Conduct Call Center Performance Audit

Conduct Call Center Performance Audit

The average customer service call center tracks more than 25 metrics.  The typical approach is to get quantity over quality, with call center managers assuming that the more data points they watch, the better the operation will perform.

The unfortunate truth is that most auditable metrics are only marginally relevant, if at all.  

Leaders of contact center operations, who want to really focus on performance, spend their time tracking and analyzing the following metrics: 

• Cost per Call

• Customer Satisfaction

• First Contact Resolution Rate

• Agent Utilization

• Aggregate Call Center Performance

When it comes time to audit the well being of the operation and its success, or failure, the above measurements will be key.  As discussed, there are many other items that can be reviewed, but we know that these are the five metrics that matter most because the empirical evidence from over 1,000 call center benchmarks supports this conclusion.
