Systems and methods for scheduling workforces are provided. In this regard, a representative method includes: generating a forecast requirement related to a volume of work to be handled by a first workforce and a second workforce, wherein the second workforce is remote from the first workforce; generating work schedules for personnel of the second workforce based on the forecast requirement and skills of the personnel of the second workforce; receiving information corresponding to the work schedules and the skills of the personnel of the second workforce that share work with the first workforce, wherein the work schedules comprise activities; correlating the skills contained in the information with skills that are to be used for scheduling personnel of the first workforce; correlating the activities contained in the information with activities that are to be used for scheduling the personnel of the first workforce; and generating work schedules for the personnel of the first workforce based, at least in part, on a correlation between the skills of the personnel of the second workforce and the first workforce and a correlation between the activities of the personnel of the second workforce and the first workforce.

Systems and methods for scheduling contact center agents

Systems and methods of integrating workforce management and contacts analysis are disclosed. An exemplary method comprises receiving content data derived from classification of a plurality of recorded agent contacts. The contact content data is correlated with past time period. The method also comprises identifying at least one pattern in the contact content data. The pattern is based on the contact classifications. The method also comprises receiving historical workload data from a contact router, and generating a workload forecast based on the historical workload data and the identified pattern.

System and method for integrated workforce and analytics

Methods and systems are presented for integrating workforce management and quality monitoring. In one embodiment, the method comprises the steps of: receiving information about a skill; capturing a plurality of contacts made by an agent; receiving an evaluation of the contacts; and updating the skill information based on the evaluation. The skill is associated with an agent, and the evaluation measures the agent skill. In another embodiment, the method comprises the steps of: receiving information about a skill; capturing a plurality of contacts made by an agent; receiving an evaluation form for the contacts; and updating the form based on the skill information. The skill is associated with an agent, and the form produces a measurement of the agent skill.

System and method for integrated workforce and quality management

The systems and methods described herein provide a drill through engine that facilitates integration of solutions for performing workforce management, quality monitoring, e-learning, performance management, and analytics functionality. The drill through engine facilitates combining quality monitoring/call recording with performance management and e-learning functionality as a unified integrated solution. The combination can be delivered through a single platform and enables users to gain more insight and make smarter decisions faster about sales, service, and overall operations. This takes customer center tools beyond the traditional 'suite' approach to a true single workforce optimization platform.

Systems and methods for context drilling in workforce optimization

A method and system for handling real-time indications of resource scheduling conflicts. In one embodiment, the method includes a computer system including a user interface, display, processor, and some form of memory. Contained within the memory is a resource scheduling process that analyzes resource data, scheduling criteria, and work parameters to create a working schedule. In conjunction with the creation of a working schedule, the scheduling process detects resource conflicts that can inhibit the schedule's functionality. Once detected an identification process conveys the error to the user concurrently with the schedule process to provide the user with a real-time indication of resource conflicts. The indication is presented in an unobtrusive manner so as to not interfere or impede the scheduling process. In addition, should the specific resource causing the conflict be identifiable, the indication process conveys that information in a similar real-time methodology.

Method and system for concurrent error identification in resource scheduling

Systems and methods for integrating outsourcers are provided. In this regard, a representative method includes: receiving information corresponding to resources of a first contact center; and correlating the information with other information in order to improve integration of resources of the first contact center with resources of one or more other contact centers.

Systems and methods for integrating outsourcers

Systems and methods for scheduling contact center agents are provided. In this regard, a representative method includes: receiving information corresponding to work schedules and skills of agents of a remote contact center that shares contacts with a local contact center; correlating the skills with skills that are to be used for scheduling agents of the local contact center; and generating work schedules for the agents of the local contact center based, at least in part, on a correlation between the skills of the agents of the remote contact center and the local contact center, and an evaluation of the work schedules of the agents of the remote contact center.
