System and method of automated routing and guidance based on continuous customer and customer service representative feedback
The present invention is a system and method of routing incoming communications to a CSR and providing guidance to the CSR based on the incoming communication using feedback information such as sentiment feedback, survey feedback, and feedback from actions taken by CSRs based on skill level. A CEC system receives an incoming communication, analyzes the communication and creates metadata based off of the analysis. The metadata is used by the RAE routing module to route the communication to an appropriate party. The metadata is also used by the GAE guidance module to determine the guidance to provide to the CSR. The CSR then performs an action based on the guidance. The CEC system continues to monitor the interaction until the interaction is completed. The communication metadata, the communication, the guidance, and the CSRs action are all provided to a RAS rules analysis module wherein the RAS analyzes the data and automatedly updates the rules (RAR and GAR) according to the analysis.
1. A method for routing based on a client sentiment data, comprising:
providing a customer engagement center (CEC) system, wherein the CEC is configured to receive incoming communications from outside the CEC system;
receiving an incoming communication at the CEC;
generating the client sentiment data for the incoming communication based on an analysis of the incoming communication;
performing a routing analysis of the incoming communication based on the client sentiment data and a set of routing analytics rules (RAR);
selecting at least one customer service representative (CSR) designation to receive the incoming communication;
performing an analysis of the set of RAR based on the client sentiment data and the selected at least one CSR designation; and
updating the set of RAR based on the analysis.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the client sentiment data is generated as a set of communication metadata.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the routing analysis is based on the set of communication metadata including the client sentiment data.
4. The method of claim 1 , the method further comprising providing at least one of the incoming communication or the client sentiment data to the CSR designation.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the CSR designation is at least one of a CSR, a CSR group, a queue, or a queue group.
6. A system for routing of incoming communications based on a client sentiment data, comprising:
a customer engagement center, wherein the CEC is configured to receive incoming communications from outside of the CEC, the CEC including:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer readable medium programmed with computer readable code that upon execution by the processor causes the processor to:
receive an incoming communication at the CEC,
generate the client sentiment data for the incoming communication based on an analysis of the incoming communication,
perform a routing analysis of the incoming communication based on the client sentiment data and a set of routing analytics rules (RAR),
select at least one customer service representative (CSR) designation to receive the incoming communication,
perform an analysis of the set of RAR based on the client sentiment data and the selected at least one CSR designation, and
update the set of RAR based on the analysis.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the client sentiment data is generated as a set of communication metadata.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the routing analysis is based on the set of communication metadata including the client sentiment data.
9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further instructed to provide at least one of the incoming communication or the client sentiment data to the CSR designation.
10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the CSR designation is at least one of a CSR, a CSR group, a queue, or a queue group.
11. A method of providing guidance based on a client sentiment data, comprising:
providing a customer engagement center (CEC) system, wherein the CEC system is configured to receive and store incoming communications from outside the CEC system;
receiving an incoming communication at the CEC and a set of stored data associated with the incoming communication;
generating the client sentiment data for the incoming communication based on an analysis of the incoming communication and the set of stored data;
performing a guidance analysis for the incoming communication based on the client sentiment data and a set of guidance analytics rules (GAR);
assigning at least one guidance to the incoming communication based on the guidance analysis;
receiving a customer service representative (CSR) action associated with the incoming communication;
performing an analysis of the set of GAR using a rules analytics service (RAS) software module based on the client sentiment data and the CSR action; and
updating the set of GAR based on the analysis.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the client sentiment data is generated as a set of communication metadata.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the guidance analysis is based on the set of communication metadata which includes the client sentiment data.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the set of stored data associated with the incoming communication includes a CSR designation, wherein the CSR designation is at least one of a CSR, a CSR group, a queue, or a queue group.
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the set of stored data associated with the incoming communication includes at least one previous client sentiment data, further wherein the guidance analysis is based on all of the client sentiment data including the at least one previous client sentiment data.
16. A system for guidance of incoming communications based on a client sentiment data, comprising:
a customer engagement center, wherein the CEC is configured to receive incoming communications from outside of the CEC, the CEC including:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer readable medium programmed with computer readable code that upon execution by the processor causes the processor to:
provide a customer engagement center (CEC) system, wherein the CEC system is configured to receive and store incoming communications from outside the CEC system,
receive an incoming communication at the CEC and a set of stored data associated with the incoming communication,
generate the client sentiment data for the incoming communication based on an analysis of the incoming communication and the set of stored data,
perform a guidance analysis for the incoming communication based on the client sentiment data and a set of guidance analytics rules (GAR),
assign at least one guidance to the incoming communication based on the guidance analysis,
receive a customer service representative (CSR) action associated with the incoming communication,
perform an analysis of the set of GAR using a rules analytics service (RAS) software module based on the client sentiment data and the CSR action, and
update the set of GAR based on the analysis.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the client sentiment data is generated as a set of communication metadata.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the guidance analysis is based on the set of communication metadata which includes the client sentiment data.
19. The system of claim 16 , wherein the set of stored data associated with the incoming communication includes a CSR designation, wherein the CSR designation is at least one of a CSR, a CSR group, a queue, or a queue group.
20. The system of claim 16 , wherein the set of stored data associated with the incoming communication includes at least one previous client sentiment data, further wherein the guidance analysis is based on all of the client sentiment data including the at least one previous client sentiment data.
