Use Quality Management evaluations to improve agent productivity as well as customer satisfaction. Quality Management evaluations enable you to promote a specific agenda that results in easy detection and training of agents who do not adhere to compliance or specified procedures.

SpeechMiner Quality Management enables you to create five types of evaluations:

Refer to Quality Management workflow for a better understanding about the evaluation process.

Important
  • You cannot create an evaluation without a form. Before you create an evaluation, verify that a form(s) was created.
  • The Evaluation Session list will automatically refresh when a new set of evaluation sessions is available. To manually refresh the Evaluation Session list, click the Refresh button Refreshgrid.png.

Distributed Interaction Evaluation

The SpeechMiner Quality Management - Distributed Interaction Evaluation creates evaluation sessions about interactions for selected evaluators. Each evaluator will be assigned an evaluation session for each agent associated with the evaluation. The evaluation is created about the agents who participated in the selected interactions. For example, if you add 2 evaluators and 3 interactions (each with a different agent) to the evaluation, 6 evaluation sessions will be created. That is, each evaluator will be asked to fill out the evaluation for each one of the 3 agents.

Create a Distributed Interaction evaluation

  1. Click Quality > Evaluations Manager. The Evaluations Manager grid appears.
  2. Click the drop down arrow next to New Evaluation and select Distributed > Interaction.
  3. In the Untitled Evaluation field, enter the name of your evaluation.
  4. In the Description field, enter a description of the evaluation.
  5. From the Schedule list select one of the following, and configure the schedule using the options available:
    • Recurring: Use to create an evaluation that repeatedly produces evaluation sessions for a configurable time interval.
    • One Time: Use to create an evaluation that only produces evaluation sessions once.
    The available schedule configuration options are:
    • Start - The date on which the evaluation session(s) should be created.
    • Time.png - The time at which the evaluation session(s) should begin.
    • Occur every - The frequency (Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks or Months) with which the evaluation recurs.
    • Expires after - The time (Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks or Months) at which the evaluation session should be performed after the evaluation is created.
  6. Select the Forms tab and from the Forms list, select the forms to add to the evaluation. As soon as you select a form from the list, it appears in the Evaluation Summary under Forms. Select the form again to remove the form from the Evaluation Summary. The forms selected consist of the questions that must be answered to complete the evaluation session.
  7. Select the Evaluators tab and from the Evaluators list, select the evaluator(s) that should perform the evaluation session(s). As soon as you select an evaluator from the list, the evaluator name appears in the Evaluation Summary under Evaluators. Select the evaluator again to remove the evaluator from the Evaluation Summary. Each evaluator will receive an evaluation session to evaluate the agent(s) associated with the selected interactions.
  8. Select the Interactions tab.
    1. Select Recurring or One Time. If you selected a Recurring schedule in step #5, you cannot select the interactions yourself. The resulting interaction list associated with the evaluation corresponds to what you entered in the search filter. If you selected a One Time schedule, select one of the following:
      • Interactions: Enables you to select interactions from the list of interactions created after you click Search.
      • Interaction Criteria: Randomly selects interactions from the interaction list resulting from your specific search. The amount of interactions selected correspond to what you entered in the Exactly field.
        Important
        If you select Interaction Criteria, continue directly to step 9.
    2. Configure the evaluation filter options on the left side of the screen, to generate a list of interactions.
      Your filter selections should be directly related to the business issue for which you want to evaluate an agent(s).
      For additional information, see Search filter.
    3. Click Search.
      Important
      If you selected Interactions in step 8a, from the list provided select the interactions (one at a time) that you would like to add to the evaluation.

Calibration Evaluation

The SpeechMiner Quality Management - Calibration Evaluation creates evaluation sessions that can be used to compare evaluator performance, to ensure consistency across teams. A Calibration Evaluation is performed on one evaluation in the same way as a Distributed Interaction Evaluation session, the difference is that the result of these evaluation sessions can be used in a Calibration Score report (that is, a report that compares how the evaluators filled out the same evaluation session).

Create a Calibration evaluation

  1. Click Quality > Evaluations Manager. The Evaluations Manager grid appears.
  2. Click the drop down arrow next to New Evaluation and select Calibration.
