Skills-Based Routing
What is Skills-Based Routing?
Contact centers use Skill-based Routing (SBR) as a call-assignment strategy to align incoming calls to the best fitting associates, rather than the next available approach.
Delivering exceptional customer experiences (CX) requires effective problem resolution abilities. That's why it's so important to direct callers to someone who can help resolve a customer's issue the first time, rather than provide a disjointed, jarring CX with multiple transfers and long hold-times.
TTEC's Skill-Based Routing ensures incoming calls are routed to the right person in the company who is properly trained to assist the customer. Our solutions are designed to increase customer satisfaction by reducing unnessesary transfers and decreasing the Average Handle Time (AHT). Our routing controls make it easy to update routing changes in real time to continually improve business performance.
