Steps
Configure the IVR to capture caller intent (roadside type) and location before or during agent handoff
Use computer-telephony integration (CTI) to pop the caller's account/vehicle/location context on the agent's screen automatically
Have the agent create or confirm the dispatch job directly from the CTI-linked screen rather than re-keying details
Route the created job into the dispatch/TMS system the same way an app-originated job would be handled
Log call recordings/transcripts against the job record for quality and dispute resolution
Known gotchas
CTI/IVR integration specifics are highly dependent on the specific phone system and dispatch software pairing in use; there is no single public standard covering this space, so treat this as a workflow pattern rather than a fixed API
Poor caller location capture in the IVR (e.g., relying on caller-stated location instead of GPS) is a common source of dispatch delay/misroute compared to app-originated digital dispatch
