Help Desk or Call Centre Audit
This inbound call handling solution is offered as a two-stage review; it provides an effective analysis of a customer’s first contact with your business and consists of:

Complementary Audit: - a high level review of your existing call handling processes, incoming call management and call centre management including the quality of phone interaction with customers; our contact centre consultants identify quick wins and immediate areas for improvements.

Advanced Audit: a detailed analysis of all interfaces between the help desk, contact or call centre agents, processes and technology; our contact centre consultancy identifies the best possible service channels, provides automated call handling for simple calls, eliminates inefficient procedures, sets up self service options, improves the overall call messaging and out of hours service and finally, recommends a prioritised summary of other cost-effective inbound call handling improvements.

The Call Centre Audit can help your business to:

  • Eliminate unnecessary repeat and transferred calls and call overflow.
  • Reduce the number of unanswered inbound inquiries.
  • Reduce call waiting times including the ring time to answer.
  • Divert simple inquiries across automated self-service channels.


These benefits are often translated into lower costs of serving each customer, automated call handling, improved overall customer/agent satisfaction and customer loyalty, as well as increased sales resulting from cross-selling other products.
