FAQ
What information do you need to calculate staffing requirements?
I typically need contact volume, average handling time (AHT), service level targets, operating hours, and relevant workforce assumptions such as shrinkage. If some information is unavailable, I can help identify the assumptions needed to proceed.
Do you support both single-channel and multichannel contact centers?
Yes. I support single-channel and multichannel operations, provided the necessary workload data and information about agent skills and channel allocation are available.
Can you optimize an existing agent schedule?
Yes. I can review your current staffing plan and schedules, identify potential coverage gaps or excess staffing, and recommend adjustments to agent numbers, shift start times, shifts, and days off.
Can you work with an RFP or tender document?
Yes. The End-to-End Workforce Planning package can include reviewing RFP or tender requirements, defining staffing assumptions, calculating workforce needs, evaluating scenarios, and preparing a scheduling plan.
