How Does “UC” Fit Into The “CC” • Presence and awareness are already included in the ACD since the beginning • Do you add more ACD licenses for knowledge workers? • Do you use off-the-shelf IM applications that extend a life line? • IM applications allow skill grouping and show presence; but presence is not guaranteed • Formal contact centers (over 80 calls per agent) watch every second • Agents handle repetitive transactions; good desktop workflow and knowledge management have more of an impact than a “life line” • What is the trade-off between FCR and AHT? • What happens to FTE requirements?
How Does “UC” Fit Into The “CC” • The IP paradigm shift (end points vs. phones) supports centralized technology with decentralized workforce creating more informal contact centers • Less repetition of transactions requires more access to knowledge • First Contact Resolution may require finding a SME • Can your ACD system and Unified Desktop find a SME using IM and conference them in? Can you report on it? • What about IM applications being the source of the contact? • Can you take and make interactions using your routing and workflow tools? • Is your unified desktop ready to manage the interactions while capturing history for reporting?
