restocked daily. Here, Equiant’s employees can ease their minds a bit by picking up these basic necessities for their families. Any remaining items will be donated to a local food bank.
