Call Center Management
“Call Center Management” covers everything one can wish for and is a simple
walkthrough of what is actually needed to startup and efficiently run a call center. This project
solution will help everyone from senior management to front line service reps gain a better
understanding and appreciation of the dynamic call center environment
This project presents the results of a survey of the management of call center operations
at major financial service firms. The results clearly indicate the importance of human resource
management practices and technology in creating high-performance call center environments.
The Call Center Management is mainly designed to provide fast and effective user
environment for Call center activities. This application software is based on Model view
controller architecture. The Client side forms used for display forms the view, database
connections, business logics are developed and are represented as models, while controllers are
pages used to link model with the view.
There is a product support team consisting of three groups. Their duty is to attend the
customer, make new problem report, solving the problems and test the product before giving
back to the customer. The manager form deals with the Report generation and modification of
customer details entered by call agent. In the primitive two-tier architecture the validations of the
data are performed in client side or at the server side. This caused the delay in data retrieval and
transmission.
This project is designed in such a way that the end user of the product need be aware of
inner workings but to know only his duty and to operate the keyboard. Computerized records are
easy to maintain and at the end of every month or whenever we need information it’s easy to
view or get. In this way reports can be generated anytime and one can be sure that data when the
pattern is changed the consolidated reports may not show us correct data of all administration
work pertaining to the call centre. Collection details will be accurate as the related data is
systematically entered.
This manpower is reduced, user easily to collect the information about the product and
also collect the operation of the product. At the time of product installation if any problem arise
easily customer contact the call center and rectify the installation problem through the online.
This is the advantages when details are computerized.
At any point, system users can look up the status of the problem, and comments to it, and
route the problem to its next destination. Each routing is accompanied by e-mail sent to the new
problem owner.
