  • Publication number: 20200412876
    Abstract: A contact center queue is monitored to determine if the contact center queue meets an overload condition. For example, the contact center queue may be considered to be overloaded when there are ten voice calls on hold in the contact center queue . The contact center queue holds communication sessions in a first communication media (e.g., voice calls). In response to the first contact center queue meeting the first overload condition, a reserve agent group is identified that is associated with the contact center queue. The reserve agent group normally supports communication sessions in a second communication media (e.g., email). A communication session held in the first contact center queue in the first communication media is routed to a contact center resource (e.g., a contact center agent or contact center application) of the first reserve agent group.

  • Patent number: 9413890
    Abstract: A metrics optimization system for managing key performance indicators (KPIs) of a contact center is disclosed. The metrics optimization system includes a monitoring module configured to monitor the KPIs of agents and work items. The metrics optimization system further includes a ranking module configured to rank the monitored KPIs based on predefined rules. The metrics optimization system further includes a display module configured to display the KPIs to a first supervisor from a plurality of supervisors based on the ranks of the monitored KPIs. The metrics optimization system further includes an analysis module configured to analyze performance of the first supervisor to improve the displayed KPIs. The metrics optimization system further includes an assign module configured to assign the displayed KPIs to a second supervisor based on the performance of the first supervisor.
