Winter Park, Fla. —(March 21, 2016)—COPC Inc., a global consulting firm that helps companies improve operations to transform the customer experience (CX), is celebrating 20 years of providing consulting, training, and certification services to companies focused on delivering an exceptional experience to their customers.
COPC Inc. was founded in 1996, with the creation of the COPC Customer Service Provider (CSP) Standard, a performance management system for customer contact operations. Using this Standard, the company began by offering certification services for contact centers, with the goal of raising the entire industry to a higher level of performance.
Today COPC Inc. has grown to a global consulting organization that applies best practices to all key touchpoints across the customer journey. With an extensive presence throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia, the company works with major brands to improve customer satisfaction, increase revenue, and reduce costs in their CX operations.
COPC Inc. works with both internal and outsourced CX service providers and offers a specialized program for vendor management organizations (VMOs) to help them more effectively procure and manage third-party suppliers of CX services.

We value our partnership with COPC and look forward to working together for many more years to come,” said Mike Simms, Chief Procurement Officer, Microsoft.
“COPC has been a valued partner in not just our certification efforts, but they also bring a wealth of experience to our operations.
