Abstract
A computerized-method for redirecting inbound-voice-interactions to digital channels in a contact center, is provided herein. The computerized-method includes: (i) operating a digital-qualifier module to determine a digital-medium-transition-quotient, of an inbound-voice-interaction of a customer in an inbound-queue. The digital-medium-transition-quotient is an indication of a level of suitability of a digital-communication-channel to resolve a customer issue; (ii) operating an interaction-redirection module to determine a digital-communication-channel for redirection of the inbound-voice-interaction, based on customer-preference and the determined digital-medium-transition-quotient; and (iii) forwarding the inbound-voice-interaction and the determined digital-communication-channel to an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) system to be carried-out by an agent via the determined digital-communication-channel when the determined digital-medium-transition-quotient is above a preconfigured threshold.
