Trailblazing organizations recognized for transforming customer and employee experiences

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today at Genesys® Xperience 2026, the premier customer experience and AI event of the year, the 2026 Orchestrators Innovation Awards honored Computacenter, Utility Warehouse, Child Bereavement UK and BCD for using AI to solve complex business challenges and elevate customer and employee experiences.

The awards recognize organizations that are setting a new standard for agentic experience orchestration by connecting customers, employees, systems and data to deliver more seamless, personalized experiences that drive growth and increasing operational efficiency.

“The organizations we’re recognizing this year are showing what’s possible when AI is applied with purpose to orchestrate more connected experiences,” said Scott Cravotta, chief customer officer at Genesys. “They’re moving beyond automation to focus on outcomes, creating more human experiences that strengthen customer loyalty and improve business performance. As AI becomes a larger part of how organizations deliver customer and employee experiences, these leaders are setting the standard for how to apply it responsibly and effectively.”

The following organizations were recognized at Xperience 2026 for their exceptional achievements across several categories:

• Experience Orchestration: Computacenter – Leveraging Genesys technology, Computacenter has put in place a single global platform for its global Service Desk orchestration that uses Genesys Cloud™ Agent Copilot, Predictive Routing and Virtual Agents to improve customer satisfaction and service efficiency.
