The Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA) has awarded ETAN Industries a contract to provide back-office support for its toll-account operations. Under the three-year contract, ETAN will assume account management responsibilities for THEA's unpaid toll by plate accounts including customer service, notification, dispute resolution and payment processing.
Dallas-based ETAN will open a call centre in Tampa and provide staff for satellite customer service locations in the community. In support of THEA's small business enterprise (SBE) policy, which was designed to encourage opportunities for small and minority-owned companies, ETAN has pledged to work with SBE or MBE (minority business enterprise) certified businesses whenever possible for its Tampa-based operations.
The ETAN/THEA partnership is expected to bring approximately US$1 million to the Tampa Bay economy in its first year. The contract also provides the option of two one-year extensions.
