METHOD, SYSTEM AND SOFTWARE FOR IMPLEMENTING AN AUTOMATED CALL ROUTING APPLICATION IN A SPEECH ENABLED CALL CENTER ENVIRONMENT

A system, method and software for implementing an automated call routing application in a speech enabled call center environment are provided. In operation, the invention provides for the identification of a call center transaction selection from a natural language user utterance and the invocation of one or more scripts operable to route the user to a call center service agent configured to service the selected transaction. In the event a transaction selection cannot be readily identified or can only be partially identified, the invention provides for the initiation of a dialog module or script directed to eliciting a discernable transaction selection and/or the presentation of one or more menus from which the user may select an available call center transaction.
