How it works

Participating organisations provide data against a series of core questions during a one-month window. We have invited Sabio to support you as you gather your data.

The responses are analysed. Correlations are drawn and scores provided against 25+ key contact centre metrics. A report is then sent to individual participants.

Each report states the score for the participant compared to the score in the Sabio Index, the UKs largest benchmarking survey tool. Additional commentary is provided giving guidance on areas for improvement. Interpreting the results and identifying goals and action plans to focus your efforts to improve your scores is a key purpose for participating. To help you do this, consultants from Sabio will reach out to help you complete the questions and will be on hand to talk you through the outcomes and give you advice and guidance on what actions you could focus on.

For more information please read the FAQ.

 

Which metrics are benchmarked?

There are three groups of metrics: Customer Measures, Operational Measures and People Measures.

The Customer Measures will look at metrics such as overall NPS, call quality monitoring volumes, and the average first contact resolution.

Operational Measures includes abandon rate, team manager to advisor ratio and total shrinkage.

While People Measures will consider advisor starting salaries, total advisor attrition, total advisor absences and hybrid working model which advisors work.
