01

Can OLYMP work as an extension of our internal team?

Yes. We structure our teams to operate as an extension of your organization rather than as a disconnected third party. Our teams can follow your processes, use your systems, communicate through your preferred channels and work according to your internal KPIs and quality standards. Depending on the engagement, you can also have dedicated team leadership, quality assurance support and operational management responsible for day-to-day performance.

02

Can we have a dedicated team?

Dedicated teams are one of our core delivery models. You can build a team around a specific function, market, language, product or customer segment. Dedicated teams can include customer support employees, back-office specialists, technical support professionals, QA specialists, team leaders, developers and other roles. This gives you greater control over training, workflows, performance and team development.

03

Can we start with a small team?

Yes. Our minimum starting team is 5 people. Our operating model can support dedicated teams starting from 5 employees and scale to significantly larger operations as your requirements grow. This allows businesses to establish their processes, evaluate performance and expand the team as demand increases.

04

What happens after I contact OLYMP?

The first step is understanding your business and the problem you are trying to solve. We discuss your required services, expected volumes, working hours, languages, technology requirements, team size and KPIs. We then develop an operating model and commercial proposal around your requirements.

05

What is the next step?

If you are considering outsourcing customer support, back-office operations or tech development, we can start with a conversation about your requirements. Tell us what you are trying to achieve, how many people you need, what markets you serve and when you want to launch. We will help you build the right team.

What happens when someone leaves the team?

OLYMP BPO starts recruiting a replacement while operations management keeps coverage stable, using cross-trained colleagues where possible. Documented procedures and a shared knowledge base keep knowledge in the team rather than with individuals.

Can the team grow or shrink?

Teams can grow seat by seat as volume or scope increases, subject to recruitment time for the profile. Reductions follow the notice terms agreed in the contract. Planned seasonal peaks are best agreed in advance so trained people are ready when volume arrives.

Which currencies and time zones does OLYMP BPO work in?

The team works on Central European Time and can schedule shifts for US, UK and other time zones. Contracts are commonly agreed in euro or US dollars; ask about other currencies during the proposal.
