  • Publication number: 20250139542
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for adjusting agents staffing levels of a successive work-shift of a preassigned ongoing work-shift, during the preassigned ongoing work-shift, in a contact center. The computer-implemented method includes: (i) during the preassigned ongoing work-shift, determining a number of agents to handle inbound-interactions that require one or more skills for the successive work-shift; (ii) comparing the number of agents to handle inbound-interactions that require one or more skills to a threshold; (iii) when the number of agents to handle inbound-interactions that require one or more skills is above the threshold, calculating a number of extra-agents; and (iv) operating a shift-extension module to: (a) select the calculated number of extra-agents from agents having the one or more skills which are assigned to the preassigned ongoing work-shift; and (b) update corresponding schedules of the selected number of extra-agents, in a database of a Workforce Management (WFM) system.

  • Publication number: 20250061495
    Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods for calibrating evaluator feedback relating to agent-customer interaction(s) based on corresponding customer feedback. An agent evaluation form is generated based on customer feedback provided via a customer questionnaire. By comparing evaluator feedback received via completion of the agent evaluation form by one or more user-selected evaluators to the customer feedback provided via the customer questionnaire, a customer feedback variance score is calculated for the one or more user-selected evaluators.
