The Elements Of Our Offering Are:
Understanding The Goals Of The Client
- Meeting with clients to understand exactly what their goals are for their call center operations. This can be done on-site at the client’s premises, or remotely, depending on client desires and budget.
22 KPI Benchmarking Survey Report: In-Depth RealityCheck™
- Twenty-two key performance metrics that compare the Call Center to others in its industry
-
A Balanced Scorecard that groups the metrics into two categories:
- Efficiency, or cost-related metrics, and Effectiveness, or quality-related metrics
- A Performance Matrix, that puts these metrics through an expert formula and plots the target call center against its industry peers
On-Site Audit of the Target Customer Contact Center(s) by Industry Experts
Audit of the target customer contact center(s) by industry experts, certified by the Center for Customer-Driven Quality. These experts analyze the benchmarking results and conduct a structured, 24-process review of the center(s) using BenchmarkPortal's proprietary methodology. Typically, a team of experts will spend three days at each site to "bottom out" strengths and weaknesses that a potential acquirer should know about people, processes, and technology, and how the center’s practices stack up against current best practices.
Agent Satisfaction Survey
This in-depth look at the state of satisfaction, loyalty, and longevity of the customer care employees is a "must have" for acquiring companies. Created by our CCDQ experts, this survey gives insights into agent attitudes, which studies show have a high correlation with customer satisfaction. Happy agents make for happy customers. The reverse is also true. Open-ended questions also provide excellent insights and ideas for acquiring management.
Caller Satisfaction Survey
This is tailored to the needs of the individual situation, and can be aimed at caller satisfaction only (i.e., measuring satisfaction with the customer contact function alone), or can be broadened to include customer satisfaction in general. We can also provide a critical assessment of the current survey methodologies utilized by the target company.
Post Assessment
The Audit will result in a PowerPoint WebEx presentation, plus a concise written report that details the methodology, limitations, findings and conclusions of the Audit. The BenchmarkPortal team will create a roadmap for your center to improve select areas and show potential areas for cost savings. A template of a sample Audit report is available upon request.
