Empower E-Workforce Management An Introduction

Welcome

eWFM/ Empower

Provide real time information on what an agent is currently doing and comparing it
to what they are to be scheduled to be doing. Allow agents to request time off and receive automatic approvals. Allow the team managers to preplan off phone activity by scheduling time into an agents schedule. Allow the agents the ability to sign up for extra hours or voluntary down time. Allow Operations access to view IDP that is updated real time throughout the day.

How does eWFM Impact Me?

Automate many existing Transcom processes and reduces the need for certain Tandims, Allow agent flexibility with shift trades, vacation with automated approvals and reduce wait times. Improved response time when requesting coaching, meeting etc Allow for greater visibility of agents activities vs. scheduled to improve performance.

This view shows the intra-day staffing balances for the selected staff group and date, as of the last time the balances were updated. Use the displayed balances to judge whether or not a schedule change request of less than a full day can be approved. For example, suppose you want to request a few hours of overtime or time off, change your shift to a later time, or do a different type of work during the last part of your shift.

29

Intra-Day Staffing Balances

Before entering your request, view the following balances for the intra-day periods that will be affected by it:
Allowable Increase in Staff The number of additional agents that can be scheduled to work in this period. A value of 2.00, for example, means that no more than two agents can be approved for extra work time. A zero or a negative number usually means that a request for work during that period will not be approved. Allowable Decrease in Staff The number of scheduled agents that can be allowed to leave or do something else during this period. A zero or a negative number usually means that a request for time off (for some other type of work) during that period will not be approved.

Adding, Changing and Deleting Segments

59

Copy/Delete/Edit

When you are in Segments View you will see 3 buttons. Copy / Delete / Edit

60

Adding Segments
Segments can be entered in one of two fashions. Either by segment package or individual segments, and can be either detailed, or general. In most cases, segments will always be entered using the detailed method.

Detailed Segments have a specific start and stop time, where as, general segments entered would apply to an entire shift. Segment packages are groups of segments that are required to complete certain entries.

61

Adding Segments
To add a segment to an agents schedule, select the employee you wish to add the segment to, then simply click on the Add Segment icon. A dialogue box will open up.

62

Adding Segments

Adding Segments

Select the start and stop time, then click on the Code: box, a list of segments available to you will populate.

The list is quite large, so scroll to the appropriate segment and select it.
Please note that some segments are regional based and should only be used in those regions

63

Adding Segments
Next, select a Start time and End time for the segment (detailed) or place a check mark in the All Day box (general). As stated before almost all segments will be detailed segments to maintain accuracy.
Please note that some segments require a memo to be entered, so it is a good habit to just enter them in for all. Memos will be visible to all who can look or view the segments (including other agents) so personal information should be kept out.

Aspect Workforce Real Time Adherence Training

65

Introduction
What is Perform?
Perform is a combination of Real Time Adherence and Agent Productivity that gives team leaders and managers better visibility of what agents are actually doing in comparison to what they were scheduled to be doing. RTA is a proactive tool that shows alarms after certain thresholds when agents are not doing what they were scheduled to do. Agent Productivity is the reports that come across the following day for the previous day with compliance and signed in percentages. These tools help Team Leaders manage their staff more effectively and be proactive to problems as opposed to reactive.

These do not replace existing policies or procedures, but rather assist the Team Leaders when it is time to engage them.

66

Components
Compliance reports have two measurements:
Component Sign-in % Compliance % Description What % of my scheduled time was I signed in for? What % of my breaks, meetings etc did I take when I was scheduled to take them?

67

Importance

Why is compliance important to our customers, our people and our business?

Are available to answer our customers when they call Can evenly distribute the workload across all Agents Optimise productivity across the business.

68

Benefits of Schedule Compliance

Leads to an increase in productivity as agents are in the right place at the right time, which improves customer service.

Ensures equitable distribution of staffing throughout the day as agents are taking their breaks as scheduled.

Results in an increased grade of service for customers.

69

Non-compliance - Impact on Customers

Available Agents Av.Delay (ASA) Service Level (GOS) (x% in 20secs) 75% 66% 55% 40% 22%

55 54 53 52 51

18 sec 28 sec 46 sec 84 sec 201 sec

750 calls are received between 9 - 10am Each call takes 240 seconds to handle The goal in this example is to answer calls in under 20 seconds.

70

Non-compliance - Impact on Customers

When the scheduled number of agents are available to answer customers calls, meeting the ASA target of 20 seconds is easy. With 55 Agents available, the delay in answering the calls would be 18 seconds. With 54 Agents available, the delay in answering the calls would be 28 seconds. The impact of having only 51 of the 55 scheduled Agents available is an additional 3 minutes of wait time and would be very noticeable to the caller. This also results in GOS being only 22% in 20 seconds. So you can see the impact of not being where you should be can have a large impact on the customer waiting time.

71

Non-compliance - Impact on Agents

Available Agents Av.Delay (ASA) Occupancy Idle

55 54 53 52 51

18 sec 28 sec 46 sec 84 sec 201 sec

90% 92% 94% 96% 98%

10% 8% 6% 4% 2%

Occupancy = workload / number of available staff As occupancy increases, idle time between calls decreases - The job becomes more stressful as the available Agents have to work harder.

72

Non-adherence - Impact to Agents

In the example, with 55 agents available, the occupancy rate is 90%.

This means agents would talk to customers or complete after-call work for 90% of the hour and 10% of the time would be idle, waiting for calls to arrive -In other words they would have an extra 6 minutes of time to spread throughout the hour to catch their breath between calls.

In the previous example, occupancy rates rise quickly when a few agents arent where they are supposed to be. Every time a scheduled agent becomes unavailable, everyone else has to work a little harder. Occupancy goes up about 2% with the loss of each agent. This means the idle time between calls during the hour gets shorter and shorter. The closer the call arrivals are, with no idle time, the more stressful the job will be.

73

Real Time Adherence

What is Real Time Adherence (RTA)?

RTA is live (real time) reporting of: What an Agent is scheduled to be doing (eg. on the phones or off the phone) What activity they are actually doing (eg. Active, On Hold, Not Ready).

Schedule Compliance Benchmark

No one expects agents to get 100% compliance. Our target is not 100% as we know people do get stuck on calls from time to time or get to work a little late

Transcom Schedule Compliance Benchmark is set at 98% Compliance Target will be set by individual program.

How Do Manage Schedule Compliance? Real time monitoring of agent activity compared to agent schedule Real time agent management to drive schedule adherence Real time updates to correct errors in schedules and segments

What does RTA do?

RTA is live (real time) reporting of:

 What an Agent is scheduled to be doing (eg. on the phones or off the phone)  What activity an Agent is actually doing (eg. Active, On Hold, Not Ready).

Displays discrepancies immediately so Team Leaders can be proactive and address them as they happen.
