The value of quality of service, in an inbound environment, is expressed as a percentage, taking various factors into consideration based on the definition of two parameters:

– Maximum Waiting Time.

The value measures deviation from the Reference Waiting Time as a percentage. 100% is reached if the calls received are all answered and specifically if they are answered within the Reference Waiting Time.

The percentage declines if the percentage of unanswered calls increases and if the calls are answered after the Reference Waiting Time, but it increases to a lesser extent if they are answered before the Reference Waiting Time.

11. Operator Panel

12.2 What is georeferencing?

Sales Representative’ appointments can be made using a georeferencing system that automatically calculates the geographical distance between one appointment and another and provides this information to the Agent. The system guarantees adequate amounts of time between appointments so that the Sales Representative will be able to arrive in the right place without overlapping.

Geo-dialing is a system that supports the optimization of arranging appointments for agents. It allows the viewing of the records present in the same area corresponding to one or more agents and guarantees optimization of time and reduced consumption, thereby improving sales turnover from useful contacts. This system combines perfectly with geo-referencing, replacing a process that until now was handled manually and often incorrectly.
