 Executive Summary
Researchers at BenchmarkPortal, in conjunction with the academic staff at Center for Customer-Driven Quality at Purdue University have been collecting call center performance data since 1995. Although there are over 200 parameters to measure in a call center, only twenty-eight have been found to strongly correlate to optimizing a balance between the quality and quantity of calls handled.
Of these twenty-eight key performance indicators (KPIs), only twelve are absolutely necessary for conducting an initial RealityCheck™ benchmark report of how a call center is performing in comparison to other call centers in the same industry.
This Industry Report is strictly for in the Consumer Products industry sector. For those looking to “dig deeper” into their performance, there is also a Consumer Products Industry Report that compares all twenty-eight KPIs.
BenchmarkPortal was awarded a U.S. Patent in 2005 for its unique methodology of benchmarking call centers. That methodology has been utilized in preparing this report.
What makes this report unique and valuable are the following very special industry analytics contained herein:
- a table of key classification characteristics that typifies call centers in this industry,
- a performance matrix that compares you to your industry,
- a table of KPIs that impact the effectiveness of your call center,
- a table of KPIs that impact the efficiency of your call center,
- a gap analysis table identifying major gaps and their costs to your call center, if left unresolved; and
- our glossary of terms and definitions.
