• Increase the volumes of work to be completed in shorter time frames
• To diversify and expand ARL’s current client base to maximise revenues and minimise risk

Solution

Drawing on more than 150 million names, address and telephone records compiled from a comprehensive range of cross-referenced resources, FCS Search was implemented into ARL’s Skip Tracing process to ensure that their operators could contact more debtors on a daily basis and reduce their time spent searching multiple data sets, whilst providing more transparent reporting and statistics.

Results

FCS Search has reconnected ARL with approximately 30% of their previous un-contactable debtors. By providing the most up to date telephone and address contact details, we enabled ARL to increase their contact rates and save significant resources and time associated with manual searches. Specific benefits measured to date consist of:

• Increased the number of calls to debtors – from 80 to 180 calls per day
• Success in improving internal operations so that more debts can be pursed
• Increased ARL’s potential capacity for growth without the need to invest in additional staff
• Reduced the average time taken to perform a search, on average by 50%
• Reduced the time taken for users to interpret data

Australian Receivables utilises FCS Search

“FCS Search has become key to our collections processes, forming part of our leading technology applications, to ensure that we maintain contact with our debtors. Other applications in the industry rely on debtors applying for credit to maintain contact, where FCS assists to maintain contact no matter what the credit status of a debtor.

Since introduction of FCS Search into ARL, we have achieved on average a 30% increase in our location rates, over traditional sources of information available.”
