Project Data MOCCA • Goal: Designing and Implementing a • (universal) data-base/data-repository and interface • for storing, retrieving, analyzing and displaying • Call-by-Call-based data/information Enable the Study of: - Customers - Service Providers / Agents - Managers / System • Wait Time, Abandonment, Retrials • Service Duration, Activity Profile • Loads,Queue Lengths, Trends
Project Data MOCCA • System Components: • Clean databases: operational histories of • individual calls, agents and sometimes customers (ID’s). • 2. Friendly powerful interface: online access to (mostly) operational and (some) administrative data (but no financial data, yet). • Currently Two Databases: • US Bank (220/40M calls, 1000 agents, 2.5 years; 7-20GB). • Israeli Cellular phone company (800 agents, 2.5 years, ongoing).
Data MOCCA - Interface • Daily / monthly / yearly reports & flow-charts for a complete operational view. • Graphs and tables, in customized resolutions (month, days, hours, minutes, seconds) for a variety of (pre-designed) operational measures (arrival rates, abandonment counts, service- and wait-time distribution, utilization profiles,…). • Graphs and tables for new user-defined measures. • Direct access to the raw (cleaned) data.
