The wise decision was made to shut down their locations and send all their employees home for their safety. The client requested over 14,000 additional hours of call time in less than 48 hours' notice to cover all lines of business that would need to be picked up by Service Partners using the Arise® Platform.

Arise quickly consulted with the client and kicked into action.
