Abstract

Disclosed is a computer-implemented method for providing a call efficiency indicator. The method includes determining an agent scheduled time for a call efficiency indicator period; determining a number of calls handled by the agent for each particular call type during the call efficiency indicator period; calculating the average time it took that agent to handle calls, on a call type basis and during the call efficiency indicator period; determining an Average Handle Time metric; calculating idle time for the agent for the call efficiency indicator period; and calculating the call efficiency indicator for the call efficiency indicator period as a function of the number of calls handled by the agent, the Average Handle Time, the idle time, and the agent scheduled time.
