Who We Are

Founded in 1992, Optima is a business services provider specializing in complex customer service outsourcing with a focus on utilities and financial services.

Over the years, Optima has developed a reputation for excellence in our target industries. By the numbers, that’s 15-20 core clients with an average tenure of 15 years. We operate as both sole service provider and as compliment to in-house resources and offer on-site, hybrid, work-from-home service models.

Obviously, solutions for each client vary according to their specific needs. But what every client gets is a committed Optima team that builds and maintains optimal relationships from the moment customers or prospects pick up the phone, open a web-chat, or send an email. We continuously build on our success by learning from each day’s customer interaction.

100% of Optima staff is located within North America.

Benefits of Specialization

  1. We recruit and develop staff to become licensed Life, Accident & Sickness insurance agents. We can train our people (or recruit new ones) for virtually any industry, whether it involves complex products & services, or not.
  2. Regulated industry clients demand extreme vigilance in written correspondence and fulfillment. They also require a strong administrative back office and payment processing. Optima provides this service level to our current clients. Any business—including yours—can benefit from it.
  3. Our financial services clients have required us to deliver validated bank-class security, in both technology and procedures, for over 30 years. We provide the same level of security to all clients.

Benefits of Outsourcing

  1. Increase sales results.
  2. Improve customer service metrics and scalability.
  3. Measurable cost savings.
