Abstract
A method and system matching contact center agents and back office staff with a customer inquiry. Exemplary systems include an expert term extraction engine, a customer term extraction engine, and a matching engine to compare customer request terms to the expert terms from the customer term extraction engine. The comparison determines whether there is a match or potential match between the customer request terms and the stored expert terms. An exemplary system may also include a timer that communicates with one or more communication servers. Back office staff may assist contact center agents when one or more conditions are met, such as when a customer wait time exceeds a predetermined period or when there is no match or potential match between the customer request terms and the stored expert terms for contact center agents.
