Contact Center
The ACD routes the calls to a pool of agents.
• It identifies and connects an incoming call to the first available agent or
queue if no agent is available
• It routes the calls to the best qualified agent to handle them
• By assigning agents with specific skills to certain skillsets, the calls are
presented to the agent with the skills required to meet the caller’s needs

Contact Center Concepts
Scripts
A script contains instructions that determine the sequence of steps that a call
follows once it arrives at the Call Center.
Calls can be routed by queuing them to:
• Specific or multiple skill sets
• Specific agents
• Other caII center destinations
Call treatment
• Music
• Recorded announcements
• Option to go to voice mail
Script Example
QUEUE TO SKILLSET skill set sk

Overview of skillsets
What is a skillset?
A skillset is a group of abilities necessary to answer a specific type of call. They are used
to match callers with the agents who can best meet their needs. Examples of skillsets:
• English
• Spanish
Agent 1
Agent 2
Agent 3
Agent 4

Contact Center Concepts
Overview of skillsets
As a supervisor, you must ensure that skillsets are serviced adequately by the available
agents. To do so, you must ensure that each skillset is staffed by enough qualified agents
to handle the call load for that skillset.
If two agents are available to answer an incoming call, the call is presented to the agent
with the highest priority for the skillset to which the call is queued.
•
•
•
•
Skillset priority is based on the agent’s skill level for a skillset
An agent with a higher skill level is assigned a higher priority
An agent with a lower skill level is assigned a lower priority
Priority can range from 1–48
If more than one agent has the same priority, it presents the call to the agent with the
greatest idle time.

Historical Reporting
Historical reports provide information about the past performance of the call center.
Two types of historical reports are available:
• Summarized historical reports—These reports contain totals accumulated over a
period of time (usually 15-minute interval, day, week, or month).
• Event (or detail) reports—These reports contain detailed information about each
event that occurred.

Report Examples
Do I have enough agents assigned to each skillset?
As a call center supervisor, you must be able to identify skillsets that are underserviced. To do so, use the Skillset
Performance report. Look for the following statistics:
•
Skillset Answered - Shows the call volume for the skillset. Skillsets with high call volumes probably need more agents.
(You should take into account the average call length for the skillset.)
•
Average Answer Delay - Shows how long, on average, callers waited in the skillset queue. Skillsets with long delays
may need additional staffing.
•
Skillset Answered After Thresh - Shows how many calls were answered after the service level threshold for the
skillset. Compare this total with your department’s targets. If it is too high, you may need additional staffing.

Using Reports to Identify Problems
Which agents need assistance and training?
As a call center supervisor, you must be able to identify agents with the following
problems:
Unusually long talk time - This may indicate that the
agent is having difficulty responding to customer
requests. (It may also indicate that the agent is handling
more complex calls than other agents.) Use the
following reports:
• Agent Average Calls Per Hour
• Agent Performance
• Agent Average Calls Per Hour, Bottom 5
(Use the Agent By Activity Code report to determine the
complexity of the calls handled by the agent.)
Unusual number of short calls - This may indicate that
the agent is terminating or redirecting calls to meet call
quota targets.
• Agent Short Calls
• Agent Performance
• Agent Average Calls Per Hour, Top 5
30
Reports
Using Reports to Identify Problems
Unusual number of transferred or conferenced calls This may indicate that the agent is
having difficulty responding to customer requests, or is
redirecting calls to meet call
quota targets.
• Agent Transferred/Conferenced Activity
• Agent Performance
Unusually long talk time or unusual number of short,
transferred, or conference calls for a
specific skillset - This may indicate that the agent does
not have the skills required for a
skillset.
• Agent By Skillset Performance (Compare the same
agent in several skillsets, and different agents in the
same skillset.)
Over- or under-utilized agents - Look for agents with
unusual amounts of Waiting time, or an unusual number of
Calls Presented. (Make sure you take into account time
spent on ACD calls.)
