2007 Call Center First Call Resolution Guide
First call resolution (FCR) is a unique key performance indicator (KPI) that measures the effectiveness, efficiency and customer satisfaction level of a call center. It is the ONLY single metric that provides a balanced view of the call center’s overall operating performance.

This white paper is a guide for building an actionable FCR program for your call center.

Despite their popularity, however, most dashboards live up to only a fraction of their potential. They fail, not because of poor technology—at least not primarily—but because of poor design. The more critical that information is to the well being of the business, the more grievous is the failure, because the remedy is so readily available.
