NiCE Launches Workforce Empowerment Suite for the Hybrid AI Workforce

Key Terms

soc 2 type ii regulatory

A SOC 2 Type II report is an independent audit that verifies a company’s operational controls for protecting customer data work effectively over a sustained period, not just at a single point in time. Think of it like a multi-month health inspection for a business’s data practices: it reassures customers and investors that systems are managed reliably, lowering the risk of breaches, service interruptions, and regulatory or liability costs.

iso 27001 regulatory

ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard that sets out the best practices for managing and protecting sensitive information within an organization. It acts like a security blueprint, helping companies ensure data is kept safe from theft, loss, or damage. For investors, organizations with ISO 27001 certification demonstrate a strong commitment to information security, reducing the risk of data breaches that could impact business stability and reputation.

pci dss regulatory

A set of security rules created by major payment card companies to protect credit and debit card data when businesses store, process, or transmit it. It matters to investors because compliance is like a strong lock on a store: businesses that follow these standards reduce the risk of costly data breaches, fines, legal trouble and customer loss, while noncompliance can lead to direct financial penalties and damage to reputation and revenue.

fedramp moderate authorization regulatory

A FedRAMP Moderate Authorization is a formal federal approval showing a cloud service meets a mid-level government security standard for protecting sensitive but unclassified data. Think of it like a safety inspection sticker for cloud services: it signals vetted cybersecurity controls and ongoing monitoring. For investors, it matters because this approval opens access to sizable government contracts, raises barriers to entry for competitors, and indicates higher operational and compliance discipline.

genai technical

Generative AI (genai) is a type of artificial intelligence designed to create new content, such as text, images, or music, that resembles human-produced work. It matters to investors because it has the potential to transform industries by automating tasks, enhancing creativity, and enabling new products and services, which can influence company performance and market opportunities.

Giving enterprises full command of a hybrid workforce of humans and AI agents, with one standard for performance, governance, and customer experience.

HOBOKEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- NiCE (Nasdaq: NICE) today introduced the Workforce Empowerment Suite, giving enterprises one operating model to manage, govern, and empower human employees and AI agents at scale. Announced at NiCE World 2026, the Suite provides enterprises a single framework to deliver customer experience operational excellence across their people and AI workforce, helping them optimize customer and employee experiences, maximize profitability, and manage compliance as the workforce scales.

The CXone Workforce Empowerment Suite: one operating model for human and AI agents

NiCE unifies workforce management, quality, performance, compliance, and AI operations on a single AI-native platform, so human and AI workstreams share signals and boundaries instead of living in separate systems. Because the work runs on one model, the same rules, goals, and quality bar apply whether an interaction is handled by a person or an AI agent. AI-powered forecasting, scheduling, and a new Copilot for Workforce Managers align capacity to service outcomes, and coaching insights and shared dashboards unify visibility across the workforce. GenAI workflows scale quality to up to 100% of interactions, with auto-summarized evaluations that surface strengths, gaps, and next best actions.

Industry analysts see this as a defining moment for workforce operations in the agentic era.

“This is one of the most consequential shifts in workforce operations in a generation. For decades, NiCE set the standard for managing the human workforce in the contact center. With this launch, they are doing it again for the hybrid workforce,” said Sheila McGee-Smith, founder and principal analyst at McGee-Smith Analytics. “Every enterprise running customer service is about to confront the same question: how do you govern, coach, and scale a workforce that is half human and half AI? NiCE has answered it first, and they’ve answered it at the scale major enterprises operate at.”

“Every enterprise is now running a hybrid workforce of people and AI agents,” said Jeff Comstock, President of CX Product & Technology, NiCE. “NiCE’s Workforce Empowerment Suite lets them govern, coach, and scale that workforce as one so every customer gets the same experience, whether they reach a person or an AI agent.”

Governing a hybrid workforce works best on a secure foundation, and the Workforce Empowerment Suite is built on the same standards enterprises already trust NiCE to meet, including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and FedRAMP Moderate authorization, protecting customer data at the highest levels of assurance.

The Workforce Empowerment Suite is available now. Learn more here.
