Call centers face a lot of challenges including but not limited to a high rate of call abandonment, long customer wait times, high agent idle times, too many call transfers, and high agent turnover rates. An efficient call center staffing can resolve many call center challenges. However, call center staffing can be tricky. What is the right number of agents to answer incoming calls with a minimum of abandoned calls? How should managers balance this against all constraints like service levels and agent skills? The good news is that Call Center Staffing Optimization can resolve all of these challenges with best-in-class optimization solvers and data science tools.
