摘要:
Systems and methods for providing adaptive estimated wait time predictions for work items are provided. More particularly, a processor-enabled module may select a best estimated wait time algorithm from among a plurality of estimated wait time algorithms that meets the accuracy and calculation resource conditions of a contact center based on rules. Furthermore, the conditions of a contact center may change at times and as a result the selection of which estimated wait time algorithm is considered best will adapt to suit the contact center change. In addition, the selected best estimated wait time prediction can be provided to client communication devices.

A contact center is described along with various methods and mechanisms for administering the same. The contact center proposed herein provides the ability to, among other things, support the ability to flexibly apply a plurality of different work assignment algorithms simultaneously, weight work item routing decisions received from each work assignment algorithm, and then make a final work item routing decision based on a weighted combination of the work item routing decisions.
摘要:
Agents in a contact center are grouped dynamically by defining performance metrics against which agents are to be judged, and generating an evaluation score for each of a number of agents by comparing their actual performance data to the defined performance metrics. Agents are assigned to the groups based on their performance scores. This provides the ability to generate reports and route contacts according to actual agent performance judged relative to user-specified performance metrics. The sizes of groups can be adjusted in real time to take account of actual or anticipated levels of contacts with different requirements, and agents can be reallocated among the resized groups on the fly based on the ranking of their evaluation scores.

A contact center is described along with various methods and mechanisms for administering the same. The contact center proposed herein provides the ability to, among other things, selectively interrupt a contact center agent in an AUXILIARY state. This enables the contact center to accommodate sudden influxes of work items without substantially increasing customer wait time.
摘要:
A distributed contact center and method of managing tasks within such a contact center is provided. The various sites of the distributed contact center are adapted to bid on contacts by transmitting bids to a work item distribution mechanism via RTP streams, thereby enabling the work item distribution mechanism to analyze the bids in real-time and route the contact accordingly.
摘要:
Provided herein is a system and method for determining a service agent start time objective for a customer contact and matching agents and customers based on meeting that objective. The method may include: receiving a customer contact to request service; determining a service completion objective for the customer contact based upon a service-level agreement; determining a handling time limit based on a historical elapsed handling time; and subtracting the handling time limit from the service completion objective, to produce the service agent start time.
摘要:
A contact center 100 having a plurality of performance goals is provided. The contact center includes a routing agent 232 operable, when a work item is to be routed to a servicing destination 134, 138 or 208, determine, for each performance goal, a status of goal realization 304 or 504 and a corresponding set of selection criteria 308 or 508 for the determined statuses of goal realization and a destination selector 216 or 220 operable to select the servicing destination based, at least in part, on the set of selection criteria.
摘要:
A contact center is described along with various methods and mechanisms for administering the same. The contact center proposed herein provides the ability to calculate short-term predictor metrics for achieving particular percent service level objectives in a plurality of skills, determine an optimal skill based on the comparison of short-term predictor metrics, and assign an agent to the optimal skill to increase the contact center's overall operational efficiency and performance.
摘要:
A contact center 100 including a grouping agent 232 that is operable to (a) select a first work item 308a, 312a, 316a, or 320a for servicing by a contact center resource; (b) determine whether the first work item is related to a second work item 308b, 312b, 316b, or 320b; and (c) when the first work item is related to the second work item, create, for servicing by the contact center resource, a first work item grouping comprising the first and second work items.
