I’ve definitely seen it done that way. My rule of thumb for what else to add to a quality form is: Add to the quality form anything that you want to track so you can coach, train, and monitor improvement over time. At best, you’ll coach agents on a bunch of one-off issues but never see the greater impact of that coaching.
If 30% of your staff is still negotiating the learning curve towards competency, they are by definition performing at a lower level than the veteran staff. This is reflected in lower FCR, longer calls, the need for more coaching and QA resource support, and of course they achieve lower CSAT and NPS scores, costing the organization customers.
Think about the evaluation, the calibration, and the coaching. During the Survey Calibration process, those survey results would be moved from Suzie to Johnny where they should be based on the customer’s comments. That will definitely pay for a more effective customer satisfaction program. This is more humane.
Here’s a definition: Quality assurance for the contact center is about setting a standard for how the work is done and then ensuring, through evaluation, coaching, and training, that the work is consistently done at or above the standard.

Whether we use the information to coach and manage agent performance or for broader decision-making?—?unreliable You will still need to manage, recruit, train, coach, develop, and motivate your staff.?. Certain QA practices have come into question.
A simpler form means we can evaluate more interactions and spend more time coaching our agents. Create a quality definitions guide. This guide is also a great way to ensure that the entire team is well calibrated as we use it as our guide during calibration sessions. Use NA for certain questions.
It’s challenging to define a quality customer service interaction but essential if you’re going to deliver any level of consistent service to customers — let alone get agents and supervisors to all understand and agree on the standard ( this is called calibration ). Shift focus to coaching and excellence. Eliminate score haggling.
Before we discuss automation and AI for QM processes, it’s important to establish clear definitions in the context of contact centers. Definition of Quality Management Today customers are more fickle than ever — making quality management more important than ever. Improved customer experience and agent performance.
Schedule monthly calibrations with representatives from all of our different departments to review calls. This will help you set realistic and achievable targets that staff will buy into, as well as help change the perception of your senior management team as to the definition of high performers.
Also, investing time into coaching and training can help monitor call center quality effectively. Some other mistakes that we often see are skipping calibration, not training coaches properly, and overwhelming those who monitor and coach. This can all lead to negative outcomes such as burnout and inconsistent evaluations.
Plus, you’ll have a central location with all of the information you need to coach your call center reps. You’ll probably have a different vision of success than your competitors (and definitely different from companies outside of your industry). What to Include on Your Scorecard. All businesses are different.
Let’s start with a definition of Customer Experience. I really like the definition from Mike Wittenstein , managing Partner of Story Miners® : “Customer Experience is the sum of everything your brand does FOR customers minus everything your business processes does TO them. Increases in training and coaching ROI.
