The state of California is seeking information from vendors regarding the provision of an integrated telephony and customer relationship management (CRM) system to modernize its call center operations. The current Consumer Information Management System (CIMS) is built on unsupported Oracle technology, resulting in a lack of vendor support and operational inefficiencies.

The proposed solution should enable seamless integration between telephony and CRM systems, allowing for the automatic capture of consumer case data at the point of phone contact. This will eliminate the need for manual data entry, reduce errors, and ensure real-time visibility into consumer interactions. Additionally, the system should offer reliable and user-friendly reporting tools to improve transparency and enable stakeholders to access accurate information easily.

Replacing or upgrading the existing CIMS with a modern, integrated platform represents a key opportunity to address ongoing issues such as data inaccuracies, missing records, and reporting inefficiencies. The new solution is expected to streamline call center workflows, enhance data integrity, and significantly improve response times.
