English term

and collection of..

English to Spanish Other Energy / Power Generation Energy and electric power
I would like to know what will be the best way to translate this phrase from American English into Puerto Rican Spanish.

It's the translation of a consultation from a Puerto Rican CEO and his American business partners about the electricity and gas production. Is okay to translate it as:" y recaudación de 1.5. millones de clientes?

Thanks for your help.

Here is the full paragraph:

As Customer Service Director he implemented the new Customer Care and Billing System to improve the quality of service, billing and collection of 1.5 million of clients. Also improved the efficiency of the Call Center by 20% and reduced the accounts receivables (23% Government and 30% Private Clients).

I think it is appropriate for any Spanish speaking country, since it is a general expression.

The term "recaudación" is correct in this sense but in my opinion, it does not fit well with the rest of the sentence.
Note from asker:
Thanks Maria. Is this appropriate for Puerto Rican Spanish? Please let me know. Thanks.
